Star Wars faced a difficult year in 2024 with negative backlash, show cancellations, and an uncertain future. The release of The Acolyte was particularly challenging, facing review bombing and online harassment that likely contributed to its quick cancellation. While 2024 saw some positive additions like Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, the franchise needs to make key decisions in 2025 to avoid further decline.
After a somewhat rocky 2024, Star Wars has a lot riding on 2025. It's no real secret that Star Wars movies and TV shows have struggled in recent years, especially when it comes to positive reception and audience engagement. 2024 saw some particularly intense negativity, especially when it came to The Acolyte .

The Acolyte suffered from review bombing before the show had even premiered, and things did not get better from there—in fact, they got much worse. As The Acolyte was being released, there was a shocking amount of vitriol online, with comments targeting and harassing the show's actors and creators. While Lucasfilm has yet to confirm whether this was the true reason, this harsh backlash almost certainly contributed to The Acolyte's cancelation, which came surprisingly quickly after the show had concluded. This is unfortunately symptomatic of larger issues within the franchise and is not limited to just The Acolyte (although this show seems to have gotten the worst of it this year
