Willow S1
Article Index

This fantasy adventure television series is billed as a sequel to the 1988 film that for some reason gave me nightmares for three straight years. Six heroes are on a dangerous quest to far away places where they’ll face their inner demons and try to save their world. Trans British actress Talisa Garcia’s casting as the Queen (a cis character) in the series makes her the first openly trans actor cast in a Lucasfilm production. In the trailer, Jade (Erin Kellyman) and Kit (Ruby Cruz) sure do seem like they are going to be getting INTIMATE.
