Willow returns home to a hero's welcome and performs a true magic trick, much to the delight of the High Aldwin, before being happily reunited with his family. George Lucas conceived the idea for the film (originally titled "Munchkins") in 1972. Similar in intent to "Star Wars", he created "a number of well-known mythological situations for a young audience". During the production of "Return of the Jedi" in 1982, Lucas approached Warwick Davis, who was portraying Wicket the Ewok, about playing Willow Ufgood.
