Decades after the original film was released in 1988, 'Willow' is back, and this time we got it as an eight-episode series on Disney+ Hotstar. 'Willow' follows our favorite protagonist on a new journey and brings Warwick Davis back as the titular character - Willow Ufgood, the aspiring sorcerer who is now High Aldwyn of the Nelwyn people. Joining Davis is Joanne Whaley as Queen Sorsha, Dempsey Bryk as Prince Airk, Ruby Cruz as Prince Airk's sister Kit, and Ellie Bamber, Erin Kellyman, Tony Revolori, and Amar Chada-Patel in other prominent roles.

Written and executive produced by showrunner Jonathan Kasdan with Ron Howard and Roopesh Parekh as executive producers, the series walks a tonal line between epic fantasy, comedy, and a reverence for the original with a contemporary edge.

So, if you are already liking the series and are waiting for a new episode of 'Willow', here are some more fantasy fiction titles that you must add to your binge list:
