Severance S2 reportedly costs $15–20 million per episode to make, and Apple+'s average original series budget is ~$10M/ep.: https://www.gq.com/story/severance-season-2-delayed-behind-the-scenes-drama https://www.gq.com/story/severance-season-2-delayed-behind-t...
Andor S1's budget was reportedly $250M for 12 episodes ($20.8M/ep): https://www.ign.com/articles/andor-season-1-reported-budget-250-million https://www.ign.com/articles/andor-season-1-reported-budget-...
Which is more expensive than the combined budgets for The Mandalorian S1 and the upcoming Skeleton Crew S1. Tony Gilroy outright said:
“We got lucky making this during the gold rush a few years ago. A lot of people now have cold feet, and you can’t do this show inexpensively.”

- prepend 3y agoThat’s weird about Andor’s budget. They don’t have complicated effects and no huge names in the cast. At least Severence had lots of named actors.
- Apocryphon 3y agoReally lavish sets and impressive costuming, though.
- kyriakos 3y agoAndor had a big variety of settings, lots of outdoor scenes and the sfx were of better quality than mandalorian by far.
