‘Star Wars: The Acolyte’ Trailer: In an Age of Light, a Darkness Rises

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Lucasfilm has released an official trailer for The Acolyte, an upcoming Star Wars series set at the end of the High Republic era. Let’s take a look.

This actually looks interesting, at least to me. The post-Return of the Jedi era just hasn’t been hitting for me lately. With Acolyte, it’s a whole new set of characters witnessing the fall of the High Republic era 100 years before the events of Episode 1. Could be cool, but we’ll have to see.

The Acolyte stars Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-jae, Manny Jacinto, Dafne Keen, Joonas Suotamo, Carrie-Anne Moss, Dean-Charles Chapman, Jodie Turner-Smith, Margarita Levieva, Rebecca Henderson, and Charlie Barnett.

Plot Synopsis:

In The Acolyte, an investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Amandla Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems…

The first two episodes of The Acolyte premiere on Disney+ on June 4, 2024.


What do you guys think? Interested in seeing this at all?
