The Acolyte producers tease that the show is different to what we've ever seen before, but "still utterly Star Wars in its essence"
Exc𝓡lusive: Th🅰e Acolyte will be something all new for Star Wars

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Acolyte looks like something all new for Star Wars. For one thing, it's the first live-action series to be set during the High Republic era of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars timeline –🦄 but that's not the only way it's shaking up the galaxy far, far away.
As producers Rayne Roberts and Simon Emanuel tell 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SFX magazine in the new issue, which features Doctor Who on the cover, the specifics of The Acolyte's genre is a fresh spin on Star Wars, too. "The detective element is very high in the mix," says🔯 Robeꦑrts. "I would say the story engine of the show is tracking down the assailant. It's not procedural, but they are on the hunt, looking at clues, talking to people and trying to figure out where things might go next."
"It's not a sleuthing show," expands Emanuel, "but it's a show with mysteries and reveals. Hopefully that comes back to [creator] Leslye [Headland]'s puzzle box storytelling, and I think it's going to be re🍎ally rewarding to the audience to see how things unfold. It's a different genre take on Star Wars, but it's still utterly Star Wars in its e🍎ssence."
Of course, Star Wars has dabbled in the sleuthing tradition before with Obi-Wan Kenobi's hunt for Jango Fett in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Attack of the Clones – but, by the sounds of things, The Acolyte is bringing something new to ꦰthe table.
The Acolyte's cast includes Amℱandla Stenberg, Dafne Keen, Jodie Turner-Smith, Joonas Suotamo, Carrie-Anne Moss, Manny Jacinto, Charlie Barnetꦡt, and Lee Jung-jae.
