Captain Challis' Choice

While watching the second season of Andor, a thought occurred to me: Colm Meany would be wonderful as Lynnic Challis, an Imperial officer with growing doubts about the Empire he serves. I can just see him starting out as a veteran officer of the Old Republic who gets taken in by the Emperor's propaganda, only to slowly realize his duties are becoming more and more onerous. You could do a whole season about one person's choice--to stay safe and support tyranny, or rebel and risk everything? 

I guess that's really just Andor all over again, but with a minor shift in point of view. 

Never mind. Just watch Andor. It's phenomenal.
