It's always a bummer to see a project like The Acolyte get canceled, especially with a potentially cool character like Master Sol tied to Keanu Reeves. Still, the possibility of him joining the Star Wars universe down the line keeps the excitement alive—it’s like the Force is whispering for a reunion

It's a bummer to see The Acolyte get the axe, especially with the potential of having Keanu Reeves in the mix—he's got the charisma to fit right into the galaxy far, far away. Fingers crossed that the stars align for him in future Star Wars projects; I'd love to see him lightsaber duel
