Wish is an upcoming American computer-animated musical film by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Inspired by Disney's 100th anniversary, it is directed by Chris Buck and Fawn Veerasunthorn and is is scheduled to be released in the United States on November 22, 2023.

Synopsis
Wish asks the question: “How did the wishing star, which so many Disney characters wished upon, came to be?” Set in the magical kingdom of Rosas, the story introduces Asha (voice of Ariana DeBose), an optimist with a sharp wit who deeply cares about her community. When Asha turns to the sky in a moment of need and makes a wish, her plea is answered by a cosmic force—a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, they face the most formidable of foes to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen.

Production and casting
On September 9, 2022, during the D23 Expo, the film was announced with Chris Buck and Fawn Veerasunthorn serving as directors, and Peter Del Vecho and Juan Pablo Reyes as producers. The film's art style combines Disney's original watercolor animation with its modern-day CGI. On the same day, Ariana DeBose and Alan Tudyk were announced to be cast as Asha and Valentino, respectively. In April 2023, Chris Pine was announced to voice King Magnifico. In September, Angelique Cabral was cast as Queen Amaya, King Magnifico's wife, and the rest of the cast was revealed in a full trailer later that month.
