Regardless of your opinion onThe Acolyte, which frankly could go either way considering the incredibly divisive reception that it received, fans are seemingly in agreement on at least one thing; we’re gonna miss The Stranger.
In arecent Reddit threadon the Star Wars subreddit, fans shared their misery regarding The Stranger in a thread titled “Despite The Acolyte being canceled, I hope we can see Qimir again in some capacity. Coolest dark sider we’ve seen in years IMO.”
“The sensory deprivation helmet, the second blade used as a strategic dagger, and the first Darkside user in years to just slaughter Jedi on screen…”said one comment, “It’s such a shame.”

“He was honestly the highlight of the show tbh…”read another, “I hope they do something with him”.
As for whether or not we will see more of The Stranger, it’s possible. Nothing officially announced of course, but it’s possible.
However I’d wager we’ll definitely hear about something regarding the character in the future at the very least, even if we don’t actually see him on screen.
Unless Disney plans to completely de-canonizeThe Acolyte, there are simply too many important plot points the show set up for us not to hear something else regarding it in the future.
