- As described in the show’s official synopsis, the new Star Wars series, The Acolyte, stars Amandla Stenberg as Mae, a young woman with a tragic past who gets caught up in a dangerous mystery. On her tail is Lee Jung-jae’s Jedi Master Sol, a strong and respected warrior with a vital connection to Mae. “As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems.” When “all is not what it seems,” who can we trust? Whose intentions are pure? Who’s susceptible to the allure and power of the dark side of the Force?
One of the most curious characters of the bunch? Manny Jacinto’s Qimir, a “shiftless drifter” who appears dedicated to helping Mae. Jacinto insists that while playing Qimir, he leaned into his lightheartedness and the class clown aspect of the character, but given the deadly nature of the mission Mae is on, it’s hard not to be suspicious of everyone she encounters.
In The Acolyte, there are even some different modes of operation among the Jedi. Charlie Barnett’s Yord is considered to be an overachiever and all-around A+ Jedi, but while at Star Wars Celebration, Barnett mentioned, “Through the development of these characters, you realize that bad and good is at the eyes of the beholder.” Could we see Yord’s perception of others evolve as the story progresses?
And as for Dafne Keen’s Jecki, while she is the proud Padawan to Master Sol, Keen did stress the importance of the fact that, essentially, these children training to become Jedi have been ripped from their homes. She begs the question, “What does it do to a child to take them away from their family, away from their planet, away from their culture, and be thrown into this?”
We’ll start to peel back the layers of all three characters when The Acolyte premieres on Disney+ on June 4, but in the meantime, Barnett, Keen, and Jacinto all offered teases of the paths their characters could be heading down during our interview in celebration of the show’s big debut. You can hear it all straight from the trio in this The Acolyte interview!
