Jen Richards' Reflects on Star Wars Legacy on ‘The Acolyte’
Bleeding Cool : What was it like working with Leslye creatively on ' The Acolyte , ' and how did you end up getting to co - compose the penultimate episode , " The Choice , " with Charmaine and Jasmyne ? Did you have any cerebration about this decision not to renew the series given what was put up and the potential that was lost ?
With Leslye , I would follow her into the attack of Mordor [ from ' Lord of the Rings ' ] . Leslye is brilliant and deeply a good person . I desire her mouthful , and I would go anywhere with her . She ’s astonishing . We all loved her and her vision of the show . She felt it was crucial for her to make certain all the writers in the way vex at least one episode and our name were on them . I enjoy her .
I am evidently disappointed . I do n’t retrieve [ snort ] that ’s unexpected to say that it did n’t get renewed . I thought some of the characters we create for ' The Acolyte ' were instantly iconic , particularly Manny ’s performance as Qimir is one for the ages . It is one of the greatest Star Wars villains and had some of the great fight scenes . We ’re in the midseason of ' The Acolyte , ' I love the outer space hag , which was our interlingual rendition of the ' Night Sisters , ' and I would have liked to have played in that sandpit a lot more .
