Lucasfilm have debuted the first poster for the highly anticipated live-action Star Wars series, The Acolyte, which revealed the release date of the series to be June 4th, 2024. In addition to the poster reveal, Lucasfilm have announced confirmed that the long awaited first trailer for the Leslye Headland created series will debut TOMORROW at 8AM PT/3PM GMT.

You can read the newly update synopsis and take a peek at The Acolyte poster below.

In The Acolyte, an investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Amandla Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems…

The Acolyte, which is set during the High Republic era, will follow a former padawan and her Jedi master as they investigate a series of crimes, but encounter forces more sinister than what they’ve imagined. The series stars Amandla Stenberg (Bodies, Bodies, Bodies) as the lead, as well as Lee Jung Jae (Squid Game), Dafne Keen (His Dark Materials), Manny Jacinto (The Good Place), Jodie Turner-Smith (After Yang), Charlie Bennett (Russian Doll), Rebecca Henderson (Inventing Anna), Dean Charles Chapman (1917), Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix) and Margarita Levieva (Daredevil: Born Again).
