Star Wars fans can kiss Amandla Stenberg’s Instagram account goodbye.
Amandla Stenberg unexpectedly removed her Instagram account, leaving fans puzzled and sparking further discussion about the controversy surrounding the Disney+ series, The Acolyte.
The account disappeared without any warning or explanation, and there’s no information available about when it was deleted. It’s as if it never existed, and hardly anyone online is talking about it.
Adding to the confusion, Google’s AI search is now sending people to a fan website that clarifies “This is NOT Amandla,” making the situation even more complicated.
This news arrives shortly after The Acolyte creator, Leslie Hedland, addressed the show’s cancellation, echoing Stenberg’s sentiment and pointing to fan reaction as a contributing factor.
No Trace of Her Verified Account
Throughout the release of The Acolyte and the resulting criticism, Stenberg consistently used her official Instagram account. She shared a lot of content during this time, including a debated music video featuring energetic dancing, and she responded to both critics and fans in multiple posts.
This background makes the abrupt disappearance all the more striking. Without any explanation from Stenberg or her representatives, we can only speculate about the reasons – whether she left quietly, responded to ongoing criticism, or if it was connected to the remarks made by Headland.
Friends with Dafne Keen
Adding to the buzz, Mazzo Stenberg’s The Acolyte co-star and friend, Dafne Keen, recently shared Instagram photos of them together in New York.
Despite both actresses being connected to the same project, Jenna Keen still has an active social media account, but Imani Stenberg’s account has disappeared. Keen’s posts no longer mention or tag Stenberg, highlighting the difference in their current online presence.
A History of Blaming Fans Over The Acolyte
Leslye Headland, the creator of The Acolyte, has consistently defended her show against criticism, suggesting that negative reactions played a role in its cancellation. In August 2024, she attributed the show’s fate to what she called hostility and bias within the Star Wars fanbase.
She blamed the show’s problems on how fans reacted, not on the choices made by the creators. The negative feelings about those comments reappeared when the show was canceled and again when Headland spoke recently.
Considering everything that’s been happening, her decision to delete her Instagram account – where she was most vocal during the recent issues – feels very deliberate, even though we don’t know her exact reasons. She might simply want to move past the controversy surrounding The Acolyte, just like many Star Wars fans are hoping to do.
Stenberg’s Future Projects Remain Active
Despite the disappearance from Instagram, Stenberg has several projects underway.
The actress will play a princess in the movie version of Children of Blood and Bone, which is set to be one of her most significant roles yet.
IMDb reports that she’s currently working on the animated movie Wildwood, directed by Travis Knight, both as an actress and by providing voice work.
In addition, she is set to appear in Golf Gods as a character named Michael.
