The upcoming High Republic-era Star Wars Disney+ TV show The Acolyte could be more important and consequential than people realize. Leslye Headland's project was revealed as one of the many new Star Wars TV shows in late 2020, and finally, its time is coming. Filming for the first season commenced in October 2022, putting The Acolyte on target for a likely early 2024 release date. There’s a high probability that some footage will be shown to special guests at 2023’s Star Wars Celebration in London, with more information trickling out over the next year.
