Disney's new Star Wars series, "The Acolyte," has introduced a scene featuring the first instance of a Star Wars live-action project using so-called “proper pronouns” when referring to a character, generating significant attention and mixed reactions on social media.
In a viral clip from the fourth episode titled “Day,” the protagonist Osha, played by Amandla Stenberg, is seen discussing with another female character about a third person in the scene. Stenberg’s character begins by asking “Who is that?” to which the other responds with the name “Bazil.” Stenberg then begins to ask “Is he-” before correcting herself to use gender-neutral pronouns, saying “-or they, with us?”
