‘Star Wars’ spin-off show ‘The Acolyte’ cancelled after one season

“The Acolyte” came from Lesley Headland of “Russian Doll” fame. It featured an ensemble cast of Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-jae, Manny Jacinto, Jodie Turner-Smith, Dafne Keen, Rebecca Henderson, Charlie Barnett, Dean-Charles Chapman and Carrie-Anne Moss. The series, created by Lesley Headland and featuring an ensemble cast, faced poor fan and critic reception, leading to its unexpected cancellation despite a cliffhanger ending.
