Yes, That Was Bail Organa
No, you’re not going crazy, that was Bail Organa that popped up briefly to say hi to Mon Mothma during the Imperial Ball. However, this time around, the character wasn’t played by Jimmy Smits but instead by Benjamin Bratt. Don’t worry, Smits isn’t dead or anything like that. Instead, he just couldn’t appear in the show due to a scheduling conflict. It’s a shame that Smits won’t get to finish out Organa’s pre-New Hope storyline, but Bratt is a solid replacement, and I’m happy Organa will be a part of Andor’s final season as the character is a key part of the rebellion.
