The Acolyte: Meet the New Star Wars Characters

New trading card-inspired art shows the new Jedi, and non-Jedi, from the upcoming Disney+ show.

A whole new era of Star Wars is about to begin. The Acolyte debuts June 4 and it’s the first live-action Star Wars story ever not set in an era defined by a Skywalker. That means you can go in without any preparation. It’s a new time frame, with new characters and a whole new story, specifically built to be an entry point. But, also, this is Star Wars, and fans love to dig into all the characters and minutia, to see what secrets they can unlock.

To aid with that, Lucasfilm has released new character art clearly inspired by trading cards. Each has a cool new image on the front and a revealing biography on the back. Together, they help set the table for a few of the key characters in The Acolyte, which debuts on Disney+ next week.
