Lucasfilm has revealed the trailer to its highly anticipated "Star Wars" series "The Acolyte," from "Russian Doll" co-creator Leslye Headland, which will debut on Disney+ with two episodes on June 4.
The trailer begins with "Squid Game" actor Lee Jung-jae as Jedi Master Sol leading a group of younglings in meditation, telling them, "Your eyes can deceive you. We must not trust them."

"Light," one young student offers, while another says "balance." A third, likely the younger version of Amandla Stenberg's character Mae, darkly says, "I see fire."
Stenberg's masked assassin is shown facing off with a Jedi played by "The Matrix" franchise veteran Carrie-Anne Moss. She repeatedly dodges then uses the Force to shove her away.
"Someone is killing Jedi," a character explains. "It doesn't make sense."
There's a shot of a hunting party of eight Jedi and a quick reveal of a pensive Wookiee with his normally furry head shaved in the style of a samurai, complete with a top knot.
"This isn't about good or bad," Jodie Turner-Smith's Aniseya advises. "This is about power and who is allowed to use it."
The hunting party, including "Logan" actress Dafne Keen, ultimately find themselves facing a threat in a dark forest. Just then, a red Sith lightsaber spins through the air, slashing the trees around them before its unseen owner calls it back to their hand.
