Lee Jung-jae as Sol looking determined in The Acolyte
The Big Picture Given the lighter tone and idealistic themes, Star Wars has a reputation for having a very black and white sense of morality. That said, the series has not been afraid to shy away from broader social commentary on select occasions and Episode 7 of The Acolyte remains one of the most interesting commentaries upon the Jedi since the prequel trilogy two full decades ago.
Release Date June 4, 2024 Cast Carrie-Anne Moss , Amandla Stenberg , Lee Jung-jae , Manny Jacinto , Dafne Keen , Jodie Turner-Smith , Rebecca Henderson , Charlie Barnett , Dean-Charles Chapman Seasons 1 Studio Disney+ Franchise Star Wars Even the Greatest Jedi in ‘The Acolyte’ Struggle With Attachment When Obi Wan Kenobi reminisces about the Jedi Order during the original film, he describes them as being paragons of virtue, but the truth is never so simple.
Perhaps nobody in the order knows the difficulty of this barrier than Anakin, whose own trauma leaves him with an obsessive fear of loss. We've already seen Jedi like Yord come off as being arrogant with their own beliefs, but Anakin combines this with unprecedented power to create an existential threat to the Jedi Order itself when he falls.
Another factor that should be noted is how the Jedi and the Sith have been dependent upon each other for most of their history, especially since the Jedi are heavily implied to have unwittingly created the Sith through their own dogmatic views. Ironically, one could argue that the supposed destruction of the Sith was the worst thing to ever happen to the Jedi, since it caused them to become stagnant and left serving the Republic as their only remaining purpose.
