In the season finale episode of The Acolyte, Osha and Mae reunite where it all began amid one final showdown between Master Sol and the Stranger.
Everything we’ve witnessed so far has been leading to this moment.
All paths converge on the world of Brendok once more, but this week we find the burned-out husk of the witches’ fortress overgrown and all-but forgotten in the 16 years since that fateful night. Haunted by the tragedies that transpired here, Mae (Amandla Stenberg) and Sol (Lee Jung-jae) arrive in the hopes of some kind of redemption, while Osha (Amandla Stenberg) and the Stranger (Manny Jacinto) race to meet them to alter a future always in motion….

In the latest episode of The Acolyte, we return to Brendok to see the events from episode 3 from a new perspective — through the eyes of the Jedi.
It would seem that what we saw in the third episode of The Acolyte was true…from a certain point of view.
This week, the penultimate episode of The Acolyte pays homage to the Akira Kurosawa classic Rashomon, returning to Brendok and the past to reexamine the events of the twin’s separation from the perspective of the four central Jedi: Jedi Knight Sol (Lee Jung-jae), Master Indara (Carrie-Anne Moss), her Padawan Torbin (Dean-Charles Chapman), and Master Kelnacca (Joonas Suotamo). As we rejoin Mother Aniseya’s (Jodie Turner-Smith) coven, we gain new insights into how the Jedi perceive the witches and their ritual as well as their treatment of young Osha (Lauren Brady) and Mae (Leah Brady). An examination of the nature of truth and an interrogation of justice, the more we learn, the more questions remain….
How did the Stranger get his scar? Will Vernestra throw Sol under the bus? These questions and more answered in this week’s Q&A!

In the aftermath of last week’s battle, Mae and Osha each get a fresh perspective.
Two sisters, so alike yet so different.
In the latest episode of The Acolyte, we must confront the aftermath of the conflict on Khofar, and its implications of a looming darkness. And we’re not alone. Masquerading as her sister thanks to a quick lightsaber-assisted haircut, Mae (Amandla Stenberg) is once again aboard the Polan, this time traveling in the company of Master Sol (Lee Jung-jae). That leaves Osha (Amandla Stenberg) stranded on an unknown world in the company of a murderer who is tending to her wounds rather than snuffing her out…

Darkness has fallen, and this week a dangerous creature is stalking the Jedi through the jungle.
After what felt like an eternity, we return to the Khofar jungle in the aftermath of last week’s final frightening scene.
The Stranger is a creature unlike any we’ve encountered in the series so far. The twisted metal smile playing across the helmet that conceals the identity of Mae’s Master is like something out of a horror movie. Silent and deadly, this red bladed warrior prowls through the forest indiscriminately slaughtering anyone who gets in their way. The Jedi, guardians of peace and justice, have no choice but to overpower this villain. And caught on the edges of this climactic battle between the light and the dark, Mae (Amandla Stenberg) and Osha (Amandla Stenberg) are on the cusp of reuniting at last…if they can survive the night….

In the latest episode of The Acolyte, the Jedi arrive on Khofar in the search for Kelnacca.
It’s a race through the jungles of Khofar to find the Wookiee first!
This week, The Acolyte returns to the present-day mystery, with Master Sol (Lee Jung-jae) and his mission crew versus Mae (Amandla Stenberg) and Qimir (Manny Jacinto), both desperate to reach Kelnacca (Joonas Suotamo) in his solitary hideout. As they venture deep into the forest, Mae and Osha (Amandla Stenberg) begin to doubt their own goals and abilities on their conflicting quests. Osha stands to learn a valuable lesson about how her past defines her present, although she is plagued by her own hesitations in bringing Mae in sooner. Meanwhile, Mae is having doubts about her own place in the galaxy…

In the latest episode of The Acolyte, we turn back the clock to meet Mother Aniseya and a coven of powerful witches raising two willful twins.
It’s like…something out of a dream. (I hope you read that in Luke Skywalker’s voice.)
This week, the story of The Acolyte steps away from the moody thriller that unfolded last week for a flashback sequence that gives us more insight into the complexities of Mae and Osha’s sibling bond and tragic past. Some 16 years prior to Mae’s killing spree, we find the young sisters testing their mothers’ boundaries, resisting the responsibility of leading their clan of witches, and contesting with a quartet of familiar Jedi…
With the two-episode premiere of The Acolyte, meet the assassin personally taking out members of the Jedi Order.
To quote Nute Gunray: “Now there are two of them!”
In the two-episode premiere of The Acolyte, we meet two sisters with two very different lives. Mae (Amandla Stenberg) is a hot-tempered warrior and stone-cold killer, a trained assassin hunting some of the galaxy’s most dangerous prey: Jedi Masters. Meanwhile, her twin, Osha (also played by Amandla Stenberg), is traveling across the stars working odd jobs as a meknek, a mechanic taking on dangerous and complex repairs with the help of her droid, Pip.
Separated by tragedy 16 years in the past, Mae and Osha have followed their own paths believing the other to be dead. Until now…
