If you tuned in to the latest episode of The Acolyte last night, you’ll know that things got surprisingly steamy as Osha (Amandla Stenberg) confronted a scarred and shirtless Qimir (Manny Jacinto) at the hot springs of some unknown planet. However, this was hardly the heated, blood-rushing scene the showrunners hoped for.

Graphic Violence and Sexy Sith: ‘Acolyte’ Kills Filoni’s Future

Manny Jacinto, the breakout star of the new Lucasfilm Star Wars series The Acolyte, has been lying to fans (and everyone) for years now, and he’s glad to be able to stop. The Acolyte is the latest live-action Star Wars series to land on Disney+ and, arguably, its most controversial to date. While The Mandalorian kicked things off with a bang when the streaming service launched in 2019, it has been running out of steam as star Pedro Pascal increasingly commits to other projects like the HBO series The Last of Us and the upcoming Marvel reboot The Fantastic Four. A feature film starring Din Djarin (Pascal) and his adoptive son Grogu is in the works, but it will still be years before it hits theaters.

Lucasfilm Star Admits He’s Been Lying to ‘Star Wars’ Fans for Years, Relieved To Stop

Incoming scoops are reporting that Disney wants to restructure the struggling Star Wars franchise around its original hero, Luke Skywalker. It is fair to say that things are pretty tumultuous at Lucasfilm these days. Along with every other branch of the vast Walt Disney Company (except Pixar, of course), the studio has been struggling to adapt to the modern media environment. The Disney-produced sequel trilogy of films made a huge amount of money and introduced new characters like Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), but was hampered by increasingly bloated budgets and fan backlash as the series went on.

With The Acolyte having us speculate on the identity of Mae’s mysterious dark side master, we decided to look at all the Sith Lords that exist in current Star Wars canon. This list would have been a lot shorter five years ago, but The Rise of Skywalker went and canonized almost every single Sith Lord from Legends continuity, but with little of their Legends backstory.
