BREAKING: The Acolyte Is Officially Cancelled!

Deadline simply launched an unique article in regards to the cancellation of The Acolyte. With Deadline being a good Hollywood commerce journal with precise trade sources there’s zero doubt in regards to the veracity of their report. The least watched stay motion Star Wars Sequence on Disney+ ever that price 180 million to make and which additionally had the bottom watched Marvel or Star Wars collection/season finale on Disney+ ever (much less viewers than Ms Marvel even) won’t get a second season. As reported in my Nielsen article from a number of days in the past The Acolyte collection finale had not even one quarter of the viewers of The Mandalorian season 2 finale and carried out worse than the Ms Marvel collection finale even, which is a brand new absolute low level. An awesome variety of followers ignored the collection and refused to look at it. Information of the cancellation breaks mere days after Nielsen reported their collection finale numbers for The Acolyte, in fact internally Disney knew in regards to the viewership weeks in the past.

And with that Leslye Headland and The Acolyte will each develop into obscure footnotes in Star Wars historical past. The girl who tried to destroy the Jedi and needed folks to root for psychopathic murderers she recognized with and thought of her “avatar” won’t ever work for Lucasfilm once more. And fairly frankly – the very best Disney might do is to provide The Acolyte the Willow remedy and to erase the present from existence or at the least to formally label it non canon.

And with that I believe we are going to lastly by no means have to speak about The Acolyte once more. Let’s neglect about all of it. And to the twelve individuals who needed a season 2: welcome to the actual world!

One last query stays: why does the girl who greenlit each Willow and The Acolyte on Disney+ (two of the worst flops on Disney+) and is reponsible for the large field workplace catastrophe that’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of Future nonetheless have a job?
