Recently, Warwick Davis shared a few thoughts about “Willow,” the canceled Disney+ show.
The show premiered on Disney+ in November 2022, and just two months after the end of its first season, it was rejected for additional content.
The show was based on the 1988 Lucasfilm movie of the same title, “Willow.” It ran an eight-episode first season and received mixed reviews. The show served as a sequel to the classic film directed by Ron Howard.
In the original high-fantasy film, a young farmer named Willow Ulfgood is chosen to go on a dangerous journey. His task is to fulfill a prophecy and save a special infant from a murderous, power-hungry sorceress and queen.
As per the description previously on Disney+, “Willow” is “an epic period fantasy series with a modern sensibility set in an enchanted land of breathtaking beauty.”

It’s a travesty that @DisneyPlus value shareholders over subscribers in their creative decision-making. #Justsaying
I only ever saw each episode once!

Nearly a year and a half after the show was removed from Disney+, Warwick Davis is sharing his disdain for the show being canceled. He took to social media, sharing a behind-the-scenes photo from the show and referring to the cancellation of the show as “a travesty.” Other fans of “Willow” surely share Davis’ frustration in no longer being able to watch its one and only season.
Disney canceled another show just this year, “The Acolyte,” in a similar fashion after just one season. The Disney+ Star Wars series finished its eight-episode run on July 16, 2024.
Do you think the “Willow” franchise will ever return? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
