On April 1, 2006, as part of an April Fools' Day joke on StarWars.com, several entries were added to the Databank on characters and locations from the film Willow and its sequel novels, The Shadow War Chronicles. One of these entries identified the character Weazel, played by Warwick Davis in Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, as Willow Ufgood, a.k.a. Thorn Drumheller, a character played by Davis in Willow. At 2005's Celebration III, Warwick Davis explained that people often assume that his Weasel character in The Phantom Menace is Willow.
