First Details For Disney's HEXED Announced

First Details Emerge for Disney's Animated Fantasy 'Hexed' Starring Hailee Steinfeld

Get ready to trade high school suburbia for a spellbinding world of magic! Walt Disney Animation Studios is gearing up for its massive fall original release, and the buzz for the brand-new fantasy adventure Hexed is officially heating up.

What is 'Hexed' About?

Marking Disney's 65th animated feature, the story is a coming-of-age saga with a wicked twist. The film follows Billie Doe, an impulsive, unconventional teenage girl who rocks combat boots and has always felt like a total outcast. After accidentally causing magical chaos and getting expelled from yet another high school, Billie discovers that she isn't just a weird teenager—she is actually a witch.

Her newfound abilities pull her into Hexe, a wild and unpredictable magical realm where magic flows freely. However, Hexe isn't just fun and games. Billie must team up with her cautious mother, Alice, to uncover long-buried family mysteries and navigate a dangerous world that could change the witching realm forever.

A Magical Voice Cast:

Disney has assembled a genuinely spellbinding ensemble to bring this new world to life:

- Hailee Steinfeld: The Spider-Verse and Hawkeye star takes the lead as the feisty, misunderstood teenage witch, Billie Doe.

- Rashida Jones: She voices Alice, Billie's highly cautious and protective mother.

- Jodie Foster: In a massive casting coup, the legendary Oscar winner is making her Disney Animation voice-acting debut as the villainous witch, Queen Celeste.

- Walton Goggins: He brings his signature energy to the role of Beef Roger Crumbchuck, a wise-cracking, three-eyed, blue cat who serves as Billie's guide.

- The Magical Objects: The cast is rounded out by comedic legends Tracey Ullman as Ms. Quill (an enchanted feather pen) and Stephen Fry as Elias Quire (a magical journal).

Behind the Scenes & Release Details:

The magical adventure is being co-directed by Fawn Veerasunthorn (Wish) and Jason Hand (Moana 2).

Hexed is officially slated to cast its spell exclusively in theaters on November 25, 2026, perfectly timed to dominate the massive Thanksgiving holiday weekend.
