The Acolyte's initial viewership of 11.1 million declined sharply, leading to the lowest-rated Star Wars series finale at 335 million minutes viewed.
The financial struggles at Disney hampered The Acolyte, which was costly to produce, leading to expectations that ultimately proved unmet due to weaker ratings.
Despite The Acolyte's production costs being lower than competitors like The Rings of Power, they were still high for a Star Wars series, contributing to its cancellation.
Bob Iger's return as CEO prioritized cost-cutting, impacting The Acolyte negatively as it failed to bring the expected subscriber boost or merchandising revenue.
