What Star Wars shows and movies should you watch before The Acoylte?

The Acolyte is set during the final years of the High Republic era of the Star Wars timeline, which is set a few centuries before the events of Star Wars: Episode 1—The Phantom Menace and depicts the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic at the height of their power. This means you probably won’t miss out on anything if you’ve only watched the mainline Star Wars movies.

If you want to know everything that happened in the High Republic era, we have an excellent reading order guide for the many Star Wars: The High Republic books and comics. It’s too early to tell how big of a role forces like the Nihil will play in The Acolyte, but it wouldn’t hurt to look into The High Republic series, just in case.
