Dive into Wish's Whimsical Plot

Wish supposedly revolves around a fantastical wishing star but focuses on the inspiring journey of a brave young girl named Asha. Here's Disney's official summary:

"Wish introduces Asha, a spirited dreamer, who casts a powerful wish that attracts a celestial force—a lively speck of cosmic energy called Star. Together, they set off to prove that when a courageous human's will intertwines with the universe's magic, extraordinary events unfold."

The script for Wish was penned by frequent collaborators, Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, while original songs were dreamed up by Julia Michaels and Benjamin Rice.

Meet the Talented Voice Cast of Wish

At the moment, only three voices have been confirmed for Wish, but they're quite formidable names!

The captivating Ariana DeBose voices Asha. You might recognize her Oscar-winning role in West Side Story, as well as performances in Schmigadoon, Westworld, The Prom, and even the original Broadway cast of Hamilton. Besides Wish, DeBose is set to shine in the 2023 movies Argylle and Kraven the Hunter.

Chris Pine lends his voice to the regal King Magnifico, the ruler of Rosas, a mystical land where wishes truly come true. Fresh off the success of the hit movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, Chris Pine is well-known for roles like Wonder Woman, Star Trek, Hell or High Water and the musical Into the Woods (so rest assured that if musical scenes are on the agenda, he's got the pipes!).

rounds out the vocal cast for Wish with seasoned Disney player, Alan Tudyk. Tudyk has lent his voice to beloved Disney characters in films like Encanto, Raya and the Last Dragon, Frozen, Wreck-It Ralph and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
