On November 22, 2024, Netflix welcomes a new animated feature: Ellian and the Spell, an adventure film directed by Vicky Jenson, best known for her work on Shrek. This fantasy feature blends magic and music, supported by an impressive voice cast featuring Rachel Zegler, who lends her voice to the character of Ellian, and stars such as Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem. Produced by Skydance Animation under the creative direction of John Lasseter, this film promises to enchant young and old alike with its fairytale universe and songs by Alan Menken, the legendary composer of Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, accompanied by lyrics by Glenn Slater(Rapunzel).
In the enchanted kingdom of Lumbria, chaos ensues when King Solon and Queen Ellsmere are struck by a powerful spell that turns them into monsters. Their daughter, Princess Ellian, a young heroine as courageous as she is determined, decides to set off on an adventure to break the curse. Accompanied by two mysterious oracles, Luno and Sunny, played by Nathan Lane and Tituss Burgess respectively, she must confront dangerous magical forces and face up to her destiny. This animated film combines action, magic and musical comedy, offering an immersive visual and auditory experience, with original songs that punctuate Ellian's journey.
Ellian et le Sortilège is aimed primarily at families, animated film fans and fans of fairytale stories. With its blend of music, adventure and fantasy, the film should appeal to fans of classics such as Rapunzel and The Snow Queen. What particularly sets this project apart is the combination of major talents behind the camera, notably the presence of Alan Menken and Glenn Slater, guaranteeing captivating music. What's more, the film promises a rich and colorful universe, in line with Skydance's great animated productions. If you enjoyed Shrek, Rapunzel or Vaiana, Ellian et le Sortilège could well become one of your new favorites.
