As you may know, the Star Wars Celebration is a fan gathering to celebrate the Star Wars franchise. Last year’s celebration, especially, shook the world as it featured first exclusive trailers for The Mandalorian Season 3, Ahsoka, Star War: Tales of Jedi and all platform public trailers for Andor, Visions, and Bad Batch etc. This year too Star Wars has followed the same suite and revealed some exclusive and unexpected trailers at the celebration. While we didn’t expect Andor Season 2 or Skeleton Crew teasers, we sure were waiting for Ahsoka and The Acolyte trailer! While Ahsoka trailer is now available for public, The Acolyte trailer was shown exclusively to the Celebration event audience. Well, it obviously leaked on various platforms and that is exactly what this article is about!
Watch Star Wars: The Acolyte Leaked Trailer Here
For those who are unaware, in the universe of Star Wars, an acolyte refers to individuals with force abilities who learn from a more experienced Sith Lord. Star Wars: The Acolyte series for Disney+ is being developed by the co-creator of the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series Russian Doll, and Leslye Headland. As for the The Acolyte Season 1 footage/teaser revealed at the Star Wars celebration, all you need to do is click on the video below. Unfortunately we just have the first 45 seconds of the teaser as the final few minutes haven’t been leaked yet however, we do have the full description. So first, check out the leaked teaser below!
The footage begins with a group of younglings, all types of humans and aliens, being trained by a Jedi Master in bright white robes played by Lee Jung-jae. “Close your eyes. Your eyes can deceive you. We must not trust them,” he says as we see a very run-down, busy village where a hooded figure walks down the street. “The Force is powerful. It’s a power we must respect,” the Jedi master’s speech continues. Inside a bar, a Jedi is sitting, played by Carrie-Anne Moss. For some reason, the Jedi and this hooded figure, played by Stenberg, begin to fight. Stenberg’s character looks like a ninja, complete with a black mask covering the bottom of their face.
The rest of the footage plays mostly in montage: We see footage inside what looks like a Jedi temple. Several younger Jedi (Keen and Barnett) sneak through tight spaces. Someone is scaling up the side of a temple. There’s a scene in the snow. A Neimoidian appears. And finally, Stenberg’s character says over the montage, “This isn’t about good or bad. This is about power. And who is allowed to use it.” The final shot is of around eight Jedi standing in the woods, with Jung-jae’s character in the middle. He lights up his lightsaber, and then all the other Jedi join him, igniting their own blades of all different colors. The vibes we got were sort of a samurai movie mixed with a heist movie, but with a lot of Jedi.
The footage ends with the reveal that the show, which is in production for another few weeks, will be premiering in 2024! Also, checked out the leaked Andor Season 2 trailer here!
