- “Extra” sits down with “The Acolyte” star Amandla Stenberg and showrunner Leslye Headland to dish on the new series, which is about a former Padawan (Amandla) who reunites with her Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) to investigate a shocking crime spree. Leslye promised that fans will feel the familiarity of Star Wars but teased new plot turns and character twists, as well as lots of action and intrigue! Amandla spoke about preparing for all the action and becoming "obsessed" with the stunt choreography, which was like a powerful dance. “The Acolyte” premieres June 4 on Disney+.
My god all these disney bots in the comments
Clarification please 🙄
@@Fedaygin you're obviously one

@Fedaygin👈bot
cringe AF!
Yeah you sound like one. Broken record with hundreds of others 😮💨
@Fedaygin👈bot
By her predatory glance at that young actress...
YOU CAN TELL, SHE WAS HARVEY WEINSTEIN'S BEST PUPIL
Leslye and the crew is a bunch of mean girls stealing Star Wars from the nerds, now that its trendy to be a Star Wars fan🙄
Unhinged!! They think making a poorly executed TV show is civil rights freedom fighting 😂😂😂
Nah, she is extremely bigoted and racist against white men. This isn't about freedom fighting, it's about hate and racism put forth by a studio that's supposed to make family films. They even have the audacity to call the fans racist and sexist after publicly saying countless racist and sexist shit.
Go woke go broke. I'm not even going to watch a pirate version 😅.
You should watch the pirate version! It's pure comedy... you know the sad shitty kind! But if you have a huge sense of humor, you can still laugh.
And that way, your view is not counted! 🤣
Amanda had already forgotten that her great-great-grandfather was a bIack sIave in the cotton fields of Georgia😂
When I was a kid, I never could have imagined Star Wars would become a show for women and the LGTB community. It’s crazy how times change
It's sad 😢
Disney are doing it on purpose. They're trying to normalize equity and identity politics to bring about a far left society. It's all about population control ultimately.
No, even women are disgusted. I have nothing against LGBT as long as it's not the main story. There is nothing interesting in this series.
Instead of focusing on building an interesting story, they simplify it into a gay romance.
It’s like every other franchise, all being converted to homogenized safe spaces that have shit writing and attack critics with crocodile tears
2 Karen's doing Karen things.
Nothing else to see, move along.
Damage control gonna be needed for this one 😂..We see you Disney 😂
Amandla dad is literally white, lol yall mad cuz she disrespected her white side? I'm sure she doesn't care about what you guys think. Just stfu and don't watch the show
George Lucas 2010, at the Clone Wars Writers’ Meeting:
“The core of the Force-I mean, you got the dark side, the light side, one is selfless, one is selfish, and you wanna keep them in balance. What happens when you go to the dark side is it goes out of balance and you get really selfish and you forget about everybody … because when you get selfish you get stuff, or you want stuff, and when you want stuff and you get stuff then you are afraid somebody is going to take it away from you, whether it’s a person or a thing or a particular pleasure or experience.
Once you become afraid that somebody’s going to take it away from you or you’re gonna lose it, then you start to become angry, especially if you’re losing it, and that anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering. Mostly on the part of the person who’s selfish, because you spend all your time being afraid of losing everything you’ve got instead of actually living.
Where joy, by giving to other people you can’t think about yourself, and therefore there’s no pain. But the pleasure factor of greed and of selfishness is a short-lived experience, therefore you’re constantly trying to replenish it, but of course the more you replenish it, the harder it is to, so you have to keep upping the ante. You’re actually afraid of the pain of not having the joy.
So that is ultimately the core of the whole dark side/light side of the Force. And everything flows from that. Obviously the Sith are always unhappy because they never get enough of anything they want. Mostly, their selfishness centers around power and control. And the struggle is always to be able to let go of all that stuff.
And of course that’s the problem with Anakin ultimately. You’re allowed to love people, but you’re not allowed to possess them. And what he did is he fell in love and married her and then became jealous. Then he saw in his visions that she was going to die, and he couldn’t stand losing her. So in order to not lose her, he made a pact with the devil to be able to become all-powerful. When he did that, she didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore, so he lost her.
Once you are powerful, being able to bring her back from the dead, if I can do that, I can become emperor of the universe. I can get rid of the Emperor. I can make everything the way I want it. Once you do that, you’ll never be satiated. You’re always going to be consumed by this driving desire to have more stuff and be afraid that others are going to take it away from you. And they are. Every time you get two Sith together, you have the master, the apprentice, and the apprentice is always trying to recruit another apprentice to join with him to kill the master. The master knows that basically everybody below him wants his job.
Only way to overcome the dark side is through discipline. The dark side is pleasure, biological and temporary and easy to achieve. The light side is joy, everlasting and difficult to achieve. A great challenge. Must overcome laziness, give up quick pleasures, and overcome fear which leads to hate.”
These people are narcissists
I don't care what anybody says because I want to see another season of the Acolyte because there is still to me more to do with the show yet and explain certain things in the first season. So come on Acolyte season 2.
The amount of views tells you what people really like.
This is in my top 2 of the worst Star Wars productions ever. Ever. #1 was the Christmas special. #2 the Acolyte which is heavily competing for #1.
Absolute horrible screen writing, acting, sequencing, disposable Force/ Star Wars sensibility. A pile of absolute shit!
Christmas Special is epic
PERFORMANCEEEEEE FROM AMANDALA, wild wathcing this for the 1st time now that show is over..... very delu
So excited for this! My favourite part of the trailer is when the force sensitive children have their minds read by the Sorting Hat.
36% on Rotten Tomatoes LOL
14% on Rotten Tomatoes! LOL
Ok after watching these interviews and how sincere these two lafies are im hoing to give it a solid shot - Kreia as an inspiration is great, and Amandla really seems tonhave worked hard. They've sold me on trying it without prejudice. 👌(Plus Amandla looks just like a girl I went to school with).
Her world can end very quickly and will end if acolyte does any worse
the more i hear these interviews with Leslye Headland, the more i realized how much she really understands star wars. She's a hardcore fan.
No i strongly disagree. i was a 77 hardcore fan. no longer.
@@ketchupcommander Ah well that's you & Galactic_Corsair talked about the showrunner 🙂
@@ketchupcommander if you're holding that stance and being that petulant about it; then I'd say you're terribly uninformed.
@@breakevenmonkeyYou aren’t anything resembling a real fan. I’ll be back when this fails to make sure we’re on the same page.
hahahahaha, phew you got me on that one. I laughed out loud, good troll. Well played.
That familiarity for Star Wars Fans Lesley is talking about... yeah... no... she failed completely 😂😂 no grand scale cinematography, boring fights, dull dialog and bad story telling. No proper Star Wars fan felt the "warmth" or "familiarity" with that series.
Complete garbage.
yup!
Dear lord 🤣😂
I just hope it’s not something cliche like an EVIL TWIN twist. That would be disappointing. Otherwise I love seeing Carrie in another kung fu role!
It was lol
DIVERSITY!!!! THE HAIR!!!!!!!!!!! the hair might easily be the worst "enthinc piece"
The worst movie promotion in history. These people are so annoying, you don't ever want to see whatever they may be associated with.
Im so watching this series, i love amandla so much ❤
Girl boss, DEI and terrible writing? Yup, Star Wars is back again. They have been making the same thing for over a decade. Just give it up. Genuinely nobody cares.
Marxist garbage They're trying to ruin society. It's not even about money anymore.
she seems more interested in fashion and music ( violin) . I think maybe she should invest her energy on those things instead of acting . Her acting is not good .
cringe.
This serie it's a bull shit it's a crap massacre to star wars I hate this perdonsy
MARSHEON RO TRUTHERS
So excited for this show
36% on Rotten Tomatoes and dropping LOL
@@NightmareSWGOH And 🤔 I've enjoyed The Acolyte's first 2x episodes. I love Aesthetics, Wardrobe, Sounds & more look El Bueno 🙂 Lee Jung also took the character very well ^^ Have a good time with rest of the season as episodes drop to D+ 🙂 I always wind-down at evening by streaming with "65 Led Telly 🛋🧘
@@Fedaygin LMAO.... 30% and dropping!!!!
@@NightmareSWGOH Mostly cretins take Telly Entertainment advice from that website 🥴 So far after first 2x episodes The Acolyte is solid 8/10 🙂 That to be put later to some websites & well built short'ish review. After 2x episodes the overall Star Wars feeling is right there 🙂
Nice visuals, ear massaging sounds, wardrobe & dialogues not bad at all 🙂 Yord is cool & Sol is a nice Jedi Master 🥳 Waiting to see the witches ^^ Enjoy The Acolyte stream time via Disney+ 🙂
@@NightmareSWGOH that’s okay I like to watch and think for myself. I’m happy I made you smile though
My goodness Amandla is GORGEOUS
Facts man I want a lady like her
@@szn1580Instead you have a piece of rabbit fur for those lonely late evenings.
Indeed & talented actress + violinist 🙂 Have a good time streaming beautiful The Acolyte via D+ & share el bueno word 🙂
First Ahsoka, now The Acolyte...I'm very excited about this series. If, while entertaining us with (hopefully) interesting storylines and great performances, the show manages to upset the toxic fandom with its diversity, that'll make it even better...LETS GO!
toxic fandom? You mean negative reviews? Yes the audience is the problem.😆
“The toxic fandom” made Star Wars possible for George Lucas. Without a fanbase none of the merchandise, books, toys, movies would make any money. Under Disney they have still not returned a profit on the billions they have to Lucas for the IP. There is a reason for that. Good story writing that respects the established lore and more importantly the fan base is what’s needed not “diversity” in an already diverse universe since the beginning.
Disney is doing this on purpose. They're trying to normalize equity and identity politics. They are characteristics of marxism. They're trying to ruin society you muppet. It's not about money. It's ultimately about population control.
So you're choosing the side of the woman that helped weinstein rape countless victims. I guess we know all we need to know about you.
Toxic fandom? It's the wider general public that's sick of this shit. Don't kid yourself it's just Star War fans.
Shit show, wonder what Leslie had her do to get the role. Harvey Headland
I loved SW when race and gender weren’t an issue.
You're the only one making it an issue here. I've watched everything that has been released and that was never brought to the forefront in the way that you're attempting to say. Unless your issue is a wider range of people being included in storytelling in the first place; you're either horribly misinformed or you're just pissed off over nothing.
@@breakevenmonkeyNo, no. You aren’t scoring points pretending to understand what minorities go through. And it’s way bigger then representation in Star Wars. Thank god for the caring white man. Thinks a couple DEI hires in Star Wars makes up for everything that’s happened. What a selfish take.
Wdym?
@@breakevenmonkey You can't be that big of an ignorant muppet can you? Do you know what equity and identity politics are? The precursor to marxism. That what these companies like Disney are trying to normalize. They're trying to ruin society. It's not about money anymore.
Its very clear Disney buying Star Wars was the worst thing to ever happen.
We need Elon Musk to buy Disney and get rid of the idiots that are ruining everything there.
and Disney got obsessed by evil spirits thinking a drug taking pyromaniac was a great choice for inspirational role models for young children and gosh, look what happened when Amandla used that fight training to make a dis track...... OOPPSIE!
this show is gonna kill star wars (even though its already dead)
Get over it … actually wait and see rather then being a dumbass on a bandwagon
Star Wars is alive. It’s just dead to you. You’re one of those fanboys who didn’t get what they wanted and can’t stand the fact that Star Wars universe is not being by white male. If you don’t like Star Wars and think it’s dead, please don’t watch any more of it. You’ll be happier and we will be happier because we won’t have to hear you moan about it. I’m handing out lessons for free. 🧐
@@pcb462 When you say, "we will be happier", who is the "we"?
Don’t hate for the sake of hate. I can’t wait to see this. I think this will be very fun and entertaining.
ya nice try fake account. "For the sake of hate". You can't be that ignorant. Do you know what equity and identity politics are? Characteristics of marxism. They're trying to ruin society on purpose. It's not about money (or lack thereof) anymore.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cool joke bro
22% and DROPPING
Star Wars has been and will always be just fine. We are breaking barriers, involving people from different backgrounds and doing good storytelling. It’s a great time to be alive for Star Wars fans.
Is that why Disney hasn’t made a profit on the Star Wars IP?
🤡
Dope
You must be smoking it, bot
@@jcbbb 🤣🤖💨😂 whaat
Excellent 🙂 [Forever DPlus Subber who likes OT,PT & 20% of ST. Also likes BOBF S01, Andor S01, Mandalorian 2,5 seasons & 90% of Ahsoka S01] 🙂
what a shill or you got zero taste in films
@@Mace_Window_ Or the best option: You are wrong on both 🙂 Be well & enjoy streaming beautiful The Acolyte via D+ 🤗
Mae is the worst Star Wars character since Jar Jar Binks.
The director has a past with Star Wars also. She played the tauntaun Luke sleeps in.
Let's go hyden kristin.
Amandla is my age. 😍
I am so not excited to see this. This seems more like Disney woke agenda stuff. They are breaking canon from my understanding. Which is basically lazy writing. You are given a sandbox to play in but she decided to do her own thing. Which most fans will resent. I am almost positive this is going to tank. But let's see if it lives up to the negative expectations or it surprises us.
What exactly are they breaking?
What woke agenda?
@@victorxochi they said in the movies a Sith had not been seen in like a thousand years. Yet in the trailer we see a red lightsaber right in front of like 8 Jedi. And they have said they are breaking canon on how the force works.
@@MorganTDaniels first off, “not seen a thousand years” doesn’t mean that the Sith stop existing until the Phantom Menace. Plus, that line was to show how blind the Jedi were during the prequel trilogy. Clearly the Sith was still around. One killed Qui Gon Jin. I’m 95% sure that quote was taken out of context. Like most stuff is.
@@MorganTDaniels and it’s funny every time I ask “what’s woke about it” no one can answer that. It’s like y’all just blindly follow what geeks and games, Mike Zeroh (he has been proven a liar multiple times by the way), and Star wars theory say. I’m not saying Star Wars hasn’t done woke stuff before, they have
Woop very nice first two episodes. Last night i streamed via D+ with "65 Led Telly & noticed how well they capture the beautiful Star Wars atmosphere 🙂 Talented actress & violinist Amandla Stenberg on it & also many other talented actors 🙂 First two episodes have well built world. Audio & visual work relaxes so you can wind-down after day's activities 🧘♂
dei actor that hates white men and a director has a blind eye to Harvey Wine-0 her olde boss. This show is going to smell like poo poo.
When did Kung Fu enter the Star Wars motard verse.
Yeah like Andor!
Dork
it's not Kung Fu wdym?
When did she say she hates white men?
She did Russian doll as well … didn’t hear any of you complain …. Now it’s fitting ha with ur agenda to hate anything that isn’t your idea of a product… the only thing that smells like pooo pooo is ur phrasing and how you you write foolishly.
