Manny Jacinto Desires Season 2 of The Acolyte Despite Cancellation

Manny Jacinto, an actor from Star Wars: The Acolyte, expressed his desire to see a second season of the series, despite its recent cancellation by Disney. At a panel during Dragon Con, he stated making season 2 of The Acolyte is a personal life goal. The show, which aimed to explore nuanced interpretations of the Force and the Jedi, left several story threads unresolved, leading to disappointment among fans. Amandla Stenberg, the lead actor, acknowledged the backlash the show faced during its announcement, indicating that the cancellation was not entirely surprising. While The Acolyte's future seems bleak, other Star Wars projects like Skeleton Crew and Andor are still in development.

No, The Acolyte has been officially cancelled, so there will not be a second season to continue its story or resolve its plotlines.

Star Wars: The Acolyte was intended to delve into the darker aspects of the Jedi and explore the evolving mythology of the Force. Set in the final days of the High Republic era, it promised to showcase a different perspective of the galaxy far, far away, but its potential remains unfulfilled due to its abrupt cancellation. Fans had hoped for a continuation that could further explore its intriguing themes of morality and power within the Star Wars universe.
