Will There Be a Star Wars: The Acolyte Season 2?

A second season of Star Wars: The Acolyte has not been confirmed, though creator Leslye Headland told IGN there is "absolutely room" for the series to continue. "I’m just the kind of person where I want to make sure a season feels like a legitimately whole story, and I definitely pepper in a lot of like, 'Here’s how it could go this way, it could go that way,'" said Headland.

"I also don’t want to leave the audience hanging emotionally," she continued. "I want to leave them hanging narratively but emotionally I want them to feel like they’ve watched a whole thing, and then still have a bunch of questions at the end like, 'Wait, now that I’ve learned this relationship exists, what’s going to happen with those people, and now that this person has this type of power, what are we going to do about that?'"
