How The Acolyte Was Influenced by One of the Greatest Directors of All Time
Its time to return to a galaxy far, far away yet again. Audiences recently saw the debut of The Acolyte, the newest series in Disney+s Star Wars catalog, and it takes us further back in the timeline than ever. The show takes place at the tail end of the High Republic era, set roughly a century before the start of the prequel trilogy, and it focuses on the journey of a respected Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes. Since The Acolyte unfolds before the Sith rose to power, the most exciting prospect is seeing the Jedi at the height of their powers, as well as how their complacency blinded them to impending danger.
