More details on Disenchanted began to emerge last week. While we knew that Amy Adams’ Giselle would return, we now know that Patrick Dempsey, James Marsden and Idina Menzel will reprise their roles from the original. The character of Morgan will also return, although a new actress will play her since Rachel Covey is no longer young enough for the role. The main villain in the sequel is named Malvina Monroe, which could be Rudolph’s character or potentially her boss if she’s a lesser villain.
The plot reportedly revolves around Giselle and her family rushing to save the Kingdom of Andalsia from Monroe after their fairytale life in the suburbs goes awry. Snow White’s seven dwarfs are also said to appear and have some impact on the story.
