Walt Disney Animation Studios has released the first trailer and poster for “Wish,” their new animated musical-comedy film which opens exclusively in theaters for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Asha (Ariana DeBose) is a sharp-witted 17-year-old idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force – a celestial ball of boundless energy called Star.
Together, Asha, her pet goat Valentino (Alan Tudyk) and Star confront a most formidable foe – the ruler of the fantastical land of Rosas, King Magnifico (Chris Pine) – 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.
The song “This Wish,” performed by DeBose, can be heard in the clip – one of several new songs written by Julia Michaels and Benjamin Rice for the film.
Chris Buck (“Frozen”) directs the film alongside Fawn Veerasunthorn (“Raya and the Last Dragon”) with the project inspired by many past films from Disney Animation’s 100 years. Lee and Allison Moore (“Night Sky”) pen the project.
‘Wish” opens only in cinemas on November 22nd.
