Star of "Squid Game" Lee Jung-Jae Joins Disney+ "Star Wars" Series: "The Acolyte"

Written By 3nions Staff

He co-stars in the Disney+ series alongside Amandla Stenberg, who plays the lead.

The era of the Jedi's greatest power will be examined in The Acolyte.

Leslye Headland, “Russian Doll” co-creator is creating The Acolyte at Lucasfilm.

Lee made his name on Squid, which debuted just a year ago and quickly rose to prominence in pop culture and Netflix's most-watched series rankings.

The Mandalorian's success served as the impetus for the recent Star Wars expansion on Disney+, which includes The Acolyte.

Lee's casting was first revealed by Deadline.

The Acolyte's release date is still unknown.
