Star Wars: The Acolyte Debuts 1st Trailer

Things started firming up this week for the Star Wars: The Acolyte series as the first prop poster arrived below for it and has confirmed the presumed June 4th, 2024 release date that has surfaced in a few unconfirmed areas.

Now, the first trailer for it has arrived as well.

“I’m really in love with Leslye’s work,” Amanda Stenberg said last year. “She has a really emotionally profound way to approach the darker parts of ourselves. For a show like this that’s set in this time period, that style is perfect.”

Jung-jae talked about his role last year, saying, “I play the Jedi Master. It was the first time I touched a lightsaber and I’m still shaking from the experience.”

The cast that we knew originally consisted of Amandla Stenberg, Jodie Turner-Smith, Manny Jacinto, and Lee Jung-jae. Now, a few more have been added with Dafne Keen (His Dark Materials), Rebecca Henderson (Inventing Anna), Charlie Barnett (Russian Doll), Dean-Charles Chapman (1917) and Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix).

Plot Concept: The Acolyte is a mystery-thriller that will take the audience into a galaxy of shadowy secrets and emerging dark side powers in the final days of the High Republic era. A former Padawan reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes, but the forces they confront are more sinister than they ever anticipated.
