The cast of the StarWars series, TheAcolyte, discuss lightsabers, the Jedi temple, practical creatures, and their characters.
We may not know any of their character's names yet, but that doesn't make us any less excited to meet them. On Friday at Star Wars Celebration Europe, the cast of upcoming Star Wars series The Acolyte were on hand, along with showrunner Leslye Headland to offer convention-goers a first look at footage from the new series, which will be set during the late High Republic era of the saga.
"I’m not sure I can say this, but stepping on the set, that was the greatest shock for me because anything you could see on set was real. Such a grand set, but with the small props, such great detail, and I was just in awe of all the efforts and the all the hard work that everyone's put into making that set, it was just so shocking.

Charlie Barnett, who also plays a Jedi knight in the series, singled out the many creatures fans can expect, saying:
