The Unfulfilled Ambitions of The Acolyte

Despite its financial failure, details have emerged regarding creator Leslie Hedlund’s grand vision for The Acolyte. According to actor Manny Jinto, who portrayed Kair, Hedlund had initially mapped out an ambitious three-season arc along with a movie. During a recent Fan Expo panel, Jinto shared his insights, expressing both amazement and disappointment with the plans that may never come to fruition. "Leslie's dream was for us to do three seasons, not just this one," he noted, suggesting there were many more narratives and character developments left unexplored.
