This is the best summary I could come up with:

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 wanted for the cast to feel transported to literally different planets," said Ms Headland.So where can you find the futuristic locations of The Acolyte in Wales?

A small, empty lot to the west of Trago Mills in Merthyr Tydfil was used during The Acolyte.Several fields opposite the Welsh branch of the UK department store were used for filming, with production trailers setting up in a nearby vacant lot.It’s unknown whether any Wookiees popped in for a Welsh cake at Bakestones.

Much of The Acolyte’s Welsh filming was for the scenes on Brendok – the mysterious planet that spawned the Force-sensitive twins, Osha and Mae, played by Lauren and Leah Brady.A flashback in episode three reveals the young twins playing under a Bunta Tree, with Taf Fechan stepping in for the forests of Brendok that surround them.The Welsh countryside can be seen extensively throughout the series, with Taf Fechan forest used frequently for scenes set on Brendok.

A drained reservoir in Bannau Brycheiniog was the site of the Jedi ship in episode three.Upper Neuadd Reservoir is currently empty, but once helped to provide potable water to the Merthyr Tydfil area.The site provides an excellent clearing to play host to a Jedi landing site, and it’s where Osha and Mae encounter the Wookiee Jedi master, Kelnacca, as he fixes up a speeder.You can spot its distinctive treeline in the background during these scenes.

"You have to remember that they weren’t at war in the middle of the Roman Empire," said production designer, Kevin Jenkins.
