Star Wars: The Acolyte first trailer: Amandla Stenberg trains as a Sith Lord ... trends now
Star Wars: The Acolyte has released its first trailer and revealed the release date for the highly-anticipated series.
Amandla Stenberg and Carrie-Anne Moss could be seen battling it out in the nearly two-minute action packed clip.
The highly-anticipated series is set to debut on the Disney Plus streaming service June 4.
There was a noticeably darker tone than the rest of the Star Wars franchise in the clip as one of the main storylines in the series will be the murder of Jedi Masters as a deadly disturbance in The Force is teased.
Amandla portrays Mae, a former Padawan who is now a dangerous warrior now training to be Sith Lord.

She was formerly trained by Sol who is a respected Jedi Master portrayed by Emmy winning Squid Game actor Lee Jung-jae.
No doubt the two characters will be clashing at some point in the series as the logline reads: 'An investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-Jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Stenberg).
'As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems.'
One of the more interesting scenes came when The Matrix actress Carrie-Anne is seen in character as a Jedi Master named Indara as she battled it out with Mae.
Toward the end of the trailer Jodie Turner-Smith - who portrays Mother Aniseya, the leader of a coven of Witches - could be heard saying: 'This isn't about good or bad.
'This is about power... and who is allowed to use it.'
The trailer ends with someone holding onto the famous red Sith lightsaber as several Jedi have their weapons in hand as they run toward the enemy to fight it out.
