Yeah it was in my comic book news feed yesterday along with a rumored Kingdom Come series on HBO Max with Brandon Routh.

Kilmer's health would make that challenging, but I hope they find a way...

[Nostalgiabuff]

he's been acting again but yes, you can see the toll it took on him

[Bruce Banner]

I followed the progress of Willow in the Lucasfilm Fanclub Magazine and in the various SF mags back then.
I had high hopes for it.
In the end, it was just okay.

But Jean Marsh was brilliant as Queen Bavmorda.

the original film spent too much time in the Halfling village, which made it a bit slow. it would have been better if they set out on the quest faster and there was more action

[Klosterheim]

I do want to see a Willow TV Series!

I feel they can do a lot of good stuff in it.

Some wizard and wizard apprentice training and relationship would be cool.

Thought the thread was about this Willow
