Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Acolyte showrunner Leslye Headland pitches her dream Star Wars TV show – Knights of the Old Republic. Premiered June 4 on Disney+, the new Star Wars show is set during the final years of the High Republic era, roughly a century before the events of Episode I – The Phantom Menace, as an esteemed Jedi Master investigates a string of crimes and discovers dark forces at play, leading to a clash with a former Padawan.
I've always wanted to explore a live action version of the Knights of the Old Republic game and the character of Kreia. I think it would be a very interesting story to bring to life. The Knights of the Old Republic era is also full of characters that are ripe for exploration. Darth Revan, Bastila Shan, and Darth Malak are layered characters with rich backstories that could be expanded upon. Headland specifically mentions Kreia, a complex character who was a Jedi Master who became the Sith Lord Darth Traya, embodying a unique perspective on the Force that challenges the dichotomy of light and dark.
