The series was forging new paths and telling different stories in a franchise that often leans too much on nostalgia

The Acolyte wasn’t perfect, but it did break new narrative ground in Star Wars , a franchise often haunted by Force ghosts and endlessly recurring characters. Led by Leslye Headland , the Disney+ series dared to reevaluate decades-old tropes, unpack the flaws of the Jedi Order, and play with the space sandbox setting in new, interesting ways.

With production costs so high, companies want a return on their investment, and they won’t take “it’s just the first season, let it cook” for an answer. According to Forbes, estimates place The Acolyte’s cost of production at nearly $180M for just eight episodes, and its viewership was about half that of Ahsoka and 75% less than The Mandalorian’s.
