Cult favourite Willow headed to UK steelbook in March

80s fantasy classid Willow is headed to UK steelbook on March 11th, and you can get your pre-order placed now!

From writer/producer George Lucas and director Ron Howard, and starring Warwick Davis and Val Kilmer, Willow is a firm favourite amongst viewers of a certain age.

When young Willow Ufgood (Warwick Davis, Harry Potter franchise) finds an abandoned baby girl, he learns she is destined to end the reign of the wicked Queen Bavmorda (Jean Marsh, Upstairs, Downstairs). In order to protect the child, Willow must team up with a rogue swordsman (Val Kilmer, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang) and overcome the forces of darkness in the ultimate battle of good versus evil.

As well as being a great adventure movie, for FX fans Willow is noteable as the first movie to use photorealistic ‘morphing’ effect in a movie, an effect that creators ILM would later refine and make famous in movies like T2.

Anyway, here’s the artwork, and you can pre-order from your usual supplier (at the time of writing Amazon is the cheapest at £11.20):
