After years of speculation and anticipation, fans of the classic ‘80s fantasy film “Willow” finally have something to be excited about. After executive producer Ron Howard and Lucasfilm director Kathleen Kennedy got together with screenwriter Jonathan Kasdan, they had the perfect team to reboot this beloved story as a series also called “Willow.”

What Is The “Willow” Series All About?

The story of the movie “Willow” has been a favorite classic for many years, and at the heart of the narrative is a special baby named Elora Danan. Through Elora’s miraculous birth, it is revealed that she is meant to become an empress and save everyone from the darkness. As soon as she is found by Willow Ufgood, played by Warick Davis, an adventure begins as he sets out on his journey to take Elora to safety.

As the movie ends, Madmartigan (Val Kilmer) and Elora’s mother (Rebecca Bearman) are off doing their part to protect the world and all its inhabitants. At the same time, Willow (Warwick Davis) and Queen Sorsha (Joanne Whalley) have also successfully completed their quest - saving precious baby Elora.

As the years pass, Willow and Sorsha’s disagreement over Elora’s upbringing put an enormous strain on their friendship. Willow wanted to teach Elora everything he had learned in the realm of magic, while Sorsha wanted Elora to grow up like any other young girl.

When the series begins, decades have passed, and everything has changed. Willow is living far away while Sorsha has become queen, having to take on the oppressive legacy left behind by her mother.

You will also find out that Elora has still not reached her destiny. Actually, the series begins with a brave princess in pursuit of her kidnapped twin brother.

Indeed, the extraordinary tale of “Willow” begins with the disappearance of Airk Tanthalos (Dempsey Bryk), the son of Sorsha, which leads Princess Kit (Ruby Cruz) to set out on a brave mission to find him. Surrounding her on the quest is an imaginative mixture of characters, including Kit’s girlfriend, Jade (Erin Kellyman).
