Disney+ Cancels Willow After Just One Season

According to a report from Deadline, Disney+ has cancelled Willow after just one season. Willow is a sequel series to George Lucas’ 1988 fantasy-adventure film of the same name. The first season premiered on Disney+ in November 2022.

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. Willow also starred Ellie Bamber, Ruby Cruz, Erin Kellyman, Tony Revolori, Amar Chadha-Patel, Dempsey Bryk, and Joanne Whalley.
