The Highly Anticipated Movie Starring Kylie Cantrall and Malia Baker Premieres July 12
(BURBANK, Calif. - April 2, 2024) Today, Disney+ released a new teaser and poster for "Descendants: The Rise of Red," the next installment in the mega-hit "Descendants" franchise that features the teenage progeny of iconic Disney heroes and villains. The music-driven Disney Original movie starts streaming Friday, July 12, exclusively on Disney+, followed by a special encore Friday, August 9, at 8:00 p.m. EDT/PDT on Disney Channel. The latest teaser introduces Kylie Cantrall as Red, princess of the hostile kingdom of Wonderland and Auradon's newest Villain Kid (aka VK), who is caught "red-handed" by Malia Baker, who plays Chloe, the daughter of Cinderella and King Charming.
"Descendants: The Rise of Red" follows Red, the rebellious daughter of the Queen of Hearts, and Chloe, Cinderella's perfectionist daughter. When the tyrannical Queen of Hearts incites a coup against Auradon, polar opposites Red and Chloe must join forces and travel back in time to undo the traumatic event that set Red's mother down her villainous path.
In addition to Cantrall and Baker, the film stars a new ensemble of VKs and legacy characters, including Brandy as Cinderella, Rita Ora as the Queen of Hearts, Dara Reneé as Uliana, Ruby Rose Turner as Bridget/Young Queen of Hearts, Morgan Dudley as Ella/Young Cinderella, Joshua Colley as Young Hook, Peder Lindell as Morgie, Grace Narducci as Fay/Young Fairy Godmother, Jeremy Swift as Principal Merlin, Paolo Montalban as King Charming, and Leonardo Nam as Maddox Hatter. China Anne McClain is back as fan-favorite Uma and the new principal at Auradon Prep. Melanie Paxson also reprises her role as Fairy Godmother.
True to the "Descendants" tradition of music-driven stories, this fourth installment features seven new original songs, two reprises and a cover of "So This Is Love" from the classic animated "Cinderella" film that will engage viewers and bring them along on the emotional journey with our bold new characters. The "Descendants: The Rise of Red Original Soundtrack" is set for release on July 12 from Walt Disney Records.
