On June 5, the first two episodes (out of eight) of the new Star Wars series The Acolyte will be broadcast. An event since it is the first time that such a work explores the events of the High Republic, a prosperous period for Jedi knights.
The official pitch: “While the Jedi Order is at its peak and prosperity reigns in the High Republic, several mysterious crimes are being committed. A respected Jedi master will lead an investigation that will pit him against a dangerous warrior from his past. As new clues emerge, the two embark on a dark path where sinister forces will show them that not everything is always what it seems...”
Return to Strength by Carrie-Anne Moss££££
At the helm of the series is Leslye Headland, to whom we owe the Netflix series Russian Doll (we recommend the first season). Big cast too, led by Carrie-Anne Moss (Matrix) and a whole bunch of quality actors: Amandla Stenberg (Hunger Games), Lee Jung-jae (Squid Game), Manny Jacinto (Top Gun: Maverick), Dafne Keen (Logan), Jodie Turner-Smith (Anne Boleyn), Rebecca Henderson (Call Jane), Charlie Barnett (Russian Doll) and Dean-Charles Chapman (1917).
