Amandla Stenberg talks about playing twins Mae and Osha in Disney+'s 'Star Wars' series that's set in the High Republic era, alongside Lee Jung-jae, who stars as Master Sol.
Amandla Stenberg describes herself as “an average enjoyer of ‘Star Wars’” before joining “Star Wars: The Acolyte.” The actor, known best for her roles in films such as “The Hate U Give” . “Bodies Bodies Bodies” and “The Hunger Games” , watched and loved the “Star Wars” films when she was younger. But it wasn’t until she was cast in “The Acolyte” that she delved deeper into the franchise’s lore.
” The master-apprentice dynamic has been a part of 'Star Wars' storytelling since the beginning. Jedi are required to adhere to strict codes restricting they ways they express emotions and form attachments, and both Stenberg and Lee praise Headland for taking a different approach for the bond between Osha and Sol. Stenberg also credits Lee for the way the relationship soars. “JJ imbued the character with so much warmth and heart in only a way that he could,” says Stenberg.
