"I mean, I would say I get five or six e-mails every day from people asking, "Is there going to be a Leprechaun 6?' It's probably the most asked question besides, 'Is there going to be a Willow II?'"
About this Quote
The subtext is affectionate exhaustion. Leprechaun and Willow sit at opposite ends of his cultural legacy: one a shamelessly schlocky horror franchise that became a cult punchline, the other a beloved fantasy artifact with genuine emotional stakes. Pairing them in the same breath collapses the hierarchy fans and critics like to maintain between “serious” work and “guilty pleasure.” Davis isn’t scolding the audience; he’s quietly reminding us that fandom doesn’t care about prestige. It cares about access, continuation, and the comforting fantasy that every story can be reopened.
Context matters here: Davis is one of those performers whose career is inseparable from franchise culture, where audiences form parasocial relationships not just with characters but with the idea of sequels themselves. The humor is also a sly commentary on the sequel-industrial complex: fans ask because the market has trained them to. Davis’ delivery turns that training into a punchline, while acknowledging the strange honor of being wanted back, even for the movies people “ironically” love.
