The Lucasfilm portion of the Disney Investor Day 2020 event brought about a lot of surprises. One of the briefly discussed, yet quite interesting Disney+ shows talked about was “The Acolyte”.

Intriguingly described as a “mystery-thriller”, “The Acolyte” could be the first Star Wars Disney+ series that focuses on a character on the Dark Side of the Force.

The creative team is being headed up by Leslye Headland, co-creator of Netflix’s series “Russian Doll”. No release date or additional info has been announced. However, if you want to learn more about the High Republic Era, check out Starwars.com

While we wait for more information on “The Acolyte” check out the Sizzle Reel for the Cassian Andor centric Disney Series, “Andor”.
