Quiz: Which High Republic Job Is Right for You?

You know what they say: find a Star Wars job you’d enjoy doing, and you’ll never have to work a day in your life. (Or something like that.)

Even in the galaxy far, far away, there’s always work to be done – and you could be the right person for the job! In The Acolyte, set during the era of the High Republic, we get a glimpse of some of the careers you could try out. Would you be like Jedi Master Sol, adorned in gold and white robes with your lightsaber on your hip?

Inside The Acolyte Creature Shop: Meet Bazil, the Tynnan Tracker – First Details

Since the moment The Acolyte took us inside the Ueda noodle shop in the very first scene, the work of the series’ creature shop has been on full display. Panning over the chattering diners, you may glimpse a diminutive alien slurping at a bowl of noodles and other species that would feel just as at-home in the Mos Eisley cantina. Soon, the otherworldly denizens of the galaxy will take a more prominent role when the story returns to Khofar. Here, the Jedi must employ the Tynnan tracker Bazil in their search for the Wookiee Kelnacca (Joonas Suotamo) deep in the jungle.

In The Acolyte, Jodie Turner-Smith’s Mother Aniseya is Mothering

Not all witches are sisters of Dathomir.

When The Acolyte creator Leslye Headland first started writing her Star Wars series — the first three episodes are now streaming on Disney+, — she was inspired by Mother Talzin and her coven from Star Wars: The Clone Wars. But it was Dave Filoni, who worked alongside Star Wars creator George Lucas on the animated show, who helped guide Headland in the creation of her own in-world coven led by Mother Aniseya (Jodie Turner-Smith).

Dave Filoni very quickly became kind of a mentor of mine in terms of navigating what this part of the timeline would be like for both the Jedi and then other Force users,” Headland says. “It was kind of this ‘A-ha!’ moment for me when he told me, ‘You know, not
