Star Wars: The Acoylte
During a recent interview with Comic Book, Amandla Stenberg stated her character, Mae, “utilizes [the Force] in a different way” than previously seen.
I think we live in a time in which there are a lot of conceptions around the Force and different communities that utilize the Force. And in our point in the timeline, the Jedi are kind of the ones dictating how the Force is utilized. And so I think it’s so fascinating for there to be the introduction of this character who utilizes it in a different way, and comes from a different community – almost a different spiritual community. And because of that, she’s more of a danger to them, because her kind of way of utilizing it differs from what they’re used to.
