Disney’s Latest ‘Star Wars’ Spin-Off Depicts Rape of ‘Undocumented Migrant’ by Imperial Officer

It doesn’t take a genius to read between the lines of Disney’s latest political stunt.

Disney’s latest Star Wars spin-off series Andor has made an less-than-subtle jab at the conservative right by featuring a scene of “Imperial Officer” trying to rape “undocumented migrant.”

While the incident obviously takes place within the Star Wars universe, it is clearly intended to mirror President Trump’s policy of ending the flow of illegal immigration.

The Hollywood Reporter details:

Yet even by Andor standards, a scene from the second season is leaving fans shocked: An Imperial officer tries to violently rape a Rebel fugitive, Bix Caleen (Adria Arjona), who is hiding out in a farming settlement while Imperial troops are rounding up “undocumented” citizens (read some sample reactions below).

The sequence plays out over the course of the show’s third episode (the first three episodes were released all at once on Tuesday) with the officer’s flirtation with Bix turning growing increasingly persistent and eventually cumulating with a brutal life-and-death struggle.

Bix eventually gets the upper hand and the officer is killed. But Andorboldly leaves zero ambiguity as to what viewers just witnessed as Bix screams, “He tried to rape me!”

Star Wars is a franchise that has never — in film form — shown even consensual sex. During its first season, Andor pushed the envelope with scenes that suggested sex was about to take place, or just had (much like old Hollywood films during the Hays Code censorship era).

Sadly, many illegal immigrants are indeed sexually assaulted as they attempt to cross the southern border, although this is nearly always at the hands of criminal traffickers and those in a position to exploit them.

The political nature of the scene was picked up by those on the left, who described it as the “real world seeping into Star Wars storytelling.”

Asked about his decision to include the scene in the series, director Tony Gilroy framed it as a reflection of modern warfare rather than anything specific to America.

“I get one shot to tell everything I know — or can discover, or that I’ve learned — about revolution, about battles, with as many incidents and as many colors as I can get in there, without having [the story] tip over,” he explained.

“I mean, let’s be honest, man: The history of civilization, there’s a huge arterial component of it that’s rape. All of us who are here — we are all the product of rape. I mean armies and power throughout history [have committed rape].

“So to not touch on it, in some way … It just was organic and it felt right, coming about as a power trip for this guy. I was really trying to make a path for Bix that would ultimately lead to clarity — but a difficult path to get back to clarity.”
