Have you watched the first two episodes of Willow on Disney+ yet? If you haven’t, you should because the series is a delightful fantasy adventure featuring a stellar main ensemble brimming with chemistry. If you’ve already seen “The Gales” and “The High Aldwin,” however, I’m willing to bet you’re eager to learn more about Willow’s Ruby Cruz who plays Queen Sorsha’s (Joanne Whalley) daughter, Kit.The show picks up many years after the events of the 1988 film, far enough in the future that baby Elora Danan is now grown. Even though Warwick Davis’ Willow and Val Kilmer’s Madmartigan were able to save baby Elora from the forces of darkness back then, Willow still has a vision that ancient evil will rise and destroy the future empress, so they decide it’s best to hide Elora’s true identity — even from herself.Meanwhile, Kit comes face-to-face with an emerging evil when Tir Asleen is attacked and her brother, Airk (Dempsey Bryk), is taken. Desperate to find him, she opts to step up and venture beyond the safety of her home, a quest that sees her teaming with an unlikely group of characters including Willow himself.With the first two episodes of Willow the series now available to stream on Disney+, Cruz joined me for an episode of Collider Ladies Night Pre-Party to discuss how she went from frequent ArcLight Cinemas patron to becoming an on-screen star herself.
