If you ask "Willow" actors Ruby Cruz and Erin Kellyman to name one song that captures the relationship between their characters, they will name Paramore's "The Only Exception." One might even start singing it for you.
"It's so weirdly accurate," said Kellyman, who plays aspiring knight Jade Claymore in Lucasfilm's fantasy adventure series, before explaining what lyrics in which verse correlate to which character during a recent video call.
"We would share songs with each other throughout the whole filming of 'Willow,' " added Cruz, who portrays the rebellious royal Kit Tanthalos and was the first to notice the connection between their characters and their chosen anthem. "We'd find things [that conveyed], like, 'This is how Kit is feeling right now for Jade and she wishes she could tell her this but she can't.'"
