PRODUCER EXCLUSIVE
Amy ’s Choice
Barry Josephson on Disney’s belated sequel to 2007’s Enchanted
→ RELEASED IN 2007, ENCHANTED was both love letter to and spoof of the classic Disney fairy tale, in which Amy Adams’s (animated) soon-to-be Princess Giselle is catapulted into the real world by the evil Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon). With an impressive 93% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a box office take of $340.5 million, it’s not surprising that talk soon started of a sequel. It’s only now, 15 years later, however, that it’s materialising in the shape of Disenchanted. This is a Disney+ exclusive that sees the return of Adams, as well as James Marsden as Prince (now King) Edward and Patrick Dempsey as Giselle’s real-world husband, Robert.
