The story of The Acolyte will not continue, with Lucasfilm opting not to proceed with a second season of the Star Wars offshoot starring Amandla Stenberg, sources tell Deadline.
Word of the decision comes more than a month after the eight-episode first season of the series from creator, director, executive producer and showrunner Lesley Headland wrapped its run on Disney+.
It wasn’t the worst thing I’ve ever watched, but I didn’t think it was very good. I do think it is a good thing for them to be willing to keep trying different formulas in the StarWars universe though … seem they are going with the shotgun approach to see what hits they get… they spend lots of money, employ lots of people, and every once in a while we get something great.
