Disney+ has canceled the Star Wars series The Acolyte after its first season, surprising actor Lee Jung-jae, who played Jedi Master Sol. Despite his character's death in the finale, Jung-jae expressed hope for a potential revival of the show, praising creator Leslye Headland's writing and storytelling. The show received mixed reviews, with an audience score of just 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, despite initially strong viewership numbers, including 11.1 million views in its first week. Headland had previously mentioned she was not informed about a second season, but outlined several storylines she wished to explore. The cancellation highlights Disney's ongoing efforts to reduce streaming content costs. Future Star Wars projects are still in the pipeline, including the upcoming release of Skeleton Crew in December.
