The Acolyte
Overview
About a hundred years before The Phantom Menace, at the end of the High Republic era, the Jedi are at their height — and something is already going wrong in the dark. Leslye Headland's Star Wars mystery thriller follows a former Padawan (Amandla Stenberg) who reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes, only to uncover a conspiracy that leads them toward the dark side. Lee Jung-jae plays the Jedi Master, Manny Jacinto a mysterious stranger, and Dafne Keen a Jedi Knight, in a story that treats the Force's shadow as a mystery to be solved rather than a battle to be won. The question isn't just who committed the crimes — it's what the investigation will reveal about the Jedi themselves.
