None of Season 1’s directors returned for Season 2. A leak on Reddit (from someone whose other reveals had turned out to be true) has said that Tony Gilroy had yelled at Susanna White in front of her crew. Of the three directors, it’s noteworthy that she’s the only one not to do any press for Andor. The reason given for Haynes and Caron not returning is that they’re in-demand and had other projects, but I would question whether filming a single episode of Black Mirror really prevented Haynes from further involvement in Andor.

I’m sure Season 2 will be great, but the new directors don’t all have same level of experience (especially with shooting in the UK), plus many of them will be doing without it a showrunner (although maybe that’s a good thing?)
