With its High Republic setting and Sith perspective, The Acolyte can drastically reshape the franchise and harrow in a new era of Star Wars TV shows.
The upcoming High Republic-era Star Wars Disney+ TV show The Acolyte could be more important and consequential than people realize. Leslye Headland's project was revealed as one of the many new Star Wars TV shows in late 2020, and finally, its time is coming. Filming for the first season commenced in October 2022, putting The Acolyte on target for a likely early 2024 release date.
The Acolyte is a fantastic vessel for all sorts of new story and storytelling devices given its perspective and setting. There’s plenty of freedom that would come with the era - far more than even The Mandalorian, as The Acolyte and any potential spin-offs could be farther removed from the Skywalker saga regardless of their connection to the Jedi or the Republic.
