Synopsis
In the final days of the High Republic Era, the powers of the dark side are growing in the shadows
With the galaxy in a time of prosperity, the Sith are outnumbered and living at the margins. In this gilded-age, the Jedi rule over a peaceful galaxy and still it seems that something lurks in the corners. The Acolyte follows the story of an ardent devotee at a time when the dark side is an underground countercultural force. Leading up to the events that see the reemergence of the Sith, The Acolyte shows the beginning of that journey from obscurity to the central force that rules the galaxy. Reuniting a padwan with their Jedi master, the pair are put forward for an investigation into a series of crimes.
Why To Watch The Acolyte?
Essential viewing for fans of Ahsoka
Viewers who loved Ahsoka's female-led story and deep dive into Star Wars lore will be delighted by The Acolyte. The new series continues probing witches and the mythical side of the Force but sets itself apart from other series by focusing on the lesser-known High Republic era. With powerful performances from Amandla Stenberg, Dafne Keen, and Lee Jung-jae and an interesting twin twist, The Acolyte is a refreshing story. It ultimately still has the exciting and adventurous feel of a typical Star Wars show but offers viewers a new side of the galaxy and Jedi Order.

The Acolyte takes Star Wars fans on a great adventure
Disney’s latest Star Wars series The Acolyte takes place roughly 100 years before Episode I – The Phantom Menace and begins with the unexplained murder of a Jedi. What follows is a fantastically fresh and unique adventure, giving Star Wars fans something that feels new and different, while still being very much rooted in a galaxy far, far away. The Acolyte also seems to have taken some pointers from Marvel, with the show having a similar spirit to Guardians of the Galaxy. Since the series takes place so early in the Star Wars timeline, it’s also a great place for new fans to be introduced to the franchise.
