1 WISH UPON A STAR
The House of Mouse, Walt Disney Studios, celebrates its 100th anniversary with Wish, a musical adventure set in the magical Kingdom of Rosas.
Its heroine is 17-year-old Asha (voiced by Oscar-winner Ariana DeBose), who senses an evil presence in the kingdom’s ruler, King Magnifico (voiced by Chris Pine).
When Asha asks for help from above a falling star named Star appears to help her save the kingdom with its ability to grant wishes.
ODE TO DISNEY
The Wish filmmakers wanted to bring back the classic Disney fairytale idea of wishing and making dreams come true.
“This fantasy of wishing was so prominent in so many Disney movies, and it’s synonymous with Disney in a way,” said producer Juan Pablo Reyes
