Disenchanted, the long-awaited, much-anticipated Enchanted sequel, dropped its first trailer during D23 Expo 2022. The first teaser trailer reveals Giselle (Amy Adams) has discovered life isn’t one big fairy tale and a happily ever after ending isn’t guaranteed. The two-minute teaser ends with a warning that nothing stays enchanted forever.
Patrick Dempsey reprises his role as Robert Philip, Idina Menzel returns as Nancy, and James Marsden’s back as Prince Edward. The sequel also stars Maya Rudolph as Malvina Monroe, Yvette Nicole Brown as Rosaleen, Jayma Mays as Ruby, and Gabriella Baldacchino as Morgan Philip.
Kevin Lima directed 2007’s Enchanted and Adam Shankman (Hairspray) is at the helm of the musical comedy’s sequel. Brigitte Hales wrote the screenplay and Amy Adams, Barry Josephson, and Barry Sonnenfeld produced. Shankman, Jo Burn, and Sunil Perkash executive produced.
Enchanted‘s Oscar-nominated songwriting duo Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz returned to write new songs for the sequel.
Disenchanted is skipping a theatrical release and will premiere on Disney+ on November 24, 2022.
Disney+ released the following synopsis of the sequel:
“It has been 15 years since Giselle (Adams) and Robert (Dempsey) wed, but Giselle has grown disillusioned with life in the city, so they move their growing family to the sleepy suburban community of Monroeville in search of a more fairy tale life. Unfortunately, it isn’t the quick fix she had hoped for. Suburbia has a whole new set of rules and a local queen bee, Malvina Monroe (Rudolph), who makes Giselle feel more out of place than ever.
Frustrated that her happily ever after hasn’t been so easy to find, she turns to the magic of Andalasia for help, accidentally transforming the entire town into a real-life fairy tale and placing her family’s future happiness in jeopardy. Now, Giselle is in a race against time to reverse the spell and determine what happily ever after truly means to her and her family.”
