==Biography==
Dan Gilroy was one of the writers for the Andor television series. In November, 2019 in New York, the first writers room session with Gilroy and fellow writers Tony Gilroy and Beau Willimon only lasted five or six days. Dan and Tony had a similar skill set, and they got to work on the heist arc, which they were familiar with due to their previous work. The writers knew they were doing the prison on Narkina 5, though it took the group a couple days to figure out how to make it unique from other prisons. To make the prison the opposite of dark and gritty, they made it brightly lit and antiseptic. The writers decided the prisoners would build things on a factory floor and the floor would be electrified. They then they realized the guards would need to wear rubber boots. In an early iteration of the story, the prisoners would steal the boots to escape.
Dan Gilroy wrote the episodes "Aldhani," "The Axe Forgets," and "The Eye." Dan, Tony, and Willimon brought in Tom Bissell to work as a writer for Season 2. The writers spent about seven days in the writer's room working on the season.
