Vernestra and Sol in The Acolyte 

The Acolyterecently premiered with two episodes and has already proven to be a worthy addition to the Star Wars library. The show dares to try something new, focusing on the mystery of multiple Jedi getting murdered and the potential return of the Sith. The show combines this compelling mystery with action and fights, which has left many fans hungry for more.

Shang-Chi and Star Wars may not have a lot of similarities, but one thing this movie shares with The Acolyte is its stunt coordinator, Christopher Clark Cowan. Specifically, Cowan is listed as the second unit director and action designer for The Acolyte, while in Shang-Chi, he worked as a stunt coordinator and action designer. Other projects Cowan worked on include Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and Solo: A Star Wars Story.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is another one of David Fincher's works, meaning it delivers intense scenes and a thrilling mystery for those who need something to think about between The Acolyte episodes. Like The Acolyte, the movie also has phenomenal action, with badass characters and an ever-growing mystery for fans to rack their brains over. Despite being a bit darker, grittier, and grounded, the movie has a similar feeling to The Acolyte, mainly because of the action and mystery.

Being one of the most popular sci-fi recommendations of all time, The Matrix is a safe bet for any list. However, the movie also holds many similarities to The Acolyte, such as its abundance of great fight scenes. Both are set in unique sci-fi worlds that fans can quickly get engrossed in, but they are both mystery thrillers to get fans on the edge of their seats, wondering what will happen next. The Matrix also served as inspiration for The Acolyte, as directly stated by star Carrie-Anne Moss.
