Warwick Davis is the only confirmed returning cast member so far. I was a huge fan of Willow as a kid, it wasn't the best movie of all time by any means, but it was still a pretty epic adventure with great action and lots of fantasy that holds up well today. This movie was what got me started in my lifelong love of all things fantasy related. Then when I read the LOTR later on I was like "WHAT THE HELL, TOLKIEN RIPPED OFF WILLOW!?!? oh wait..."
I wonder how you do a willow without Mad Martagan though..
