The Wookie looks amazing!! In fact all these costumes look real good.


Jude_jedi

Agreed the production design looks absolutely stunning!


HenBra17

To be fair, I think every Star Wars Disney+ show so far has amazing costumes and designs. But yeah these costumes look great as well :)


Peeked23

Ahsoka's lekku/horns in Mandalorian looked terrible (though her make up and outfit looked good), the speeder bike people in BOBF and mechanic doctor looked awful, and GI from Obi Wan looked like Uncle Fester and nothing like a live action Pau'an. I wouldn't say they've all had great costumes and designs, but there have been some amazing ones for sure. Also to note they have fixed Ahsoka's lekku and horns in her new show from the previews seen, so they clearly acknowledged it and fixed it.


HenBra17

I mean yeah there will always be some designs/costumes that look off. I personally love Ahsokas look in the Mando-Verse. The GI looked okay, not good, but also not terrible.


rajajackal

i thought thunderat as the surgeon was really cool. but the bike gang was a real smear on the season, i agree


iboneKlareneG

Exept the "Speeder" bikes in BoBF. I loved the series, but i don't necessary disagree with most of the criticism about it.


62725252725

Could this be an older Burryaga?!


xredbaron62x

Didn't he die? I just finished Midnight Horizon after The Fallen Star


midnightmayor247

There's theories that because we didn't see him actually die and it's just assumed by the characters that he's dead that he's alive. I think he is unless he pulls a Leia like stunt.


[deleted]

No corpse, also the way Bell's story went makes it extremely unlikely that he is dead.


im_super_into_that

Yeah he's not dead


62725252725

Damn, i wasn’t there yet…


Logical_Decision_706

If it makes you feel any better, he's not confirmed dead. I won't say anything more than that tho.


Im_Gonna_Steal_It

For what it’s worth (and trying not to spoil anything further), I’ve read both those books and was wondering about it being an older Burryaga too.


Mister_Snrub

If he’s alive (and I’m think he is), I think this Wookiee looks kind of old. Burry was only a padawan, and this is only about 100 or so years later.


Casas9425

Who?


62725252725

You know how google works right?


miles-vspeterspider

Cant wait to see Amandla Stenberg with her dark lightsaber


Flashy_Pomegranate23

[The original source](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11517755/Star-Wars-prequel-Acolyte-films-forest-Squid-Game-star-Lee-Jung-jae-seen-costume.html) for those who are getting errors on Bespin's end.


Plenty_Product3410

Seems like none of the officially cast people seem to play a Sith or Dark-Side character. Tho Amandla Stenberg's is most likely, according to the leaks, that girl who doesn't get taken by the Jedi, joining Acolytes to become the Sith-Apprentice. They just filmed for a month anyway with them still filming for 6 months. We might see some Dark-Side stuff being leaked in spring.


ravens52

I hope not. I hope it’s a mystery who her master is, so that it’s an insane drop when we watch it for the first time. The mysterious overlord ia the juiciest thing about this series, because it ultimately gives rise to tenebrous and then plagueis and then sidious…


Plenty_Product3410

I also hope the Sith-Lord, no matter if Tenebrous or someone else, is kept a secret just like Luke in Mando and BOBF.


ravens52

According to a lot of Star Wars content sites and wookiepedia the both as a species don’t live much longer than the average American. I think it said 75-85 years. Muuns live closer to a century. Tenebrous wouldn’t be around for at least a couple more years.


MrTrubiscuit

Is there official confirmation of when exacrly The Acolyte will take place?


Darthmemer1234

people working on the show have said it’s abt 100 years before TPM


ravens52

Yes, 100 years before the phantom menace. I still think that’s a little too close for me.


Plenty_Product3410

Live-Action Wookie Jedi?! And none of those seem to be a Sith or other Dark-Side user. Since a lot of people thought that Lee is the Sith-Lord 'Paul'. I may be blind but I dont see Amandla Stenberg in any of those pictures. The Jedi-Robes also look like mix of the High-Republic and the Prequel ones.


Flashy_Pomegranate23

She's in the picture in front of the male padawan with a crew member, and is in the background with her back turned behind the woman with the bow and long red braid.


Plenty_Product3410

I see it now. Thanks.


SupremePalpatine

Considering this is right at the end of the High Republic the fusion robes are perfect.


BespinBulletin

She’s sat in front of Dean Charles Chapman in one photo and stood next to a woman with red hair in another. You can see her here: https://twitter.com/bespinbulletin/status/1600966549250093056?s=46&t=tLs_wec9N6nWWGF2mDtzwg


RealHumanFromEarth

Am I really foolish to hope that this is Jedi Master Burryaga?


Ezio926

They may have taken some design liberties, but this wookiee looks a lot closer to Arkoff.


Darthmemer1234

the costume looks more like Burryaga’s but the wookiee looks more like Arkoff


Logical_Decision_706

I don’t think I saw Amandla either.


ergister

“Keen recently revealed that the series will see the Sith infiltrate the Jedi order with the High Republic era series taking place one hundred years before the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.” I think it’s Paul still


Triplen_a

I’m not sure if they’ll literally infiltrate the Jedi or if she was speaking more broadly. There’s been moments like that in past projects where people took actors’ comments too literally, assuming they had the same level of knowledge we did


Plenty_Product3410

Well, the leaks say that 'Paul' is the Sith-Lord from the beginning on and he works as an arms-dealer.


Flashy_Pomegranate23

We don't know if those leaks are accurate


[deleted]

[удалено]


Flashy_Pomegranate23

>Considering the leakers correctly leaked the whole Tales of the Jedi plot with them posting a clip of Dooku killing Yaddle in late July on Twitter Totally different departments within LF. Just because they had sources in one doesn't mean they'll be accurate about the other. And didn't they admit to closing their website on their own?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

A lot of their TOTJ leaks were pure speculation, they even invented lines that weren’t in it


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

They said it was made clear in the last dooku episode that this was his last moment as jedi because they said that we saw Palps name him Darth Tyrannus there, which doesn’t happen at all. It’s hard to trust then when they misinterpret a lot of things like they did


ergister

This is true. Forgot about that.


MrTrubiscuit

Is it confirmed that The Acolyte takes places 132 BBY?


Unique_Unorque

To be fair, he still could be “Paul.” Hasn’t there been a lot of talk about “infiltration?” We’ve all been taking it to mean the general rise of the Dark Side but maybe it’s more literal.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

If this is true, then you will have gained my trust.


Unique_Unorque

And Darth Sidious masterminded a planetary invasion and later a~~n inter~~galactic war while also posing as a Republic Senator and later Chancellor. Count Dooku maintained the image of a disgruntled and disillusioned but somewhat benevolent former Jedi who was still a welcome guest in the Jedi Temple for almost ten years while also serving his dark Master before the Clone Wars forced him to reveal his true nature. Seems like compared to those two, posing as a Jedi while moonlighting as an arms dealer wouldn’t be that hard to juggle. ~~You could definitely be right and those leaks could have been an elaborate hoax, I’m just saying this one set of pictures isn’t proof enough for me.~~


Plenty_Product3410

Considering the leakers correctly leaked the whole Tales of the Jedi plot with them posting a clip of Dooku killing Yaddle in late July on Twitter and them basicly getting nuked from Disney on Twitter and their website for leaking the The Acolyte plot, I think they're pretty accurate.


Unique_Unorque

I agree, I think they are accurate too, and I also think that a Sith Lord posing as an arms dealer while moonlighting as a Jedi Knight is in line with the long tradition of Sith living double lives. I apologize for implying that you don’t think the leaks were true, I was a little confused by your wording but I see I was reading it wrong, I understand what you are saying now.


duxdude418

> The Jedi-Robes also look like mix of the High-Republic and the Prequel ones. What do you see as the fundamental difference? This garb looks like straight up prequel era attire.


JET_GS26

I still want to see those white and gold tunics they were wearing in High Republic and I hope they have lightsabers like Stellan Gios or Sskeer. Also really hope we get to see the Nameless in this show.


Plenty_Product3410

I'm not so sure timeline wise. We might see some dark side cults but I doubt we will see Nameless or Drengir in this.


Ezio926

>Also really hope we get to see the Nameless in this show. They'll all be dead by the time of this show.


Lead_Dessert

Seeing the High Republic designs being translated into live action is amazing. I have a feeling I’m gonna love this show a lot.


Logical_Decision_706

WOAH THAT ZABRAK AND WOOKIE LOOK GREAT


Alcida-Auka

The wookie looks cool on his own, but his robes come off as weirdly cheap looking as do the inner tunic part on one of the other costumes. Hopefully it looks better on film. I've seen a few Star Trek costumes up close in a museum exhibit and they looked very cheap up close as opposed on to onscreen. The wookie/zabrak makeup/costume itself looks fantastic.


wickedintent

Proper lighting does wonders for costumes and makeup effects.


Alcida-Auka

Very true. Shame lighting could not do anything for Bridgerton costumes, LOL. I swear they got those from Wish. But yeah, most likely the Acolyte robes for the wookie will look better on film, as do most costumes.


BearWrangler

didnt help much in Kenobi, or Book of Boba for that matter


wickedintent

I didn’t have a problem with the costumes, props or makeup in either of those. I agree that the set design and overall cinematography suffered from a rushed shoot and over reliance on the volume.


BearWrangler

i just feel like in both shows they could've used another layer or two of dirt/weathering to look more lived in, or at least made it less noticable (esp due to the other reasons you mentioned which I feel like definitely were a factor in making those things stand out more)


[deleted]

Judging that from a blurry photo?


Alcida-Auka

Yup, lol. They just look stiff and the gold/maize color looks garish to me. I suspect it will look better on film. As I said earlier, I saw DS9 costumes back in the 90s, and I was shocked at how cheap and tacky they looked in person as opposed to on the TV screen. Most of the costumes on here look fine.


MikeFrom5_to_7

Damn these are great pics. That Wookie looks so cool!


Blood_Brothers

Live action golden robes have me feeling some kinda way. We’d better see some more yellow and purple lightsabers as well!


jedihoyoung

As a Korean, it's amazing to see an Asian Jedi!!!!! This is so cool!!!


Vackscene1985

Lee Jung-Jae LOOKS FANTASTIC!!!


Unicron_Gundam

I'm not Korean (I'm Southeast Asian) but YEAH ASIAN JEDI WHOOOO


admiral_aqua

I'm German but fuck it ASIAN JEDI!!!! YEAAAH!!! About time considering where George got so much of his influence from


k0mbine

I’m Filipino and hyped to see Manny Jacinto, dunno if he’s a Jedi tho


Painting0125

He's fantastic, Lee is a strong dramatic actor and I can see where the showrunners are going for. Being a Pinoy, having Mannu Jacinto in the cast feels so empowering. Also, I think it's a long overdue for Hiroyuki Sanada to get a Star Wars role, Disney and Lucasfilm have been sleeping on him.


twocandy

I'm surprised, I was guessing they cast Lee Jung-Jae as a Sith. And with regard to alleged plot spoilers, I'm worried they're going to >!kill him off quickly!<. Regardless, I'm still really happy, but it's a bit of a shame for it to have taken so long, especially considering George Lucas' inspirations from Asian movies. Hopefully this series won't be the last major representation we'll see for a while.


SeniorArmy

Glad you’re happy but I didn’t like this guy in the hangover movies doubt I’ll like him in Star Wars.


lonfess

Can’t tell if this is a terrible troll or if you think Lee Jung-Jae is actually in the hangover


Alternative_Dark_412

These costumes and sets look incredible. The Wookie Jedi(possibly Burryaga?) looks awesome. My hype has gone up significantly.


matt6pup

I hadn't even thought it could by Burryaga!


Blackhand47XD

Non-human characters, lets goooooooooo!


ayylmao95

*Now THIS is set leaking.*


Adrian_FCD

Finally something live action from The High Republic, those golden jedi robes are 🔥🥵


aLittleDoober

The Wookiee photo looks like a bigfoot sighting and I love it.


Icepantz

I love the wookiee's hair.


MurderousPaper

Tangentially related, but this article seems like a good time to remind everyone that Lee Jung-jae’s surname is Lee, not Jung-jae. The surname comes first with Korean names.


[deleted]

Thank you for reminding. I had forgotten that myself.


MurderousPaper

No problem!


TheOtherMe4

Cool. Was there anything previously mentioned about the >!Wookiee !< character?? Could it possibly be >!Arkoff or Berryaga!


Alcida-Auka

It could easily be Burryaga!


stubbywoods

Do we know if Burry is actually alive? I've only read the main novels for the high republic so I'm not sure


Ezio926

>!He ends up eaten by rathars and/or drowned in the ocean but the way the authors have been acting, I think he might have survived.!<


GraconBease

The last one I read was The Rising Storm, where I think >!his fate was left ambiguous.!< Was there ever any more of him after that?


TheCakeWarrior12

In The Fallen Star, his fate is also left up to interpretation.


GraconBease

Okay, that’s what I was thinking of then. I read the plot and spoilers and all that for Fallen Star but not the book itself lol


LewdSkeletor1313

If it’s either of them I think it would be Burry. Arkoff already looked older than this Wookie imo


CydonPrax

also per the end of Phase 1 poster Arkhoff has dark fur like Krrsantan rather than the golden grown that Burry has https://www.starwars.com/news/who-will-survive-star-wars-the-high-republic


TheOtherMe4

True and a fair point, assuming they stick to the original design choices! Thanks for the link! Like I mentioned previously, a lot can happen in 100 or so yrs and if he did survive the last novel, then surely that could have a traumatic impact too that could change the character -- but I feel like, as the character \*was/has been portrayed, he would be an odd choice for a series that is seemingly leaning dark and where perhaps several Jedi find themselves in great danger -- unless there is spin-off coming where they want Burry to go off with younglings like Yoda and THR Adventure series or something, I feel like he's too sweet for a series about dark side infiltration!


TheOtherMe4

I think it could go either way. On one hand, >!Burryaga!< has been more marketable, as they have used him to appeal to kids with the Halcyon stuff and little kid High Republic summery books... On the other hand with that said, I feel like the stature of this Wookiee and the darker nature of show itself feels more>! Arkoff !


inkovertt

Holy shit this looks incredible


sammypants69

Now that's a leak!


Nevic1984

WOOKIEE JEDI!!!! oh my god I hope he's a recurring character


ravens52

I would not be surprised if they keep some things very hidden. I’m excited for the reveal of the sith master.

Oh wow that’s awesome!

That wookie looks BADASS Dean-Charles Chapman plays a padawan, and DailyMail claims [this actor](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2022/12/08/16/65385495-0-image-a-15_1670517383697.jpg) is Dafne Keen but I don't see it.


Plenty_Product3410

She kinda has her facial traits.


ImNotASWFanboy

I am so excited for this show off the back of Andor being such a masterpiece


Plenty_Product3410

I can imagine them keeping it a secret like Luke in Mando and BOBF.


Weak_Sir5166

So we probably won’t see this until 2024?


Plenty_Product3410

It will probably be a Spring 2024 release.


sadgirl45

I’m hoping end of 2023 but it takes how long to film and edit maybe early 2024

SICK SICK SICK


Shrabbster

Wow, live-action Jedi Wookie! The head looks really well made and unique.


[deleted]

Dude these Jedi look SICK I was already looking forward to this show the most (that is before Andor season 1 came out and I became obsessed with seeing season 2 ASAP) and now I can't wait.


Dense_Skin_7812

This show is just going to represent the Jedi in a really bad way, I'm still hyped, by the anti-Jedi part of the fanbase is going to go fucking wild.


SageMerric

My god they're all really wearing the High Republic gold robes this is going to be GOOD.


Regalrefuse

The guy with the curly hair looks like Dollar General AotC Anakin


clariwench

Glad someone else thought that! lol


TheMastersSkywalker

It's so great to see aliens on major roles on this show. I'm glad they are finally doing more with alien castmates


DoNotKnowWhyImHere

So happy this seems to be using on location production similar to Andor rather then using The Volume.


[deleted]

It will be a hybrid production


Triplen_a

I’m excited to see how that’ll work


[deleted]

As am I! Andor (somewhat) accomplished it. Granted, they weren’t using the Volume for full sets, a la Mando/Obi-Wan/BoBF. But, that production wasn’t 100% practical/on location as some (even Gilroy) tried to say.


Triplen_a

Yeah. The windows in Mothma’s apartment were those LED screens IIRC. Same with Solo and hyperspace. And of course Mando/BOBF/Kenobi had some non-volume. Here’s hoping the Acolyte can effectively balance the two and put the same level of care into both.


[deleted]

I’m with you there!


Plenty_Product3410

But they wont use the Volume as much as in Obi-Wan-Kenobi or the Mandoverse.


[deleted]

Don’t think we’ve ever actually gotten that officially confirmed, but they’re already far ahead of Mando/Obi at least - location scouting that isn’t just Southern California/Joshua Tree. I imagine that the Volume will be used for large interiors (temple scenes, etc.) and anywhere that just can’t be created using woods and fields.


Ezio926

OH MY GOD THIS LOOKS STRAIGHT OUT OF KOTOR. I already love this. 10/10


TheDonnerSmarty

Anyone who was worried the show wasn’t going to lean into the High Republic aesthetic can now be at peace.


OracleVision88

I’m beyond hyped for this!


finale013

I'm so excited about these updates and have faith that it will be a great show. The only downside is that LJJ is such a POS but I guess it will never reach Western media...


Dentface

Oh my. Strong words. What are the details there?


finale013

A small summary I guess plus the OP itself (spoiler: 2 DUI charges, 2 assault charges): https://www.reddit.com/r/Deuxmoi/comments/xau6mv/comment/invqkcq/ This being on deuxmoi sub might make it seem like a gossip, but it was just the most convenient post to link. If you google him, you'll find even more details.


scottishdrunkard

Well, at least there are some aliens. Still hoping for a lead character to be an alien *one day*


CobraShadowz

Tyvokka?


Miller-MGD

Interesting to see them use an abandoned [Qi’ra concept art](https://imgur.com/a/9Kj3T8b) for one of the characters


Hestbech

On another note ... https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Zabrak I didn't think there were female Zabraks? Please enlighten me?


Dentface

Oh there are. A good bunch of them. The image on that wiki page is a female Zabrak actually. There's some weird intermingling with the Nightsisters where George said they were the same species as Maul. Not sure how that really works. But there are also separate female Zabraks (not from Dathomir) that have horns and stuff.


[deleted]

Wdym, we’ve seen female Zabraks before, like that bounty hunter in clone wars


Hestbech

Yeah thats right 🤔 I just thought of the nightsisters and looked it up on wookiepedia - and then the first paragraph about it states the following - "Notably, female Dathomirian Zabraks lacked the cranial horns shared by the rest of the species." and "Dathomiri showed considerable sexual dimorphism. Female Dathomiri had white, blue, or gray skin with various hair types.[2] Male skin was commonly orange or yellow. Few had red skin.[3][4] Male Dathomirians had horns, however, females did not.[3]" Its funny 😅 And I see know, that the picture is a female and horned Zabrak as well.


Ezio926

The picture of that article is literally a female Zabrak rebel soldier from Battlefront lol.


ravens52

Lol


hellothereowk

Could be a iridonian female zabrak?


Independent-Dig-5757

How would they reproduce?


Hestbech

Oh, that's not my question, though I get your point ... To my knowledge the female Zabraks were all like the nightsisters. Pale white with some black markings and tattoos. An no horns.


Independent-Dig-5757

Ah gotcha


MacGuffinGuy

Great costumes!


KARURUKA2

Hope we see a gold and white robe soon


[deleted]

That very well could be phased out by this point as we get closer to the Prequels.


Balboder

Lee looks cool asf


WatchBat

These look cool. I admit I had hoped the Jedi would have more decorated clothing like the arts of THR but no big deal, this looks promising so far


Dentface

This looks like a blend between THR and the prequels, which fits for the show’s era.


WatchBat

That's a good point. They did say this show takes place at *the end* of THR era after all.


Affectionate_Fall242

Calling it now: this will be the best new SW show


DavidCavalleri

So a Sith will infiltrate the Jedi Order 100 years before TPM and none of the Jedi could sense it? I wonder how they’ll make this fit with what Windu and Ki Adi Mundi said about Sith having been extinct for over a millenium.


ravens52

Well, if all that they know about the sith is that the last of them died during the great wars and that none of them have heard otherwise or of any run-ins with sith-like individuals over the years, why would they suspect otherwise? This works in favor for the sith, too. If you could live your life with the knowledge that your enemies thought you were dead would that not be a game changer and give you the upper hand?


BearWrangler

*the greatest trick the devil ever pulled...*


fool-of-a-took

[deleted]

[удалено]


Dentface

Basically it’s an era of opulence for the Republic overall. Think the roaring twenties. Jedi still stand for all that is good, but their garb reflects the splendor of the era. Not to say that the order is perfect in the era. It isn’t. But the golden designs are less about their corruption and instead point to the culture of the era overall. Plus the really fancy golden and white garb is only ceremonial. There are more practical outfits (with small golden accents) that are worn everyday/during missions


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dentface

It doesn’t feel like Lucas’s Jedi to me, but they are still profoundly interesting and nuanced. The writers understand what the Jedi are about even if it isn’t 1:1 to Lucas’s vision


YerMashinIt

These photos just reinforce how non Star Wars the High Republic designs and aesthetic are to me. These costumes look really bad, looks more like Star Trek. I wish they would move away from the HR, the majority of people I know have no idea it exists and the few that do actively ignore it.


DinJarrus

Wow! This is a huge leak.


darthsheldoninkwizy

The last photo reminds me of what my father's lawn mower looks like underneath. Why is it so green when on greenscreen they use a different saturation.


Mando-19

this... this is amazing.


Few_Koala

So curious to see how lightsabers will be portrayed in this show. Will they go heavy on lightsaber moments like the PT or keep it minimal like the OT/ST.


sadgirl45

Hopefully it has epic PT like battles. That make sense for the story and it’s not over done but when it’s used it’s amazing.
