It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything concrete about the next live-action “Star Wars” project coming to Disney+. But, according to the brand’s official social medias, we’re getting….something….tomorrow. Chances are it’ll be a teaser, *possibly* a full trailer for “Star Wars: The Acolyte.”
Set in the High Republic (at least 100 years before the action in the “Star Wars” prequel trilogy), a former Padawan will reunite with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes, but the forces they confront are more sinister than they ever anticipated.
Leslye Headland created the show, which stars Amandla Stenberg, Jodie Turner-Smith , Lee Jung-Jae, Charlie Barnett, Rebecca Henderson, Dean-Charles Chapman, Dafne Keen, and Carrie-Anne Moss.
According to today’s poster, the series will hit Disney+ June 4th, 2024. We’ll let you know what releases tomorrow!
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
