Willow serves as a sequel to Ron Howard’s 1988 film of the same name, which originally starred Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley, and Warwick Davis. Davis returned to reprise his role for the original in this sequel series as aspiring sorcerer Willow, who embarks on a dangerous quest with a group of unlikely heroes.

In addition to Davis, the series also starred Ellie Bamber, Ruby Cruz, Erin Kellyman, Tony Revolori, Amar Chadha-Patel, and Dempsey Bryk.

Despite its recent cancelation, Willow is still an important assent in the Lucasfilm library, and its showrunner Jonathan Kasdan hinted it might return in the future, but it’s unclear when.

“I am confident I speak for everyone involved when I say that we’d all like nothing more than to deliver Volume 2, on the scale expected and demanded by the story we’re telling. Are we going into pre-production? Not right now. Does that mean we’re never gonna make it? Absolutely not,” he wrote on Twitter.

Ron Howard, the original film’s director, was excited about the project in the past. “I think it’d be a great way to go,” he said. “In fact, George always talked about the possibility of a Willow series, and it’d be great and more intimate, and built around that character and some of the others. And Jon Kasdan has, I think, an inspired take on it and it could be really, really cool.”

The original movie was released in 1988. Written by George Lucas, it told the story of Willow who saves the baby princess Elora Danan from an Evil queen Bavmorda. The film starred Warwick Davis and Val Kilmer. It garnered a modest success upon its release but over time it achieved somewhat of a cult status.
