Ariana DeBose to star in Disney movie animated musical Wish from Frozen makers

As part of the D23 Expo, Walt Disney Animation Studios announced their 2023 feature including Wish – a story inspired by the iconic wishing star from the Disney logo. West Side Story Oscar winner Ariana DeBose is on board to voice star the lead character in the feature.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Wish centers on Asha (DeBose), a 17-year-old who sees a darkness in her kingdom that no one else does, so in a moment of desperation, she makes a passioned plea to the stars. The answer to Asha’s wish is an actual star that falls from the sky to help on her journey.

Chris Buck will co-direct with Fawn Veerasunthorn. It is produced by Peter Del Vecho and Juan Pablo Reyes, and features songs by Julia Michaels. Jennifer Lee, who heads up Disney Animation, is co-scripting, with Peter Del Vecho & Juan Pablo Reyes producing. “The film means so much to all of us at the studio and has been an incredible collaboration across all the generations,” Lee said onstage.
