Great Featurette for Lucasfilm's WILLOW Focuses on the Fantasy World the Story Is Set In
While we wait for Disney+ to debut Lucasfilm’s Willow series, we have a new featurette to share with you that puts a focus on the return of Willow and offers a behind the scenes look at this epic fantasy world. I’ve been very excited about watching this show and so far I like what I’m seeing! I just love that this George Lucas and Ron Howard story is going to continue after all these years, and it looks like it’s going to tell a story that fans are going to love.
The story began when an aspiring sorcerer, played by Warwick Davis, “is whisked away on a journey to protect an infant empress Elora Danan and vanquish the evil Queen Bavmorda from their world of Andowyne. Now, the story continues with Davis reprising his titular role, as he leads an unlikely crew of heroes on a quest to protect Andowyne from an even larger foe than they had imagined possible.”
The series also stars Erin Kellyman (Solo: A Star Wars Story, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier), Ellie Bamber (Nocturnal Animals), Ruby Cruz (Mare of Easttown), Tony Revolori (The Grand Budapest Hotel), Dempsey Bryk (The Birch), Talisa Garcia (Serve and Protect, Baptiste), and Game Of Thrones actress Rosabell Laurenti Sellers. Christian Slater also stars in the series and we get our first look at him in this featurette.
Jonathan Kasdan (Solo) wrote the pilot episode and will act as showrunner alongside Wendy Mericle (Arrow). The epic fantasy adventure is set in an age of swords, sorcery, myths, and monsters, and Lucasfilm will release it on Disney+ on November 30th!
