Will Jyn Erso Return To Star Wars Universe
In 2016, Felicity Jones burst onto the Hollywood scene as Jyn Erso, the lead character in what many consider one of the finest Star Wars movies ever made. However, despite her excellent performance, Jyn’s fate was sealed, and she perished before the credits rolled.
However, with the success of Andor, which explores the backstory of Diego Luna’s character from Rogue One before his demise, there’s speculation that Felicity Jones might return to the Star Wars universe.
The actress recently spoke about the possibility of her return to the Star Wars franchise during her appearance on BBC’s The One Show while promoting her latest film, Dead Shot. Despite her character’s death in Rogue One, Jones has been discussing the potential for her to reprise her role in the popular franchise, sparking rumors among fans.

Jones revealed during her appearance on BBC’s The One Show that she wouldn’t be appearing in the second season of Andor, but expressed her desire for her character to make a comeback in the future potentially.
“I’m afraid to say I won’t be, but I still have hope for Jyn Erso at some point to make a comeback. But no, sadly I won’t be.”
Unfortunately, including Jyn Erso in the second season of Andor would pose a challenge, as she doesn’t cross paths with Cassian Andor until the events of Rogue One, making any interaction prior to that unlikely.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is available for streaming on Disney+.
