Someone is killing Jedi…
Set about 100 years before Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, The Acolyte entered an unseen era of Star Wars storytelling in live action when it debuted on Disney+ on June 4, 2024. The series stars Amandla Stenberg as Mae and Osha Aniseya, Lee Jung-jae as Master Sol, and Manny Jacinto as the Stranger, in a clash that pits the Jedi Order against a dark side threat in the final years of the High Republic.
The Acolyte was created by showrunner Leslye Headland (Russian Doll), who also serves as executive producer alongside Kathleen Kennedy, Simon Emanuel, Jeff F. King, and Jason Micallef. Charmaine DeGraté and Kor Adana are the co-executive producers; Rayne Roberts, Damian Anderson, Eileen Shim, and Rob Bredow are producing. Headland also directed the premiere episodes (episodes 101 and 102). Directors Kogonada (episodes 103 and 107), Alex Garcia Lopez (episodes 104 and 105), and Hanelle Culpepper (episodes 106 and 108) round out the directing duties on the series. Michael Abels, known for his work on Get Out and Us, scored The Acolyte. Co-stars include Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, Jodie Turner-Smith, Rebecca Henderson, Dean-Charles Chapman, Joonas Suotamo, and Carrie-Anne Moss.
The Story
Six years after leaving the Jedi Order, Osha, a former Padawan-turned-mechanic must clear her name by reuniting with her respected Jedi Master Sol to solve a series of shocking crimes. What she discovers is far more sinister and personal than she ever imagined.
