Descendants Cast Returns for Animated Royal Wedding Special — Watch Teaser
Disney Channel is cordially inviting Descendants fans to the wedding of the century this summer.
The original stars of the musical franchise are reuniting for Descendants: The Royal Wedding, an animated special that takes viewers back to Auradon for the long-awaited nuptials of Mal (Dove Cameron) and Prince Ben (Mitchell Hope), who became engaged in 2019’s Descendants 3.
In addition to Cameron and Hope, the special also welcomes back Sofia Carson as Evie, Booboo Stewart as Jay, Mitchell Hope as Ben, Sarah Jeffery as Audrey, Melanie Paxson as Fairy Godmother, China Anne McClain as Uma, Jedidiah Goodacre as Chad, Anna Cathcart as Dizzy, Dan Payne as Beast, Bobby Moynihan as Dude the Dog and Cheyenne Jackson as Hades.
Disney Channel has also confirmed: “The absence of the character Carlos, played by the late Cameron Boyce, will be acknowledged in the storyline and Boyce’s memory will be honored in the telecast.” Boyce, 20, died in July 2019, just one month before the final movie premiered.
The first Descendants movie — which introduced the children of classic Disney villains like Maleficent, Jafar, Cruella de Vil and the Evil Queen — premiered in 2015, kicking off a franchise that would grow to include two more movies, an animated spinoff and a series of books, among other media.
And it sounds like there could be more on the way. Gary Marsh, president and chief creative officer of Disney Branded Television, said in a statement, “Descendants introduced a fantasy world of stories and characters, anchored in Disney mythology. … It had the benefit of immensely talented stars, who we now welcome back for this animated Royal Wedding special that will bridge the audience to what we hope will be a new chapter of compelling Descendants stories and characters yet to come.”
Watch the first teaser for Descendants: The Royal Wedding below, then drop a comment with your thoughts.
I wonder if they will say that Carlos died, or if they say hes on a trip with Gil or Jane or something.
Will it be on the disney channel or will it be disney plus?
I certainly hope it will be on Disney+, considering how Disney Channel is no longer even around in my part of the world.
Wish they would make it a live version I think it still would have made an amazing last movie it would rap everything up, you could always remember carlos and have it in the movie that Carlos and Jane were traveling the world.
Wait, how old are they? Are they getting married at, like, 15?
They were 18 in the final movie that’s reasonable age in Disney continuity to get married at the minimum. Although there could be an mini time in this special meaning they won’t be 18 here.
I’m not actually sure but I figured they were probably playing 16 in the first movie, 17 in the second, and 18 in the third.
According to the wiki mal was 16 in the first 2 and 17 in the 3rd one
A LOVE
what about Harry Hook?
Dove cameron and him were bf and gf, and im assumung they dont want to make it harder on her.
This is animated. It’s not like all the actors will be voicing their parts at the same time in the same room. If she’s a true professional she wouldn’t let her past relationship effect the story.
I don’t see him attending Mal and Ben’s wedding since he doesn’t strike me a wedding goer.
I can’t wait for this latest movie as I’m a big fan of descendants and I currently own the last 3 movies and hope to continue to see more as the story line is good and I hope to see more on chad and Audrey
I hope we get more descendants stories after this royal wedding special. perhaps seeing Mal’s brother Hadie show up in the special and perhaps learn the identity of Hadie’s mom aka Hades former lover.i think Hadie’s mom could be Snow White, Aurora or better yet, Elsa!
This is great, but we would rather see the live version.
maybe this is better and also we could get some live action descendants next generation stuff or spin-offs!
Yea but that would include getting children on tv and perantal permission
Just so you guys are aware the movies did not kick off the books, the books are what the movies are based on. Might want to fact check that next time before publishing.
Does anyone know if this is going to be traditionally animated or computer animated like Wicked World?
Just seen the trailer on YouTube. Animation is very old fashioned. Would be so much better with the real characters or better animated.
I think Hades is gonna crash it you cause even tho he’s mals father he was locked up. Also I saw after and I don’t know but ya.
well, hes not locked up anymore after the end of the 3rd movie and maybe he shows up at the wedding with Elsa or Snow White as his date that will get people talking!
They should do an animated series for Descendants sometime set after the trilogy finishes up.
A good opportunity it would be if Lonnie were able to appear in this animated special, of which would lead to us finding out how her happily ever after ends up turning out after she of all characters ended up not being in Descendants 3 to the point where they made it look as though she never even existed.
Me encanto porque yo tengo Netflix y siempre veo desendientes
Not loving the idea of an animation. But if this is the only way to have the wedding…
I cant wate
Will you be doing the royal descendants wedding with in person characters.
I HAVE ALL THREE DESCENDANTS MOVIES AND ALSO ALL THREE SOUNDTRACKS THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME GREAT TO WATCH WITH FRIENDS…
I love these movies but. I’m not real thrilled about it being animated.
One of my favorite💙 Disney movie🎥 is Descendants 3 (RIP🕊 Cameron Boyce, I miss💕+ 💙 you forever + always! You are my favorite💙 character from the Desendants franchise! You could never be replaced by anyone else! You truly were one of a kind! Sometimes I still cry when I watch Descendants 3 because it’s just hard to believe you’re gone! I’m such a humongous fan😍 + I will always carry you with me in my heart💙!)
I am excited to watch the big wedding but not as excited since it’s not an official movie… I was hoping Mal’s mom returned as herself and tried to interfere with the wedding and Uma teamed
Up with Mal and Audrey to stop the evil queen. Something along those lines would’ve been amazing. I’m still excited to watch it with my kids. You all do such a great job. Thank you all for these amazing films.
I love this story line and making the royle wedding animated is a huge disservice to the story and the caracters we all have come to love
ok.
hi mal.if i see you in real life what will you look like?
I wonder who will be Carlos if or when they make a Descendants 4.
