Disney has announced details on the next instalment in the  “Descendants” franchise, which is going to be the fifth film in the franchise. It will be called  “Descendants: Wicked Wonderland.”

The upcoming movie is going to see Brandy and Rita Ora reprise their roles of Cinderella and the Queen of Hearts, respectively.  Also returning are Paolo Montalban as King Charming and Melanie Paxson as Fairy Godmother, making her the only actor to appear in all five “Descendants” films. 

With these four iconic stars joining the line-up, casting for “Descendants: Wicked Wonderland” is now complete! The full cast includes:

• Kylie Cantrall as the Queen of Hearts’ daughter Red
• Malia Baker as Cinderella’s daughter Chloe
• Liamani Segura as Red’s sister Pink
• Brendon Tremblay as Maddox Hatter’s son Max
• Alexandro Byrd as Luisa Madrigal’s son Luis

• Leonardo Nam as the Mad Hatter’s son Maddox

• Rita Ora as the Queen of Hearts

“Descendants: Wicked Wonderland” explores what “happily ever after” really means for Red (Cantrall) and Chloe (Baker) following their time-traveling adventures in the 2024 hit film “Descendants: The Rise of Red.” Set primarily in present-day Wonderland with a host of new and familiar characters, this sequel delves into the warning at the end of the previous movie: There are consequences when you alter the fabric of time.

Kimmy Gatewood (“Muppets Mayhem”) directs with a script by co-executive producer Tamara Chestna (“Sneakerella”) and Dan Frey and Ru Sommer (“Descendants: The Rise of Red”). Returning to the franchise are executive producers Suzanne Todd and Gary Marsh. Gatewood also serves as co-producer. Emmy^Ⓡ Award-winning choreographer Emilio Dosal (“Wicked,” “Sneakerella”) will bring the brand-new music-and-dance sequences to life, which have become a beloved hallmark of the “Descendants” franchise.

The previous four films in the franchise, along with the animated spinoff series “Descendants: Wicked World,” the animated special “Descendants: The Royal Wedding” and three “Descendants”-inspired music videos are also available to stream on Disney+.

“Descendants: Wicked Wonderland” is currently in production and is set to be released in 2026 on Disney Channel and Disney+.
