Disney brought back the villain era for Wish.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Wish is the culmination of 100 years of Disney animation magic, with young heroine Asha making a wish upon a star. However, things don't go as expected when a star falls out of the sky to answer her impassioned call. Star, the name of the star, helps Asha in her quest to defeat the darkness in her home, the Kingdom of Rosas.
She keeps going until, and that is her wish, until she rights this wrong in the world. And I think so many young people, I can look at my kids and be inspired by them and that tenaciousness, which really gets things done, and that's what I love. And so we go to that, to what's around us, what we're seeing. And not always, even though, yes, this is a legacy film, but we also look to see what's happening today.
Well, that's actually what I wanted to ask about next, is Ariana. Because she's an incredible actress to bring so much energy to any role that she's in. Can you guys talk to me about the process of crafting the character with her? I'm a sucker for a good Disney villain, and King Magnifico looks incredible, and he seems incredible. How does he stand out from past villains while still celebrating what people love about the Disney villain? And why was Chris Pine, the right actor for the role? Because he's not really known for playing villains at all really.
Fawn Veerasunthorn: And Chris Pine brought so much charm and comedy to this character because we want to make a bad guy. We want to make people feel conflicted about do I hate him or do I love him? And that's the line that we are trying to walk beautifully the whole time. So Chris brought that sensibility of, I admire this person. He's a king, but wow, he's really bad. But also it's kind of interesting. So we gave him a juicy backstory.
Chris Buck: ... the look, the original artists and all that to see how they did it. The watercolor look. Sleeping Beauty-Chris Buck: Another big one, because that design style, our production design team, Mike Giaimo, I went to school with Mike Giaimo in Cal Arts, and he's always loved Sleeping Beauty. I've always known this about him. So you'll see that in his work quite a bit.
