So if Disney+ is resurrecting failed franchises more than 3 decades old and turning them into TV-series, does that mean I can expect a Condorman series in the near future? Set a generation after the events of 1988’s Willow, we are introduced to Princess Kit (Ruby Cruz) and Prince Airk (Dempsey Bryk), the spoiled children of Queen Sorsha (Joanne Whalley) and Madmartigan on the eve of Kit’s arranged wedding to Prince Graydon (Tony Revolori) when her brother is kidnapped by shadowy figures. Proving Willow’s (Warwick Davis) prophecy of a coming darkness true, the Queen sends out a party to rescue her son led by her daughter, Kit’s friend/lover Jade (Erin Kellyman), Graydon, and a thief (Amar Chadha-Patel) who is pardoned for guiding them on their journey.

- Title: The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special
- wiki: link
While more successful than The Star Wars Holiday Special, there’s not all that much to The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special other than a holiday message, reworking a character’s backstory to create a familial relationship where none existed before, and bringing the oft-mentioned Kevin Bacon into the MCU when the actor is kidnapped by Drax (Dave Bautista) and Mantis (Pom Klementieff) as a Christmas gift to Peter (Chris Pratt).
