Story

The "Age of Light" was a time of peace, when many Jedi preached their teachings. One day, however, a Jedi is suddenly murdered. Who is this black masked, knife-wielding woman? The scene in which the Jedi stand up against her with multicolored lightsabers in their hands raises expectations for a spectacular action sequence. How was the "darkness" of Darth Vader, who later symbolized the "dark side," really born? The curtain now opens on an epic hard-hitting action thriller that depicts the beginning of the "Star Wars" created by George Lucas.

The newly released poster shows a lightsaber with red blood on it. The poster is set about 100 years before "Episode I: The Phantom Menace," and the story is about the shadow of the dark side creeping into the golden age of the Jedi, and the mystery of the birth of the dark side. The dark side is the Sith, but in "The Phantom Menace," the Jedi Council was told that the Sith were destroyed 1,000 years ago, and Darth Maul appeared before the Jedi to let them know that the Sith had returned. The Sith are now back. We wonder if the enemy appearing in Acolyte is a Sith, and the fact that it is 100 years before the Phantom Menace makes us expect Yoda to make an appearance, but let's keep guessing and wait for more information!
