Star Wars followers have been buzzing a couple of probably enormous reveal in new footage from The Acolyte,and now a curious change to that footage on YouTube provides gas to the fireplace of its accuracy.
Andor Episodes 1-3 Evaluate
The Acolyte, which debuts on Disney+ June 4, is a couple of Jedi Grasp named Sol (Squid Recreation’s Lee Jung-jae) who units out on a mission to analyze crimes which might be being dedicated by his former apprentice, Mae (Amandla Stenberg). Did she do it? Did she not? A brand new TV spot ends with Stenberg’s character pleading along with her grasp that “I didn’t do it! Imagine me.” Solely, one thing isn’t fairly proper. That is the place this rumor is available in. Right here’s the clip, known as “Plan.”

Be aware: If what follows is true, it reveals a possible main plot level in The Acolyte. If you wish to be further protected and never be spoiled, we advise leaving now.
Within the second on the finish of the footage, followers (resembling those over at Bespin Bulletin) seen that the subtitles initially referred to Stenberg as “Osha” as a substitute of “Mae,” which is the character’s title that has been publically revealed. That, together with the very fact “Osha” is dressed utterly in another way than “Mae,” feeds a rumor that Stenberg is enjoying twins on The Acolyte, one on the trail of the Darkish Facet, one on the trail of the Gentle Facet.
However is that true? Is it not? Was it a mistake? These are questions we don’t have solutions to however io9 did discover a reasonably important piece of proof strongly suggesting somebody didn’t need the “Osha” character title on the market.
In some unspecified time in the future because the “Plan” TV spot was uploaded three days in the past, the subtitle settings on YouTube seem to have modified. The subtitles on the video default to “English (Auto Generated),” which doesn’t have character names. Quite the opposite, each different video on the Star Wars YouTube that we checked has an extra choice known as “English (United States),” which does have character names. So, did Lucasfilm ask for these to be turned off to guard the key? We don’t know. io9 reached out to Lucasfilm for clarification or readability on this matter and can replace the publish if or after we hear again.

Once more, perhaps that is only a mistake. Possibly after this publish goes up, the subtitle settings can be up to date (or rewritten). Possibly Osha is one other character fully. Or, perhaps, somebody tousled, received caught, and that is overlaying up the spoiler. What do you suppose is true?
We’re positive to search out out quickly when Star Wars: The Acolyte premieres June 4 on Disney+.
