Ending on several cliffhangers, Disney has cancelled Lucasfilm's Star Wars universe set live-action drama series The Acolyte on Disney+ after a single season.
Several storylines and plot points, as well as new plot points teased at the end of the final 8th episode, are now all left unresolved.
The Acolyte's first and now only season made its debut on Disney+ a few months ago, starring Amandla Stenberg playing twin characters Osha and Mae, with Leslye Headland as creator, director, executive producer and showrunner.
The Acolyte was set during the latter part of Star Wars' High Republic Era as a serial killer murder mystery thriller series exposing the shortcomings of the cultish Jedi order, and the renewed rise of the evil Sith 100 years before the events of the Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace film.
Disney+'s next Star Wars and live-action Star Wars series is Skeleton Crew which will debut on 3 December on the streaming service, following a group of children who go on a Goonies-type adventure through the Star Wars galaxy.
