With The Acolyte (also known as Star Wars: The Acolyte) set to premiere soon, viewers are wondering about the exact release time. Created by Leslye Headland, the sci-fi series takes place in the High Republic era’s last days in the Star Wars universe. The story centers around a respected Jedi Master who finds himself entangled in the investigation of mysterious crimes. Alongside his former Padawan learner, they set out to uncover the truth.
Here is everything to know about the release time of The Acolyte on Disney Plus.
What time do The Acolyte Episode 1 and 2 come out on Disney Plus?
The Acolyte Episodes 1 and 2 will come out together on June 4, 2024, at 6:00 P.M. PT and 9:00 P.M. ET. Viewers in the U.K. will be able to stream the episodes on June 5, 2024, at 2:00 A.M. BST.
After premiering two episodes on June 4, the series will release subsequent episodes at the same time every week. Consequently, the series finale is set to air on July 16, 2024.
Is The Acolyte Episode 1 delayed?
No, the release of The Acolyte Episode 1 is not delayed. It is simply adopting a new release time of 6:00 P.M. PT instead of the usual 12:00 A.M. PT slot.
The new adjustment in the release time is due to the success of the shows with the nighttime release slot, such as Loki. It aligns with the trend observed for Star Wars’ live-action Disney Plus shows, and the animated projects within the Star Wars universe, such as The Bad Batch, will likely maintain their current release times. Meanwhile, the flagship shows like The Acolyte will be released earlier in the day, similar to the release schedule for Ahsoka.
Viewers can expect a captivating journey as The Acolyte Season 1 delves into the new mysteries and the ominous rise of the dark side.
