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.

The Acolyte is the most recent Star Wars film to debut on Disney’s streaming service and has faced a huge backlash from a vocal segment of fandom.
