Willow is set to debut TOMORROW (November 30) with Warwick reprising his titular role as the Nelwyn sorcerer returns, years after rescuing the infant empress Elora Danan, to lead an unlikely crew of heroes on a quest to protect Andowyne from an even larger foe than they had imagined possible.

Disney+ is resurrecting the world of Willow!
The streaming service announced it’s plans for a TV series based off George Lucas‘ 1988 film, which is an epic fantasy adventure set in an age of swords, sorcery, myths and monsters.
The TV series spinoff is the first non-Star Wars entity since 2015 and it will take place years after the original, with the movie’s original star Warwick Davis (pictured here) reprising his role!
“So many fans have asked me over the years if Willow will make a return, and now I’m thrilled to tell them that he will indeed,” Warwick said in a statement. “Many have told me they grew up with Willow and that the film has influenced how they view heroism in our own world. If Willow Ufgood can represent the heroic potential in all of us, then he is a character I am extremely honored to reprise.”
The director of the original film, Ron Howard, also shared a statement about the new TV series. He will also executive produce the show.
“It’s creatively exciting to not only revisit the world and characters first conceived by George Lucas, Bob Dolman and myself but to see it take flight in such fresh, fun and cinematic ways through the imagination of Jon Kasdan and Team Willow,” Ron shared. “This isn’t a nostalgic throw-back, it’s a creative lean-forward and it’s a blast to be a part of it all.”
Jon M Chu will direct the pilot, written by Jonathan Kasdan, who will also serve as co-showrunner with Wendy Mericle. The trio will also serve as an executive producers on the series, which will begin production in 2021.
The original Willow movie is currently available to stream on Disney+!
Tom Felton, Evanna Lynch and Rupert Grint all gather up for a group photo at the Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Preview event held at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter on Tuesday night (June 11) in Orlando, Fla.
The three Harry Potter stars (aka Draco, Luna and Ron) were joined by Warwick Davis and twins James and Oliver Phelps at the event.
The group welcomed guests to the opening ceremony event, which kicked off the grand opening celebration of Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure that opens this weekend.

Just a few days before, Tom and Rupert were spotted checking out the Universal Orlando park and Tom got the scare of his life! See it below:
We think Tom Felton and Matthew Lewis are just a little disappointed with their true patronuses, after taking a Pottermore quiz.
Obviously, Matthew (Neville Longbottom) was hoping for The Rock, and Tom, well…he didn’t get his fire breathing dragon.
Instead, they both got cats!
Tom learned that if Dementors ever came his way, he’d have some help of a ragdoll cat.
Matthew has a tortoiseshell cat at his side — and he didn’t seem to mind it at all, actually.
Warwick Davis, who played both Griphook and Professor Filius Flitwick in the franchise, also took the quiz and found out his own Patronus would be a weasel.

James, Oliver and Warwick were seen grabbing a butterbeer at the event while Evanna stood at the gates, with a lantern to anyone who was brave enough to go inside.
Just a couple of weeks before, Evanna, James and Oliver joined Jason Isaacs for the preview event where they also welcomed a hippogriff.
The Forbidden Forest leg of London’s Warner Bros Studio Tour opens on March 31st.
