Disney's Wish | Official Teaser Trailer

Check out the new trailer, plus a poster and new image for Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Wish,” which opens exclusively in theaters on Nov. 22. The trailer introduces 17-year-old Asha, the powerful King Magnifico, Asha’s pet goat Valentino, and Star, a celestial ball of boundless energy that Asha’s wish calls down from the sky. It also features a snippet of the song “This Wish,” performed by Ariana DeBose; it’s one of several new songs written by Julia Michaels and Benjamin Rice for the film.

The all-new musical-comedy welcomes audiences to Rosas, a fantastical land located off the Iberian Peninsula. “Our heroine, Asha, lives in Rosas, known as the kingdom of wishes,” said director Chris Buck, who helms the film with Fawn Veerasunthorn. “People come from everywhere to give their wishes to a magical king who promises to grant their deepest desires—someday. Only he can decide which wishes will come true and when.”

Added Veerasunthorn, “We have been inspired by so many iconic films over Disney Animation’s 100 years, especially stories where we explore the power of someone with a wish, combined with the conviction to make that wish come true. Being able to honor that legacy with this incredible story and these amazing characters has been a joy for our entire team.”

ABOUT THE MOVIE
In “Wish,” Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force—a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foe—the ruler of Rosas, King Magnifico—to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen. Featuring the voices of Academy Award®-winning actor Ariana DeBose as Asha, Chris Pine as Magnifico, and Alan Tudyk as Asha’s favorite goat, Valentino, the film is helmed by Oscar®-winning director Chris Buck (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) and Fawn Veerasunthorn (“Raya and the Last Dragon”), produced by Peter Del Vecho (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) and co-produced by Juan Pablo Reyes (“Encanto”). Jennifer Lee (“Frozen,” “Frozen 2”) executive produces—Lee and Allison Moore (“Night Sky,” “Manhunt”) are writers on the project. With original songs by Grammy®-nominated singer/songwriter Julia Michaels and Grammy-winning producer/songwriter/musician Benjamin Rice, plus score by composer Dave Metzger, “Wish” opens only in theaters on Nov. 22, 2023.

The visuals look unique and nice but I’ll be way more likely to buy tickets to future Disney movies if they start making 2D animated films again.

[IMaacho]

Remember when we had hope for this movie?

[monkeydtony]

This was not a “century in the making” film
This was a “oh crap when was that script supposed to be done?” Film

[xylopiano]

If King Magnifico gets a villain song, I will probably cry tears of joy. It's so great to see Disney revisiting their roots!

[jsaking]

This is what we've been waiting for. An original story, an actual villain, 2D/3D animation, stylization, centered around wishing and dreaming, and of course the talking animal sidekick. Feels like a return to classic Disney and I'm here for it!

[McKaylaGamez]

Why is Disney not pushing this? I literally just found out about this 4 MONTHS after the trailer came out. This looks amazing and we are finally getting an actual villain!

[M_IAWIA]

I love this artstyle. They are finally going back to a less realistic style, but that gives them so many more amazing ways to express themselves. It looks absolutely stunning!

[uznaimat]

This is the most Disney-esque movie that ever Disneyed. And I mean that as a good thing.

It's genuinely refreshing to see the studio going back to its roots. Classic protagonists, classic villains, talking animal sidekicks, musicals, magic, dreams, wishes. This has all the makings of an effing masterpiece! And I am ready for it. Bring it on!

[TakeTheWorld]

I cannot begin express how excited I am to see this as a lifelong Disney fan. The blend of 2D and 3D animation and watercolor artstyle already make this their best looking movie in years along with a straightforward villain and godly music make me really believe Wish will be one of the greatest Disney movies of all time.

[JFtheLOLZOR]

man, this was a good teaser, it held a lot of promise and it overall looked like it was doing everything so right

*_what the shit happened_*

[sptnixkaii]

i wish disney would start marketing asha as a disney princess because she deserves to be one

[tonyilias]

The blend of 2D and 3D animation makes me so happy. 2D and hand-drawn just has a certain charm and magical feeling to it that can't be replicated in 3D. This feels new and fresh but at the same time familiar since it tells me that Disney is trying to return to its roots, and I can't be more excited!

[maureencali]

It looks like a storybook visually! The ones we used to read as children (mix of 2D and 3D). I think that’s one of its charms: evoking nostalgia ONCE MORE.

[Telmarine]

It’s interesting how it sounds like the trailer is being narrated, only to find out that the antagonist is actually talking to the viewer (or the protagonist). It’s an excellent redirect. I can’t wait to watch this film. Disney is at their best when making fairy tales.

[itsme-hi-imtheproblemitsme]

The deleted scenes are so good why did they have to cut them 😢

[cheyennethedaeodon]

Spread the news!

This can be the window for us to allow Disney to go back to its classic roots, 2d animation, classic villains, talking animal sidekicks and that classic magic.
We need to make this film known if we want Disney to make more films like this!

[captain_commenter]

Ain’t no way, Disney actually making something original and remotely similar to what we loved back in the “old days”?! Am I dreaming? Is this heaven?!

[petersmith]

Me after seeing this movie- I renounce my Wish

[davidmichael]

The song in this is fucking absolutely beautiful and I need it NOW!

[mr.burger]

I love that Disney is finally stepping into stylized animation
