More Cast Revealed For Disney’s “Hidden Heroes: A Descendants Story”
Recently, Disney released details on a brand-new instalment in the “Descendants” movie called “Hidden Heroes: A Descendants Story”, which will be coming to the Disney Channel and Disney+.
Hidden in the centre of each fairy tale is a portal to a secret training facility where the descendants of legendary sidekicks are challenged to join the elite ranks of partners to heroes. When a villainous duo comes to Sidekick Academy, a group of fresh recruits must band together — without heroes, without parents — using only their new skills to save the fairytale realm before it’s too late.
The new film will star Dior Goodjohn, Momona Tamada, Jacob Rodriguez, Eva Fossaceca Smedley and Harry Jones, along with Rhys Dawkins, Connor Wong and Kyra Wong.
Disney has announced some more cast details on the film, which will now include award-winning actor and singer Darren Criss as Jiminy Cricket from “Pinocchio,” actress and comedian Sherry Cola as Yzma from “The Emperor’s New Groove,” Tony Award-winner James Monroe Iglehart as Genie from “Aladdin,” Hugo Ateo as Kronk from “The Emperor’s New Groove,” Sean Yves Lessard as Lumiere from “Beauty and the Beast” and Dan Bakkedahl as Yen Sid from “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” in “Fantasia.”
Directed by Jude Weng (“Only Murders in the Building,” “Finding ‘Ohana”), the script was written by Tamara Chestna, Eydie Faye and Emma Fletcher. Mark Ordesky (“ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires”) and Jane Fleming (“ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires”) are executive producers, alongside Gary Marsh and Chestna, who executive produced “Descendants: Wicked Wonderland.” Louise Hradsky and Jeffrey Mortensen are the choreographers. The movie is produced by Disney Kids & Family.
The previous “Descendants” films and “The Descendants/ZOMBIES Worlds Collide: Concert Special” are available to stream on Disney+ and can be found in the “Descendants” Collection within the app.
