As a longtime Star Wars enthusiast who’s seen my fair share of galaxy-far-far-away adventures, I must say I wholeheartedly empathize with Amandla Stenberg‘s sentiments. The passion and dedication she’s shown towards The Acolyte are truly inspiring, and it’s disheartening to see such a talented individual face unnecessary hatred before even setting foot on a set.
It’s been around three weeks since Lucasfilm decided to discontinue “The Acolyte.” However, devoted Star Wars enthusiasts who eagerly anticipated the escapades of Osha and Qimir, or the Stranger, haven’t given up hope. Now, leading actress Amandla Stenberg has voiced her personal feelings about the show’s termination on Instagram. In a heartfelt story, she shared her thoughts on the series finale and the negativity she and the cast experienced before even filming began. Here’s a summary of her sentiments; you can also view a re-post of her entire Instagram reel below:
I’ll be upfront about this: It’s not entirely unexpected given the backlash we’ve encountered since the idea for the show was first proposed, even before it was produced. Naturally, I understand that I exist within my own reality bubble, but for those less familiar, there has been a wave of criticism and hostility towards us from the moment the project was unveiled
Stenberg expressed her profound gratitude and dream fulfilled by being a part of the universe, specifically working for Disney on Star Wars. However, she also emphasized that staying silent wouldn’t align with her values. Thus, she felt compelled to speak up about the mistreatment faced by the cast and crew. It’s evident that she takes great pride in her role and would eagerly continue if given the opportunity. In light of this, it is hoped that Lucasfilm will follow in Ewan McGregor’s footsteps and publicly support their employees when such incidents occur, as they happen far too frequently. Just as McGregor did for Moses Ingram during the release of Obi-Wan Kenobi in 2022, they should take this action to set a positive example
