“I meet lovely people on a daily basis who are fans of #Willow, who are the reason the @DisneyPlus Series was made. Please tell me @WaltDisneyCo, what do I say to these subscribers when they ask why they can’t watch the series any more? #embarrassing,” Davis wrote. You can view his post below:
Jonathan Kasdan Reacts To Willow‘s Cancellation:
In May, Willow showrunner Jonathan Kasdan shared his hopes for the show’s future.
“I’ve been quiet on this news that Willow is leaving [Disney+] ’cause… I’m kinda into it. I grew up at a time when [Disney] movies were periodically re-released and not available to own, and it made them… more special. I worry about many things…but NONE of them are that Willow will never be available again, either on [Disney+] or perhaps… someplace else, & ya never know where that could lead… stranger things have happened,” Kasdan shared on Twitter. “So grateful for all the love and enthusiasm; it’s truly what keeps these worlds alive.”
Shortly before the show was canceled, Kasdan spoke with Radio Times and provided a promising update about Season 2, which had fans hopeful for a different outcome. He revealed that conversations with Lucasfilm and Disney+ about a second season of Willow were “going good” and that the team is “eager to do it.”
Kasdan explained, “It’s a strange and unpredictable time here in Hollywood. You see it all over the industry – there are shows that were well on their way to moving forward that haven’t, shows that never expected to be in a second season that are – so you never know where you’re going to be and you never know where the world is going to end up in a year or whatever.” He added, “But I will tell you that these things take so long to get going and then to make that the attitude and the support from Lucasfilm has been: ‘We definitely want to keep telling these stories, but we don’t know what the future holds.’”
