We’ll find out when The Acolyte starts streaming with a two-episode premiere on Disney+ from 4 June. Featuring a cast of multiple playable characters, it is planned to allow players to change the events of the story based on their decisions in-game. It’ll be fascinating to see how The Acolyte excavates an all-new part of the Star Wars timeline, bringing in elements of both the prequels and the High Republic novels while telling its own story – and here’s hoping there’s plenty more of that martial arts action to come when the show drops. Watch the trailer for the next phase of the epic publishing initiative Star Wars: The High Republic. Star Wars Eclipse is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by Quantic Dream and set during the High Republic Era. Could it be Stenberg’s? Or someone else’s? Either way, someone is killing Jedi, and it’s up to the order to find out who. And among whisperings of the dark side (following yesterday’s surprisingly bloody poster), the trailer ends with a shocking flash of red: a Sith lightsaber. Also among the cast are Manny Jacinto, Charlie Barnett, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Joonas Suotamo – the latter playing Wookiee Jedi Kelnacca.Īs for Stenberg, they seem to be the mysterious centre of the show – a knife-wielding fighter who seems to be causing serious trouble for our assembled Jedi. Speaking of which – that Force fight, with Carrie-Anne Moss and Amandla Stenberg pushing each other around? Holy moly, more of that please. It seems to be Squid Game’s Lee Jung-jae taking the lead there, resplendent in those gold High Republic robes – but we also see Carrie-Anne Moss in full Jedi get-up, Dafne Keen as a Theelin with a Padawan braid, and… was that a brief glimpse of Rebecca Henderson as fan-favourite High Republic book character Vernestra Rwoh, with her green skin in the Jedi Temple? While Andor leaned into human drama within the Star Wars galaxy, The Acolyte seems to be going all-out on colourful species, lightsabers, and Force-users.
