Wonderland is about to get wonderfully wicked.
Disney has released the official trailer and poster for “Descendants: Wicked Wonderland,” giving fans a thrilling first look at the highly anticipated next chapter in the hit “Descendants” franchise. A special recording of the new villain anthem, “Mad-Wicked Wonderland,” was also unveiled.
The original movie premieres Thursday, July 17, exclusively on Disney+ Philippines.
A New Villain Rises in Wonderland
With the Queen of Hearts now kind and Cinderella finally safe, everything appears perfect for Red and Chloe. Unfortunately, changing the past has created an unexpected and dangerous consequence.
A new villain has emerged: Maddox Hatter.
After Maddox captures the Queen of Hearts, Red and Chloe must assemble a powerful new team to rescue her and protect Wonderland. Joining the mission are Red’s new sister Pink, Luisa Madrigal’s son Luis, Captain Hook’s daughter Hazel, and Maddox’s own son Max.
Together, the group must overcome new threats, surprising alliances, and a mystery that could change Wonderland forever.
