‘Willow’ Special Look Video: Are You Ready for an Epic Adventure?

The minute-long “Special Look” video for Disney+’s Willow showcases the return of the titular character, teases a search for Elora, and declares “their first quest is the world’s last hope.” There’s a little bit of action, some magical moments, a lot of humor, and a character who looks like the Cryptkeeper.

The new video arrived along with the final poster for season one.

Warwick Davis reprises his role as Willow and Joanne Whalley returns as Sorsha. The cast also includes Ellie Bamber, Ruby Cruz, Erin Kellyman, Tony Revolori, Amar Chadha-Patel, and Dempsey Bryk.

Ron Howard, director of the 1988 film (written by George Lucas and Bob Dolman), executive produces along with Kathleen Kennedy, Michelle Rejwan, Jonathan Kasdan, Tommy Harper, Wendy Mericle, Roopesh Parekh, and Samie Kim Falvey. John Bickerstaff, Hannah Friedman, and Jonathan Kasdan are the season one writers, and Stephen Woolfenden, Julia Cooperman, Hameed Shaukat, and Max Taylor serve as producers.

Willow is set to premiere on Disney+ on November 30, 2022.

Poster for Disney+’s ‘Willow’

Disney+ released the following description of Willow:

“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.”
