The Big Picture It's not a good time to be a Jedi in The Acolyte. Showrunner Leslye Headland's series about a dark side student, Mae , hunting down the former Jedi Masters of her homeworld has left a trail of murdered masters and morally compromised members of the Order in its wake, forcing audiences to confront what it really means to be a Jedi in a changing galaxy.
Release Date June 4, 2024 Cast Carrie-Anne Moss , Amandla Stenberg , Lee Jung-jae , Manny Jacinto , Dafne Keen , Jodie Turner-Smith , Rebecca Henderson , Charlie Barnett , Dean-Charles Chapman Main Genre Sci-Fi Seasons 1 Studio Disney+ Franchise Star Wars Expand ‘The Acolyte’ Starts the Jedi Down the Dark Path They Take in ‘Revenge of the Sith’ The meeting in each Star Wars property is remarkably similar, with both groups of Jedi discussing how best to remove a legitimate danger to the galaxy.
Windu's strategy sounds reasonable in the movie because audience members already know the depth of Darth Sidious's cruelty, but The Acolyte makes it clear that the Jedi are not a better choice to lead the galaxy.
‘The Acolyte’ Demonstrates the Danger of Jedi Becoming Too Involved With Politics Close Since Windu's takeover would also have resulted in the Jedi merging fully with the Republic's political apparatus, The Acolyte serves as a stark reminder of what happens when the Order becomes too involved with their government.
