“With a nod to Walt Disney’s musical legacy as the company marks 100 years, Walt Disney Animation Studios Wish welcomes audiences to the magical kingdom of Rosas, where Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic forceโ€”a little ball of boundless energy called Star,” Disney’s official synopsis for the film reads. “Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foeโ€”the ruler of Rosas, King Magnificoโ€”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.”ย
