Where is Yoda in The Acolyte? Why the Star Wars Jedi isn't involved, explained
Questions, we have

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Acolyte, Star Wars' brand new show, has finally hit Disney Plus – and, though it's set in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:High Republic era, long before the prequels, there are a handful of Jedi with lifespans long enough to be around this far back on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars timeline.
One of those Jedi is Yoda, who, at this time, is actually the Grand Master of the Jedi Order. Naturally, then, you might be expecting him to show up in The Acoly🌟te.

Showrunner Leslyeไ Headland has also denied that Yoda will be in the show. "Can you imagine? Can you imagine if they were like, 'No problem. You can use Yoda. Not a big deal. Go for it,'" she said in an interview with . "No, there is not [a Yoda cameo]. We are pulling char🌱acters from the High Republic and characters from EU [the Expanded Universe, AKA Legends]. That's it."
By the sounds of it, then, we won't be seeing Yoda – though, never say never. It would fit pretty neatly with The Acolyte's representation of the Jedi Order if its Grand Master never did show up, though. After all, the show is exploring the faults of the Jedi, all inevitably leading to the fall of the Republic as depicted in the prequeꦿls. Yoda sitting out a huge crisis like a mysterious Sith Lord and string of Jedi murders would tie nicely into that theme…
