The Acolyte has wrapped up on Disney Plus. We finally know what really happened on Brendok and discovered whether Osha and Mae would walk a dark path or turn to the light – and, judging by the open-ended nature of the finale, we could even see these characters again someday.

That means you can get settled in for a binge-watch or catch up on any episodes you might have missed. As Anakin Skywalker once said, this is where the fun begins...

Senior Entertainment Writer

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
