Really? Where did you learn that? If you don`t mind me for asking?

D82 wrote:The DisInsider has just posted these character descriptions. They say they're all singing roles and that they expect Disney to officially announce the film tomorrow during their Investor Day. Wasn't the protagonist called Mirabel? Now it seems her name is Mariana.
The main character of the film will be a 15 year old girl named Mariana who is described as a “lovable, funny, fallible, utterly human protagonist”. She uses her humor to cover up struggles with her self-worth. She is a true comedienne, akin to Lucille Ball. Mariana will also be the narrator of the film.

Juana is to be a supporting character in her mid-40s. She is a maternal presence in the film, a deep thinker, and a good listener. She is likely Mariana’s mother or mother-like figure.

Ines is a supporting character in her early 20s. She is the golden child of the family, with a beautiful singing voice. On the outside, she seems to have everything together, yet is deeply insecure. She is most likely Mariana’s sister.

Lydia is a supporting character in her early 20s. She is an athletic jock with a big voice and persona. She is funny, yet sincere and has a small amount of singing.

Fernando is a supporting character in his late 40s. He is handsome, funny and loud. He is the life of the party, loyal and kind, with an excellent singing voice.

Carlos is a 15-year old boy who is Mariana’s enemy. Like Mariana, he is hilariously funny and also a great singer. Has a habit of telling tall tales.

Lastly, there is Andrea who is the matriarch of the family. At 75 years old, she is strong and determined, sometimes to a fault. With a dry wit and a tough presence, she doesn’t let anybody get in her way.
Youtuber Grace Randolph also said earlier today that Disney will announce the movie tomorrow:
Disney Animation will officially announce their next feature tomorrow, Encanto, involving Lin-Manuel Miranda.

I like that there will be an older matriarch character !

I am happy Andrea is in the movie .

Thanks for sharing that info with us, Sotiris! I'm glad there'll be so many songs. And yes, those two characters from the descriptions must be her older sisters.

It`s remarkable to think that we`re only eight months away from Encanto`s release. And there`s been no pictures or concept art of any characters released yet. At least with Raya we had the concept art of Raya and Tuk Tuk. And yeah, forgive me for whining, but I just wanted to rant :P

I think they will start releasing some info following Raya's release. I'll bet if that film hadn't been delayed to this year 'cause Covid we would have long had more tidbits from the upcoming Encanto.

:P Well, you make me angry when I keep clicking to enter this thread after noticing that orange-coloured, wiggly and seductive rectangle on the left calling out to me: "Juuuuuuules! Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuules! There a neeeeeeeeeew post in the Encanto thread. It must be news!!!! You must find out what it is now or you will never be happy!!!!"

So I click like my life depends on it; I scroll down frantically - my breath and heartbeat slowly accelerating, and ...






*GROOOOOAAAAN* - it's just DisneyFan97 asking about the voice cast, again. :lol:

Seriously, if it weren't for Covid-19 travel restrictions, I'd have gotten on the first flight to Sweden and hunted you down - Liam-Neeson-Taken-style - for revenge. :twisted:

Be afraid.

Be very afraid ...


























I'm just messing with you, you Swedish rascal. :milkbuds:


























Or am I? :mischief:

According to Skyler Shurer from the DisInsider, new character names have been trademarked:
Disney recently trademarked Encanto characters Luisa Madrigal, Antonio Madrigal, and Isabela Madrigal.

Those three have to be Mirabel's siblings. Disney wouldn't bother trademarking the parents' or extended family members' names. Which means the names got changed again since the last character descriptions we got. It's getting confusing. Is Antonio/Camilo/Carlos and Isabela/Dolores/Ines or are they different people? I think it's safe to say Louisa is Lydia, Mirabel's athletic sister.

Disney Consumer Products is already hinting at Mirabel joining the Disney Princess franchise despite her not being a princess in the film. This will make her the second character in the line-up after Mulan who isn't royalty.

If she's a child though, I don't expect her to be a part of the Disney princess line forever. Just like Alice, Lilo, Wendy, and Vanellope were temporary. They may just use the DP line to move merchandise for the movie while it's new and then dump her once the movie's a few years old.

She's not going to be a child. Based on the leaked character descriptions, she's going to be either 15 or 16.

My oh my. I thought Disney said they weren`t going to include more Princesses in their lineup during Moana`s release. Obviously they`ve changed their policy now :P
