We spoke w/ TonyRevolori and Ellie Bamber about Willow and what it was like to join such a beloved franchise.
High fantasy is a genre that has fascinated audiences for decades, and continues to do so with its promises of adventure, magic, and worlds we can hardly fathom for ourselves. With the popularity of shows like House of the Dragon and Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, audiences have any number of chances to be swept away into beautiful, magical worlds filled with adventures beyond their wildest dreams, an escape from reality that never grows old.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Collider was excited to sit down with series stars Tony Revolori and Ellie Bamber, who play two unlikely heroes: Graydon, a prince from a neighboring kingdom betrothed to Queen Sorsha’s daughter Kit , and Dove, a kitchen maid with a big heart and even bigger potential.
BAMBER: Yeah, I think that I definitely had some nerves attached just simply because of the scale of the show, and also the amount of detail and how much hard work had gone into the show. I mean, definitely we had such an incredible creative team to rely on, but I wasn't without my nerves. But you can get excited, so excited about working on a show like this, so you can change the nerves into excitement after a while.
REVOLORI: No, I think there's a bit of overlap in the Venn diagram of both those things. It might be not as big as you would imagine, but regardless it's the same kind of core behind the scene elements and being able to have these creative conversations with people and the scale of what is done. So yeah, it's a lot of that stuff.
