Fan Theory Surrounding The Acolyte Causes Online Ripples
The reception so far for Star Wars: The Acolyte on Disney+ has seen mixed reviews come its way. Despite this, there's a lot of chatter about a potential plot twist that could give the show a second wind.
The heart of this plot twist revolves around Osha, the main character, and her twin sister, Mae. Viewers learned in an episode that Osha decided to join the Jedi after their family house allegedly burned down as a result of something related to Mae.
Online Speculations ignite like a Galaxy on Fire
Although this narrative has provided some background about the twins, many fans believe that there is an unexpected plot twist being masked. They question how a lantern could cause such a huge fire and wonder why a Jedi arrived conveniently at the scene.
Even more intriguing are their speculations around Osha's dark side. Some discussions on Reddit predict that Osha might turn against her circle, resulting in a devastating event.
Could the Jedi be the Real Arsonists?
The fan theory even pushes the envelope further to suggest it could be the Jedi who are the real arsonists rather than Mae. The plot begins to fit together with Osha's indifference about her sister's fate and Mae's quest for revenge.
These theories point at unusual tactics by the Jedi, who are supposed to maintain peace. It's an interesting possibility that could perhaps show the Jedi's own descent, considering The Acolyte is set before the rise of the Sith.
Elon Musk Stirs Up a Space War With Words
Things are also heating up on Twitter, with tech tycoon Elon Musk blasting Lucasfilm CEO Kathleen Kennedy. Musk believes that Kennedy's ‘woke' concept for the all-female Jedi cast of The Acolyte poses a threat to the legacy of Star Wars.
Musk compared Kennedy's potential damage to the Star Wars franchise to that of the destructive Death Star. He criticized her for promoting an “agenda” with an all-female cast, thereby sidelining the male roles.
Musk and Disney have locked horns before. Last year, the Tesla CEO crossed paths with Disney CEO Bob Iger over the removal of ads from Musk's platform due to concerns about hate speech.
Amid all the controversies, The Acolyte undoubtedly remains a central point of interest, especially with the potential game-changing plot twist and real-life Twitter wars. The Star Wars series continues to unfold on Disney+, luring fans to the edge of their seats.
As things stand, the secret behind the fire incident and Osha's fate continue to shroud the series in mystery. The Acolyte, for sure, seems to be heating up both on and off-screen. Only time will tell if this high stakes speculation will indeed turn out to be the redeeming twist that revives the show.
