It seems like it's been forever that we've been hearing rumblings about Ron Howard revisiting the world of Willow. Well now it appears that it may be finally happening in the form of a new series at Disney+ after the streaming service premieres in a few months. Now word has broken that Ron Howard and Solo writer Jon Kasdan have been in discussions to bring the series to the smaller screen. And they are definitely bringing Warwick Davis back to the role when it finally gets underway!
Ron Howard had this to say about the possibilities:
"There are some really serious discussions going on with Jon Kasdan, who was one of the writers of Solo, who kept hounding me about Willow the whole time we were shooting and also hounding Kathy Kennedy. We’re in discussions about developing a Willow television show for the Disney+. And I think it’d be a great way to go. 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."
