Director Ron Howard and thespian Warwick Davis took to Twitter this week to tweet about a potential Willow sequel. Howard responded to a fan asking for just that by tweeting:
Glad you are asking for one! I directed @WarwickADavis for the 1st time in 30 years today. It made me happy https://t.co/yW8E19MPCn

Davis also chimed in to stroke Howard’s ego, tweeting:
Reminded me what a wonderful experience #Willow was, made so by your expert direction & friendship. After 30yrs, you've still got the magic! https://t.co/KzQd2bFtyH

Could this love-fest lead to an actual Willow sequel? Well, there are no plans for that. But it did reveal that Davis has some role in the Han Solo movie which Howard is directing. The return of the Ewoks?! Finally!
The tweets prompted headlines all over the entertainment media touting both the Willow sequel (which is a longshot at best) and the Star Wars news, despite the fact that Davis had already revealed that he was on the film back in May when he said he was filming Star Wars in the Pinewood Studios where the Han Solo movie was being filmed.
Happy #StarWarsDay! May the 4th be with you! Today, I have the privilege of actually being in that galaxy far, far away at Pinewood Studios. pic.twitter.com/OIm8qTnUKi

About Jude Terror
A prophecy says that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero will come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events.
Scourge of Rich Johnston, maker of puns, and seeker of the Snyder Cut, Jude Terror, sadly, is not the hero comics needs right now... but he's the one the industry deserves.
