What Quentin Tarantino and a very special Disney princess have to do with Star Wars: The Acolyte leaves you wanting more.
It’s finally out, the first trailer for the new Star Wars live-action series on Disney Plus. What time does The Acolyte take place? The action will take place approximately 100 years before Star Wars: Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace. What is the new Star Wars series about? A wise Jedi master, played by Lee Jung-jae (of Squid Game fame), must solve a dark crime.
What is the plot of the new Star Wars series The Acolyte?
Apparently a mysterious figure (Amandla Stenberg from The Hunger Games) is hunting the Guardians of the Galaxy. He is assisted by Dafne Keen (Logan, The Wolverine) and Carrie Anne-Moss (The Matrix). According to the director and screenwriter Leslye Headland Star Wars: The Acolyte is a mix of Frozen and Kill Bill. I’m sorry, what? This requires an explanation.
This one rather unusual role models could be clues to the apparently evil character of Power Stenberg give. In Frozen, the main character Anna turns away from her family and friends because of her special abilities and bitterly turns her back on humanity. But Quentin Tarantino’s bloody masterpiece Kill Bill also allows for some conclusions.
The main character in the two-parter, the played by Uma Thurman and is simply called “The Bride”, embarks on an unprecedented campaign of revenge because of a great injustice that has happened to her. And we can probably expect something similar with Star Wars: The Acolyte.
When will the new Star Wars series come out?
A few more weeks of patience are still required. The Acolyte is scheduled to be released in June. Leslye Headland, the creator of the series, announced that the events will be followed from the perspective of the Jedi on the one hand, and from the perspective of the seemingly evil ones on the other. What does Acolyte mean in English?
The title of the new one Star Wars-Serie could be translated as companion, follower, servant or even comrade. Does Amandla Stenberg’s character act on behalf of the Sith? We’ll know more soon. The new Star Wars series The Acolyte will celebrate its premiere with a double episode on June 4th, 2024 – exclusively on Disney Plus.
