More details on Willow Smith’s upcoming project

A few weeks before celebrating her twenty-fifth birthday, Willow Smith signed on to feature in N LITE’s slate of horror and thriller films, Webe: Spirit Detective. The animation was created by Terry, who also co-wrote it with Bram Stoker and Eden Royce.

In an interview, Willow revealed how important filming the animation is to her.

“To me, Webe is more than an anime, it is a story about reconnecting with mystical ancestry and the power in discovering your roots and your tribe,” Willow said. “It is the type of film that I want to be a part of, and I’m excited to be doing this with N LITE.”

Terry also acknowledged Willow’s role in the film.

“We are honored to collaborate with Jaden and Willow,” Terry said.

He described Willow Smith as a pillar of her generation.

“They are pillars of this generation and talented storytellers at the zeitgeist of culture, art, fashion, music, and cinema. I can’t wait for the world to see what we have in store.”
