Willow flips the script on a long-held tradition in fantasy stories.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Episodes 1 and 2 of Willow.Disney has a long and storied history of featuring arranged marriages within its vast catalog of films in the fantasy genre. We all know the classics like 1959's Sleeping Beauty where Philip and Aurora were betrothed to wed from the day she was born. Aladdin and the Disney Pixar movie, Brave relied on the familiar formula as well.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Kit and Jade Continue a Trend of Arranged Marriages In Willow, it is established right out of the gate that Princess Kit's marriage to Prince Graydon Hastor has been arranged by her mother, Queen Sorsha . The only problem with that is the tomboyish Kit pines for the attention of another. Her true love is Jade , a novice knight designated to protect the princess and the realm from foreign invaders.
In both of those characters' cases, arranged marriage is forced upon the women in an effort to establish alliances, or to unite kingdoms and fortify the standing of their houses and families. The arranged marriages also forces young women and men into compromised positions. Sansa is left traumatized by her association with the Lannisters and then again with Ramsay, while Laenor is forced to remain closeted and can only escape marriage by faking his own death.
