What Else Do We Know?
We don’t know much about the plot, but we do know it will be heavily inspired by Alice in Wonderland. Red and Chloe are set to travel back in time using the White Rabbit’s pocketwatch to prevent a catastrophic event in Auradon. It won’t be easy… Uma has some unfinished business!
Disney
Kenny Ortega will be replaced by Jennifer Phang (The Flight Attendant, Foundation) as director of Descendants 4. Dan Frey and Russell Sommer (“Magic: The Gathering”) will write the script.
All three live-action movies, along with a spin-off series, “Descendants: Wicked World,” an animated special, “Descendants 2: The Royal Wedding,” and the live-action “Under the Sea: A Descendants Short Story” are available to stream on Disney+.
