STAR WARS: THE ACOLYTE Actor Shares Cool Behind the Scenes Lightsaber Fight Training Video
While I’m not the biggest fan of The Acolyte, I can’t deny the impressive hard work that goes into creating a big action sequence like the lightsaber battle we saw in Episode 5.
Episode 5 was basically one massive lightsaber fight as the villain took on a group of Jedi, many of whom he slaughtered.
The fight choreography in this episode was really good, and they did some really cool and unique things in it. Manny Jacinto, who plays Qimir in the series, recently shared a behind the scenes video featuring his stunt training, and damn… it would be cool to be able to do this kind of stuff!
The video came with the following note: "The Acolyte Stunt Team. Thank you for all the lessons, your trust, your patience, the hard work, the inspiring dedication, and for so many laughs. Proud to have gone through this with you all."
Enjoy the video!
