Everyone is special and in Disney’s Encanto everyone is exceptional! If you are the Madrigal family you’re even magical. Back in November Disney released their astonishing 60th feature film, and next month you can own it on Blu-ray™ and DVD.
The voice cast includes Stephanie Beatriz, John Leguizamo, María Cecilia Botero, Wilmer Valderrama, Adassa, Diane Guerrero, Mauro Castillo, Angie Cepeda, Jessica Darrow, Rhenzy Feliz and Carolina Gaitan.
Deep in the mountains of Colombia the enchanted house of Encanto stands, deep in the mountains of Colombia. Casa Madrigal is located in this mystical town and everyone in the family possess magical powers…except Mirabel (Beatriz). When the family home is threatened, Mirabel must go on a journey to save them despite having no special powers.

Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Encanto,” is the tale of an extraordinary family, the Madrigals, who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto. The all-new original film features the voice of Stephanie Beatriz as Mirabel, an ordinary 15-year-old who’s struggling to find her place in her family. “Mirabel is a really funny, loving character who also deeply yearns for something more,” says Beatriz. “She’s also not afraid to stand up for what she knows is right—something I love and relate to very much.”
