The level of secrecy on Disney\u2019s prized franchises is known to be on another level. Between Marvel and Star Wars<\/a>, script and set leaks are something the studio wants to keep the spigot closed on. But it turns out that sometimes tight security makes the work challenging for its stars, including certain cast members of the hit Disney+ show Andor.<\/a><\/p>\n

The nugget of behind the scenes lore was revealed while Andor star Diego Luna, who is currently doing a stint hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live,<\/a> had own his Star Wars universe co-star Adria Arjona on to reminisce about shooting the Disney+ series. He brought up that production resorted to high-tech alternatives for its actors to learn their lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey wouldn\u2019t print a script for you because you would lose it. So we would have iPads to work,\u201d Luna explained of the protocol before asking Arjona how she fared under that decree.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t use it,\u201d she admitted, \u201cI took pictures of it and I printed the whole script.\u201d<\/p>\n

As in pictures of the screen, which Luna cracked was very much in line with the spies they played on the Tony Gilroy show. \u201cYou were so mad at me the first time in rehearsal. You looked at me like, \u2018Adria, they\u2019re gonna find out!\u2019 You were so paranoid.\u201d Arjona revealed, \u201cAnd my answer was like, \u2018Stellan [Skarsg\u00e5rd] did it too.\u2019 I just completely threw Stellan under the bus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember that. Stellan didn\u2019t give an [expletive],\u201d Luna said. \u201cHe was like, \u2018Yes, I\u2019ve been doing it.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Arjona continued, \u201cI just kept doing it. Season two, I did it too.\u201d<\/p>\n

She explained, \u201cI just need the paper. I need to write things down. [The iPad script] also has so many passwords and then I would have ADD and then do something else and then it would lock me out \u2026 it was so complicated. So I printed it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since the ending of Andor featured Arjona\u2019s character holding a real hell of a twist in her arms,<\/a>\u00a0we\u2019d say she was successful.<\/p>\n
