Star Wars The Acolyte The Follower is the next TV series dedicated to the Galaxy Far, Far Away arriving on Disney Plus. We will have the opportunity to see a period before the Skywalker saga and therefore meet many new characters. One of these, according to actress Dafne Keen, will practically be David Bowie, but in a Jedi version.
Dafne Keen (known for her role as Laura/C-23 in Logan) plays Jedi padawan Jecki Lon. During a recent chat with Empire, Keen said, “As soon as we did our makeup, I went to showrunner Leslye Headland and said, ‘This is David Bowie.’ And she said, ‘You’re absolutely right.'” We joked. about him being like a Jedi David Bowie.”
“It’s an almost funky ’70s and ’80s look, really cool. I was so excited about the braid – as a Star Wars fan, having a Padawan braid is the craziest thing in the world. I was so excited when they put it in. ‘Oh my God, I have my padawan braid!’ It was really nice.”

During the chat, Keen also teased and defined the type of relationship his character will have with the other Jedi Jecki Lon “mature for her age”.
Keen talks about a “very fun dynamic between Jecki and Charlie Barnett’s character, Yord [Fandar] – he’s a great friend, I love him. Jecki is much more competent than him, all the time. But he is a Knight [Jedi], because he is older. So there’s this really interesting dynamic, with him being a little useless and her thinking, ‘You need to try harder.’ It was really fun to play.”
“We already knew he was talented because we all saw it,” he added of Lee Jung-jae, who plays Jecki’s Master, Sol. “But he was doing scenes in a language that wasn’t his. He didn’t know English! He was learning his lines, and he was doing them great. He was doing a better job than 90% of us on set, it was crazy.” .
Still speaking of The Acolyte The Follower, true Star Wars fans defend the laser whip.
