'cancelled'
SUMMARY

Disney+ has canceled its "Star Wars" series, "The Acolyte," after one season. The decision follows the series' initial success, with 4.8 million views on its premiere day and a strong start in the Nielsen rankings. However, it struggled to maintain viewership, eventually dropping from the Top 10. While the series received a 78% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it divided "Star Wars" fans, which likely influenced the cancellation. Creator Leslye Headland had expressed hopes for a second season but will not see her ideas come to fruition.
