Canceled Star Wars show The Acolyte cost almost a quarter of a billion dollars, according to a new report.
Per Forbes, the overall cost of the show, which was filmed in the UK, was £190.8 million, which translates to $230.8 million at the time of the earning reports' filings, or $256.7 million by today's rates. While some filings are still to come, Forbes says this is pretty much the complete spend on the show, with only "minimal costs" left to be reported.
While the Star Wars show was the second-most watched Disney Plus release of 2024, it was ultimately canceled due to low viewership – despite ending on a massive cliffhanger.
But, even though it was canceled, Manny Jacinto, who played enigmatic Sith Lord the Stranger in the series, is keen to return. "Always, always hopeful," Jacinto has said previously of seeing the Stranger again. "I would love to run it back… A lot of fans out there being like, 'We love The Acolyte!' Like, 'Qimir come back!' Things like that, it's all love and it's so special. We'll put it out there. Fingers crossed."
