The launch of the Disney+ Willow series took place in London yesterday. Screeners for the first three films were subject to a stricter social media blackout because of this.

Many of these comments were from people who saw a watermarked version of the film on their computers or mobile devices at home, rather than during a special screening. Nevertheless, everyone is relieved to see Warwick Davis’ Willow Ufgood again after twenty years; he played the mythical hero in the 1988 film Willow.

Had the chance to watch the first 3 episodes of #Willow and…well, I don't know. I love the characters and it's clear the actors are having a blast with genuine chemistry between them all. Dug the humor and interactions, but the story feels like one fantasy trope after another. pic.twitter.com/Oz7Rsh2FRy
