As unveiled at last year's D23 event, Disney Feature Animation has original fantasy film Wish in the works, featuring the voices of Ariana DeBose and current studio lucky charm Alan Tudyk. Chris Pine, no stranger to the fantasy realm himself with the incoming Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves is now joining them.
Wish, according to the official blurb, is an all-new story is set in the magical kingdom of Rosas, where Asha (DeBose), an optimist with a sharp wit and a deep caring for her community, turns to the sky in a moment of need, and makes a wish. Asha’s plea is answered by a cosmic force, a little ball of boundless energy, Star. Together, they will face the most formidable of foes 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…
Tudyk is playing Asha's pajama-clad goat sidekick Valentino, but Pine's role is unknown for now. With Chris Buck and Fawn Veerasunthorn directing from a script by Buck and Jennifer Lee, Wish will be a musical featuring songs from Julia Michaels. The movie is set for a 24 November release this year.
