RELATED: Talisa Garcia Joins Disney+ Series Willow, Becomes First Trans Actress Cast by Lucasfilm

The original Willow film was imagined by Star Wars creator George Lucas and directed by Ron Howard. The latter returns as an executive producer on the forthcoming series.

Willow starred Davis, 52, as a sorcerer determined to save the life of a child — Elora Danan — being hunted by a queen. After the original film, Lucas, 78, commissioned a three-part novel series from Chris Claremont, which takes place 15 years later.

Alongside Davis, the film also stars Ruby Cruz, Erin Kellyman, Ellie Bamber, Tony Revolori, Amer Chadha-Patel, Dempsey Bryk and Joanne Whalley.

Talisa Garcia is also set to star, marking the first time in Disney's history that an openly trans person will play a cisgender role.

Willow will begin streaming on Disney+ Nov. 30.
