That said, Gilroy giving up directing duties doesn’t necessarily mean that more delays are on the way.
Deadline reports that the show has already found Gilroy’s replacement in the form of Toby Haynes, who has helmed episodes of Utopia, Sherlock, and of course an unforgettable episode of Black Mirror.
Tony Gilroy, who co-wrote and co-edited Rogue One before signing on as showrunner for the Cassian Andor series, has dropped out of directing the first three episodes, which is a considerable change as the show evidently heads back toward production.
