One of Star Wars' most exciting new shows, The Acolyte, may debut a lightwhip, one of the most unique lightsaber variants in the entire galaxy. During Star Wars Celebration 2023 in London, it was confirmed that an existing character from the High Republic books and comics would have a role in The Acolyte, the first live-action High Republic series set 100 years before the events of the Skywalker saga. As such, this creates an exciting opportunity for one of the coolest lightsaber upgrades.
