To tie in with the release of the first episode of Lucasfilm’s “Willow” on Disney+, the cast and filmmakers attended a special premiere event at the Regency Village Theatre in Westwood. Guests were treated to the first two episodes of the epic series filled with excitement, magic, and non-stop adventure.
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.
