Star Wars: The Acolyte will be the first live-action project set during the High Republic era, and series star Amandla Stenberg says that period will lead to a different kind of story in the faraway galaxy.”In the context of the Star Wars universe, it’s a time of great peace, theoretically,” Stenberg told C Magazine. “It’s also a time of an institution, and it’s a time in which conceptions around the Force are very strict. And I think what we’re trying to explore within our show is when an institution has a singular conception of how power can be used. We try to provide a lot of different perspectives and answers to that question. The idea is to kind of honor the ethos of Star Wars and ideas around the Force and also challenge them, hopefully harmoniously.”The Acolyte is set approximately 100 years before the first prequel trilogy film, Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. The story will primarily follow Stenberg’s former Padawan as she reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes. The series also features Lee Jung-jae (Deliver Us from Evil), Manny Jacinto (Top Gun: Maverick), Dafne Keen (Logan), Jodie Turner-Smith (White Noise), Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix franchise), Margarieta Levieva (Daredevil: Born Again), and Rebecca Henderson (You Hurt My Feelings).
