I am really excited to see The Acolyte.

It’s coming from Leslye Headland – the creator of the great Netflix show, Russian Doll – and I think this will be the best Star Wars show we’ve seen yet.

The series is going to be Star Wars’ first live-action venture into the High Republic, the period of time before the prequel trilogy when Sith were thought to be few and far between.

The Knights Of The Old Republic video games are no longer considered as Star Wars canon.

However, it does seem as though they will be mining the games and comic books for content for their upcoming shows.

The video games were set 3,900 years before Star Wars: A New Hope.

The Acolyte, on the other hand, takes place roughly 300 years prior to the Battle of Yavin.
