Disney Finally Released Trailer for “Hexed”

Disney has finally released the trailer for “Hexed” after changing the main character from male to female.

The movie is colorful and the village is very close to the concept art shown previously, which is a win.

It does seem like Disney has gone for magical girl tropes like the outcast loner with powers, a magic bracelet, a girl gets in trouble for unleashing powers and causing chaos at school, etc.

The comparisons to Harry Potter and the Owl House are already starting to roll in.

Take a look!

I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect, but it looks interesting. More so than “Hoppers” or “Elio”.

Hailee Steinfeld will play the main character, Billie, along with Rashida Jones as her mother, Alice. Tracey Ullman will voice an enchanted quill pen, and Stephen Fry voices the magical journal named Elias Quire.

The basic synopsis reads,

“When Billie accidentally unleashes secret magical abilities, she’s hurtled out of suburbia and into a magical realm called Hexe, where she’s greeted by Ms. Quill (voiced by Tracey Ullman) and Elias Quire (voiced by Stephen Fry). As Billie’s spectacle-filled journey unfolds, she uncovers family mysteries that could change the magical world of witches forever.”

The film is directed by Fawn Veerasunthorn. She had some thoughts to share about the film’s plot as well,

 “A wonderfully strange phenomenon is happening all around Billie, something she can’t explain. She’s someone who has felt miscast in her own life, and it takes leaving her normal world behind and entering a hidden world of wild, unhinged magic to begin to understand herself.”

Jason Hand, another director on the film added, 

“Hexe is a place where Billie begins to feel seen for the first time in her life. She embarks on a journey of self-discovery that reveals a powerful connection to magic, and in the process uncovers long-held secrets about her family.”

“Hexed” will be released on November 25, 2026.
