London, 2023. Leslye Headland stepped onto the Star Wars Celebration stage to talk about her new show, The Acolyte. The excitement in the room grew as she explained her vision and showed a sneak peek. However, I found it most endearing when she mentioned she used to write fan fiction.

That was the moment I knew I was going to fall in love with The Acolyte. That was the moment I knew that Star Wars was finally making something with fans like me in mind. They brought out the cast, and it was immediately clear that so many people who have historically been left out of the narrative would see themselves reflected in this story.
