Descendants: The Rise of Red

Matt Roush says...

And you thought Galinda and Elphaba were mismatched roomies in Wicked. Meet this whimsical fairy-tale franchise’s latest Villain Kid: Red (Kylie Cantrall), the offspring of the treacherous Queen of Hearts (Rita Ora) from unfriendly Wonderland, who’s come to wreak havoc at Auradon Prep, where she clashes with Chloe (Malia Baker), daughter of Cinderella (Brandy) and King Charming (Paolo Montalban). Though they couldn’t be more different, the frenemies team up to stop Wonderland’s attack on Auradon by time-traveling back to the Queen of Hearts’ past, where they hope to steer her away from her villainous future. China Anne McClain reprises her role as Uma, former Villain Kid turned Auradon’s headmaster. The soundtrack from the fourth Descendants film features seven new songs, two reprises and a new version of “So This Is Love” from the original 1950 Cinderella movie.
