Latest Star Wars TV series The Acolyte proves that the Force is strong in Wales - after pivotal scenes were shot across Bannau Brycheiniog.
Starring Amandla Stenberg and Lee Jung-jae, the new Star Wars show brought a glimpse of sci-fi action to the national park - also known as the Brecon Beacons - as well as the south Wales valleys as the production spread across several locations in the country.
“We shot a lot in Wales,” said showrunner Leslye Headland. “What was incredible about Wales was that, you know, you could shoot in a beautiful wooded area, but then if you moved up further, you’d be in snow.”
Welcoming both Jedi and other Force users, Wales has officially become part of the galaxy far, far away for the very first time.

A big reason that Hollywood is located SoCal. Joshua Tree National Park, the Mojave Desert, the Chanel Islands, and the Sierra Nevadas are all a few hours away from the central lot.
Wait, they’ve got sheep shagging jedi?
Sorry. Not sorry. It’s an old joke, but I’m old, so nyah.
