Summary The Acolyte is raising new questions about how old Manny Jacinto's Sith Lord really is. In The Acolyte episode 6, "Teach/Corrupt", we learn a lot more about the newly-unmasked antagonist. Through his conversations with Osha, the Stranger reveals that he used to be a Jedi, and he shows her a mysterious scar on his back. Incredibly, the Sith Lord revealed his cortosis helmet renders him unable to see, meaning he was fighting the Jedi blind.
Related After Many Disappointments, Manny Jacinto Is The Best Used Hype Star Wars Actor In Years Disney and Lucasfilm have created a trend of hype-casting amazing actors, but underutilizing them. Will The Acolyte's Manny Jacinto change things? Osha joined the Jedi Order 16 years before the events of The Acolyte. If there was a fallen Jedi during her time, she almost certainly would have heard rumors about that. Some have pointed out that the Stranger's scar looks like it could have been caused by a whip. That might link him to Jedi Master Vernestra Rwoh, who is 116 years old by the time her lightsaber whip is unveiled in this episode.
