Howard said on MTV's "Happy Sad Confused" podcast that "serious discussions" are underway. He also confirmed that Jonathan Kasdan are in talks for the project, Variety reports.

"Willow" came out in 1988 and told the story of the titular character's mission to protect an infant from an evil queen (Jean Marsh) after a prophecy said the baby girl would bring about the monarch's downfall.
