One year after The Acolyte was canceled, Forbes writer Paul Tassi revisited the controversy—and delivered a reminder that may surprise even the most diligent fans: the series didn’t actually break Star Wars canon. If your social feed has been ablaze with complaints about Jedi lore, Dark Side mechanics, or timeline inconsistencies, Tassi argues it’s time to take a deep breath. Showrunner Leslye Headland made a point of ensuring nothing in the narrative crossed the boundaries of canon, no matter how provocative it looked on the surface. Dissecting the Canon Controversy In his article, Tassi points out that every eyebrow-raising twist in The Acolyte holds up under scrutiny.

Ewan McGregor Reportedly Joins Hayden Christensen in Ahsoka Season 2
The galaxy might be in for a reunion worthy of a holovid highlight reel. During an appearance at Fan Expo Boston 2025, Ewan McGregor—our forever Obi-Wan Kenobi—appears to have let slip that he’ll be joining Hayden Christensen in Ahsoka Season 2. While Lucasfilm hasn’t issued an official statement, multiple attendee reports and photos from the panel suggest the Star Wars prequel duo will be sharing the screen once again. A Possible “Oops” Moment on Stage According to Star Wars News Net, the reveal came in the form of an off-the-cuff remark. Allegedly, McGregor told the audience: “We begin shooting season two [Ahsoka] soon – wait, was I supposed to say that?” The line has been widely shared online, but without video evidence, it remains in the category of “unverified but juicy.” Nexus Point News, who posted photos of McGregor and Christensen together at the event, also claimed on social media…
