It’s hard to believe, but for roughly 45 years, audiences across the globe have experienced what it was like a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Since the 1977 film Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, generations of Jedis, Sith lords, and more have wielded the power of the force and explored the dark side. George Lucas’ original trilogy, which made (Hollywood) stars out of Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and the late Carrie Fisher, left an indelible impact on the sci-fi genre, and created an entire world in which audiences could immerse themselves.

Decades have gone by since that original trilogy, which spawned a prequel trilogy, sequel trilogy, and countless spin-off films and TV series. Now, fans of every generation can venture to the farthest reaches of the galaxy and go on new adventures with the likes of Grogu from The Mandalorian, BB-8, and more beloved characters. But a new chapter in the Star Wars saga is finally ready to unfold.

Roughly 6 years after the release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Diego Luna returns as Cassian Andor in the upcoming Disney+ series Andor.

Now that we know the show will debut on Disney+ September 21, we can hardly wait to see what’s in store for the beloved character and company of rebels. Though we know how the story ends, we’re nevertheless ready to board our spaceships and journey past the stars and celestial pathways back into the Star Wars universe. Before Andor starts streaming on Disney+ next month, check out all of your favorite Star Wars movies and TV shows (listed in chronological order) and where you can watch them.

All right, let’s take it back to the beginning — well, chronologically speaking. Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace sets the Star Wars saga in motion by going back to the beginning. The first installment in the late ’90s/early aughts trilogy follows two Jedi knights, Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) and Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), who discover a young Anakin Skywalker, the boy believed to bring balance to the force. All the while, the Sith plot their return. The film also introduced characters like Queen Amidala (Natalie Portman) and more.
