Descendants: Wicked Wonderland cast members Brandy, Rita Ora and Leonardo Nam discuss how their characters have evolved in this fifth installment to the Descendants film franchise, how being parents has influenced how they see their characters and predict the film’s viral moment.
Brandy
From a mistake?
Leonardo Nam
What are we talking about?
Rita Ora
Mistake.
Brandy
You can tell we loved it.
Rita Ora
No words. There’s not enough words.
Leonardo Nam
Each time they present a script and a story, I’m always amazed by what Disney does. They kind of elevate the universe and they kind of open up this universe and franchise in a way that is mind blowing, but makes sense.
Rita Ora
I just was so excited to be coming back, and then obviously reading the script and working on a song with Brandy, like our duet for me, is my favorite selfishly on the soundtrack.
Brandy
Me too.
Rita Ora
We’ve always wanted to do a song together, and you know we didn’t record it together, but like it just was so exciting to film it on the day. We spent a whole day doing it. It was like a whole day.
Brandy
It was so great, and we supported each other. It was just a great vibe and experience, and I want to do more stuff. Me too, please.
Leonardo Nam
Yes. Oh, I’m here for it. Yes, please.
Rita Ora
You heard it first, Billboard.
Brandy
It was so beautiful to approach it as a mom because I am a mom and I love being a mom. I think that’s a part of my superpower is because I’m a mother, and I love the queen that she is, the friend that you see her become with the Queen of Hearts and how she takes control in this this new film and what she’s doing and I love it. I’m happy to be a part of something this special.
