  • You are incorrect on one thing. This is set 100 years before the Phantom Menace which means Palpatine isn't even alive at this time...only his master Darth Plagueis would be alive still as a Sith Apprentice under Darth Tenebrous.

    "Trinity, you take the blue milk...the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red milk...you stay in a galaxy far far away, and I show you how deep the trash compactor goes”. -Jedi Master Morpheus

    0:21 they were at the height of their power in the sense of being a golden age of their peacekeeping, not arrogance.
  • @jeffrey53sola
    If this series is 100+ years before the battle of yavin, and Palpatine was in his late 80s during that battle, then there is no way Sheev could be in this series
  • @brianj3150
    When they say there is no good or evil, that soley benefits evil.
  • The high republic era has so much potential to be some of the most interesting Star Wars content. Praying it doesn’t flop🙏

    " Palpatine hires rogue Jedi to do the bidding for the Trade Federation...Rogue Jedi kill each other off in lightsaber duels until only Darth Maul is left. " The Acolyte
  • @derpydog0078
    I think out of all the cameos from characters that could happen in the Acolyte, Huyank seems like the least invasive since he is directly tied to the training of young king in their lightsaber construction.
  • Love the constant thread of post Original Trilogy shows and movies that flesh out and give providence to all the random one-off wallpaper characters from ANH and ROTJ. Theelins started out as a single background singer in Max Rebo's band, and someone decided "Yup, they're going to get a backstory and we're going to see more of them and their people."
  • @Darklots
    Definitely won’t be Palpatine. He wasn’t born yet. Plagueis, however, is a possibility and I would absolutely love if they brought him in
  • @Klaital1
    If it's taking place 100 years before Phantom Menace, I don't think Palpatine is even born yet, he was a human after all, he couldn't have been around THAT long.
  • @marves7960
    So a series that may have or references to Tarfful, Plagueis, and an 800 year old Yoda? Sign me up!
  • @TheOlvan
    So Yoda is alive...Might we see him again?
  • @tobyriecke3972
    I’m so excited to finally see the jedi together fighting which we haven’t really seen since the first battle of geonosis and the SWTOR trailers. Some of my favorite stuff.
  • @RobertJToledo
    I really hope they do a Darth Plagueis reference or at least a Hego Damask reference.
