Descendants: The Rise of Red is a 2024 American musical teen fantasy comedy film directed by Jennifer Phang from a screenplay by Dan Frey and Ru Sommer. Produced by Disney Channel, the film is the fourth in the Descendants franchise, being a spin-off of the previous three films and a follow-up from Descendants: The Royal Wedding.[1] The film was released on July 12, 2024 on Disney+, and made its debut on Disney Channel on August 9, 2024.[2]
Kylie Cantrall and Malia Baker star as Red (daughter of Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland) and Chloe Charming (daughter of Cinderella and Prince Charming from Cinderella), respectively.[3] China Anne McClain and Melanie Paxton reprise their roles of Uma and Fairy Godmother, respectively, from previous Descendants films. Cinderella and King Charming are played by Brandy and Paolo Montalban, who previously played versions of the characters in the 1997 television adaptation of Cinderella.[4]
With 6.7 million views in its first three days of streaming,[5] the film broke a record in its debut on Disney+ as Disney Branded Television's most-viewed premiere ever on the platform.[6] The film later demonstrated substantial streaming viewership, leading as the top streaming original movie for a week and maintaining strong rankings throughout July and early August 2024.
