Disney’s ‘Encanto’ is Filled with Magic, Music, and Adorable Beasts – New Trailer
This magical tale set in Latin America includes new music from Lin-Manuel Miranda and gorgeous animation.
Disney/Pixar has been celebrating diverse cultures with their animated movies in recent years – Moana, Raya and the Last Dragon, Coco, Luca, Soul. Encanto continues that trend. It’s about a family filled with folks with amazing powers that live in a hidden city in the mountains of Colombia. Meet the Madrigals…

Disney has very much taken advantage of ownership of Pixar over the years. They’ve developed a lush, colorful style that works perfectly for the rainforest and mountains of Colombia where this story of the magical Madrigal family is set; and for all of the creatures that live there. It is beautiful. And it’s got a great beat.

The new trailer reveals the danger facing the Madrigals – the magic that’s been woven into their lives for years is disappearing, and there’s only one person who can save it.
Walt Disney Animation Studios’ upcoming feature film “Encanto” tells the tale of the Madrigals, an extraordinary family who live in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto. Each child has been blessed with a magic gift unique to them—each child except Mirabel. But when the family’s home is threatened, Mirabel may be their only hope.
The voice cast includes Stephanie Beatriz (Brooklyn 99, The Lego Movie) as Mirabel, John Leguizamo, Diane Guerrero, Wilmer Valderrama, Angie Cepeda, Rhenzy Feliz, Carolina Gaitan, and María Cecilia Botero. The directing team also had a hand in Moana, Zootopia, and Raya the Last Dragon; and new music from Lin-Manuel Miranda.
Encanto arrives in theaters this November 24th.
