The show follows Amandla Stenberg in the dual use of Osha and Mae , babe who were separate in their youth . Osha is a former Padawan who reconnects with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes during the ending of the High Republic era .

In the process , Osha ’s story bring in viewing audience to a wide variety of supporting stars . Among them are Carrie - Anne Moss ’s Indara , a Jedi Master drink down by Mae , and Qimir , Mae ’s Sith master . Qimir ’s actor might storm situation comedy lover since the eccentric is played by an role player substantially known for their work on a democratic telecasting comedy .

The Acolyte Shows How Much Top Gun: Maverick Wasted Manny Jacinto
The Good Place Supporting Star Was Almost Entirely Cut From Top Gun’s Sequel
While many viewers may not have even noticed this , The Good Place ’s Manny Jacinto had a support role inTop Gun : Maverick . Jacinto ’s work inThe Good Placeproved he could be funny and magnetic , andThe Acolytehas since regard the actor display a great amount of dramatic reach . Both of these showcases prove thatTop Gun : Maverickwasted Jacinto ’s natural endowment by leaving almost all of his quality ’s sieve metre on the cutting room floor . Top Gun : Maverickhad a lot to Libra , butThe Acolytemakes the brevity of Jacinto ’s almost non - real role even more of a shame .
To be mediocre to Jacinto , Top Gun : Maverickdeleted another pivotal scenestarring Lewis Pullman ’s B.O.B and Monica Barbaro ’s Phoenix because it ran the risk of perturb from the master narrative . The sequel was pore on Maverick ’s character reference arc and his relationship with Miles Teller ’s Rooster , so it is perhaps unsurprising that Jacinto ’s superfluous Fritz got so little screen meter . However , Glen Powell ’s scene - slip turn as Hangman inTop Gun : Maverickeffectively launch the actor into blockbuster stardom . As such , it is fair to say that Jacinto ’s Fritz could have get more history focus from the sequel .
Top Gun 3 Should Bring Back Manny Jacinto’s Fritz
Top Gun: Maverick Wasted The Supporting Character
Now thatThe Acolytehas proven how various Jacinto is , the sensation will have a higher visibility and will be even more of a proven endowment by the timeTop Gun 3 ’s production commences . It would be fairish to expect the filmmaker to expand his role in the sequel , turning Fritz into the to the full fleshed - out corroborate character reference he could have been inTop Gun : rebel . In the process , Top Gun : Maverick ’s sequel could use some of that charisma , witticism , and dramatic range that Jacinto has displayed inThe AcolyteandThe Good Place , make up for its predecessor ’s missed opportunity .
