Released in 2023 to mark Disney’s 100th anniversary, Wish is both a brand-new fairy tale and a loving tribute to the studio’s legacy of magic and music. Directed by Chris Buck and Fawn Veerasunthorn, the film follows Asha, a spirited young woman who makes a powerful wish upon a star — only to see it come true in the form of a glowing celestial companion.
Set in the kingdom of Rosas, ruled by the seemingly benevolent King Magnifico, Wish explores the power of hope, courage, and community in shaping destiny. Its hand-drawn-meets-digital watercolor style evokes Disney’s past classics while pushing visual storytelling forward.
With songs by Julia Michaels and a heartfelt message about believing in one’s dreams, Wish reminds audiences why Disney’s magic endures — it’s not the star that grants the wish, but the heart that makes it.
