The casting ෴news was confirmed during the High Republic panel

Vernestra Rwoh is coming to live action in upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus series The Acolyte. At 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Celebration, it was confirmed that she will 💛be played by Rebecꦺca Henderson during the High Republic panel.
Rwoh is a Mirialan Jedi Knight from the High Republic era and a fan-favorite from her appearances in books and comics. Henderson is a Canadian actor known for her roles in Russian Doll, Inventing Ann♌a, and Westworld.
At the panel, showrunne🌠r Leslye Headland explained Rwoh will be a good representation of where the Jedi are going between the High Republic and the Prequel Trilogy😼. She also teased that she's at a crossroads, and will go from the idealism of the Jedi in the High Republic books to the more restrictive dogma of the Prequel Trilogy over the course of this series. Sounds intriguing... You can see the first image of her in the tweet below.
