Star Wars is teasing lightsaber duels as good as the ones from The Phantom Menace for its upcoming High Republic show about the dark side.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Acolyte, an upcoming Star Wars TV show about the dark side of the Force, is teasing lightsaber battles as good as Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace's Duel of the Fates. While The Acolyte’s release date is still far away, recent updates on the upcoming High Republic series suggest that it could be one of the most interesting Star Wars projects in years.
Jacinto: "If you loved that sequence with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan and Darth Maul, I think you're going to enjoy this show." Keen: I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but I will just say it. There's a lack of guns, which personally as someone who loves fighting and stunts and stuff, I love. The Acolyte Move Star Wars Away From Guns - And Back To Lightsabers Keen’s comment on how “there’s a lack of guns” in The Acolyte suggests that Jedi and lightsabers will set the tone for the High Republic series, which is fantastic news for Star Wars. For years, Star Wars has focused on the events of the original trilogy’s period, during which there were only a handful of Jedi and other Force-sensitive warriors around.
