With the recent release of Season 2 of the acclaimed live action Star Wars series, Andor, on Disney + has come a spotlight on one of the architects of the Rebellion, Mon Mothma. Portrayed in the series by Genevieve O’Reilly, reprising the role after her appearance in Rogue One after being CUT from Revenge of the Sith, she has brought the beloved character back into the limelight. Despite her originally only receiving a whopping 26 seconds of screentime in Return of the Jedi, played by the actor Caroline Blakiston, we’re here to set the record straight from a Legends perspective because we’ve known she’s one of the GOATs for decades.
