Who is playing Elora Danan in the new Willow series?
The new Willow series debuted its first two episodes yesterday, and they feature the return of the 1988's film's Warwick Davis and Joanne Whalley . In the original film, Willow teams up with some unlikely new friends in order to protect Elora Danan, a baby who was prophesied to bring down the evil Queen Bavmorda and become the empress of Tir Asleen, Galladoorn, Nockmaar, and Cashmere.
Elora is first introduced as Dove who works in the kitchens at the Tir Asleen castle. She falls in love with Airk , the son of Sorsha and Madmartigen . When Airk is kidnapped, Dove secretly follows the team assembled to find him, which includes Airk's sister, Kit . Upon meeting Willow at the end of the episode, the Nelwyn sorcerer uncovers the birthmark on her arm, proving her identity. In the second episode, Willow attempts to teach Elora magic, but the young apprentice seems hopeless.
Is Madmartigen Part of the Willow Series?While Val Kilmer was unable to return to play Madmartigen, Bryk and Cruz both capture the star's essence while playing his twin children. Recently, the duo had a chat with ComicBook.com's Chris Killian, and he asked if there was anything from Kilmer's performance in the original film that they tried to"latch on to" in order to"make it feel more believable" that they were the children of Madmartigan.
"Yeah, absolutely," Bryk replied."Definitely," Cruz agreed."Yeah, I think having access to that character was so helpful because we could sort of envision or imagine, we didn't have to imagine who he was, but then we could imagine how he was as a parent, which was really fun ... What we would admire, what we would reject, and I mean... I don't know how much we can spoil.
