As such, its one of our most anticipatedupcoming Star Wars shows and moviespotentially in the works.

We didnt get that series onDisneyPlus until a year later in June 2024.

The Acolyte

That isnt showing signs of happening just yet.

As such, The Acolyte season 2 will likely land in 2026 if it gets renewed.

The Acolyte season 2 cast: who could return?

Qimir (Manny Jacinto) in The Acolyte

The Acolyte said some goodbye to some major names while also introducing some fresh faces in its season finale.

That gives us a good indication of what shape The Acolyte season 2 cast should take.

David Harewoods firebrand Senator Rayencourt is being positioned to have a more major role going forward.

Vernestra Rwoh (Rebecca Henderson) in The Acolyte

As, too, is Master Yoda and Darth Plagueis.

Frank Oz would likely voice the former, but no one has yet been cast as Plagueis.

The Acolyte season 2 story: where is the show heading next?

First up, the fates of twins Mae and Osha respectively.

Osha is now under the tutelage of The Stranger, AKA Qimir.

She has since had her memory wiped of Osha until that moment and is on Coruscant with the Jedi.

Qimir (Manny Jacinto) unmasked in The Acolyte

Maybe thats why shes gone to Master Yoda for help (and to keep things under wraps)?

Then theres another newcomer in the shape of David Harewoods Senator Rayencourt.

What happens next remains to be seen, though we have our suspicions about the character.

Mae Aniseya (Amandla Stenberg) in The Acolyte

David Harewood is a prolific actor; would heonlybe a senator?

We wouldnt expect a trailer for The Acolyte season 2 for quite some time.

If not, there likely wont be any promotional material until a few months prior to release.

Disney+

What else has been said about The Acolyte season 2?

“And I dont know when that will happen.

I dont know when that decision [to renew] will be made.”

Additionally, Headland toldColliderthat The Acolyte was pitched as a “multi-season show.”

And I would say I think its pretty complicated and messy."
