‘Star Wars The Acolyte’ originally included a kiss between Manny Jacinto's character Qimir and Osha, who is played by Amandla Stenberg
Manny Jacinto, who plays Qimir a.k.a The Stranger, revealed that he filmed a romantic scene with costar Amandla Stenberg that ended up on the cutting room floor.
Jacinto recalled the discussions about Osha and Qimir's slow-burn romance, adding, “The Stranger killed a bunch of her friends, and she just killed her fatherlike figure . For them to have this sensual moment just didn’t feel like it was appropriate.” During the season 1 finale, Osha killed Sol after learning that he was responsible for her twin sister Mae's death. Osha's lightsaber ultimately turned red as she veered closer to the dark side — and subsequently decided to take Qimir up on his offer to train her.
Creator Leslye Headland also mentioned how Stenberg, 25, and Jacinto worked together to build Osha and Qimir's connection.
