Taking to the stage at the recent Indiana Comic Convention, The Acolyte star Manny Jacinto took the inevitable question about the future of the show, and whether he saw himself being a part of any future storytelling in that era, and unsurprisingly for someone so present on the convention scene and willing to face the fans head on his response was very much to the positive.

“Oh, yeah, I mean, there is no Stranger without Leslye Headland. Again, it’s the people that helped build this character — it’s not just me. It’s the costume designers, our writers, all that stuff. It took a team to build Qimir, to build the Stranger. I’d love to work with them again as well.”

We’re here to chat about this and much more on Making Tracks and other Fantha Tracks Radio shows, as well as Good Morning Tatooine on Sunday nights, so drop us a line on news@fanthatracks.com and we’ll give you a shout out on the show.
