Adria Arjona joined the Star Wars universe in the 2022 Disney+ series Andor. She joined the cast, playing the role of Bix Caleen, a mechanic and black-market dealer from the planet Ferrix. She works at Timm Karlo's (James McArdle) salvage yard and is connected to several black market dealers and buyers. Bix Caleen is one of the oldest friends of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna). Andor also hinted at a romantic history between Bix Caleen and Cassian Andor.

Arjona's character, Bix, plays an important role in helping Cassian Andor connect with the enigmatic Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgard). Luthen Rael inspired Andor to join the rebel alliance and help make the alliance larger.

Star Wars: Andor is a prequel to the events of the film Rogue One (2016). Andor traces the story of how Cassian Andor formed the rebel alliance after getting radicalized against the Galactic Empire. The series achieved immense critical acclaim and helped put Adria in the spotlight once again. The first season of Andor was nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards.

Bix Caleen will play an important role in the upcoming second season of the series. The final moments of the first season saw Bix witness the death of her boyfriend, Timm Karlo. Since Timm was killed by a squad of Pre-Mor officials, Bix might be prompted to join the resistance.

Bix Caleen's relationship with Cassian Andor might also see significant improvements as they get entrenched into Luthen Rael's resistance movement.
