Answering a fan’s question at a panel at FanExpo San Francisco, hosted by Collider’s Maggie Lovitt, The Acolyte’s Manny Jacinto played coy about what we could expect to see in a future season, and what his character’s connection was with Darth Plagueis.
“Oh man, that’s a tough question. They’re not [connected], they’re definitely not. Oh man, how do I answer that? What time is it? [laughs] There are definitely a lot of different theories, like who he is, because we never actually know his true identity. Is Qimir’s name actually Qimir? We definitely wanted to explore it. There was definitely going to be more of Plagueis in the second, or if not, the third seasons of the show, but I just can’t say, because, you know, we could come back. I don’t want to spoil anything, or give anybody any false hope, but I would just say there was a lot more to explore, for sure.”
