Hexed | Teaser Trailer

The first teaser for Disney Animation’s Hexed follows Billie and her mother Alice into the witch realm of Hexe after Billie discovers magical powers.

Walt Disney Animation Studios has released the first teaser for the feature animated film 《Hexed: The Witch Kingdom》(Hexed). While feeling like an outsider at school, protagonist Billie discovers that she has magical abilities and enters the world of witches, ‘Hex’ (Hexe), through a passage that opens in her room.

The film is a coming-of-age adventure in which Billie, an impulsive and unconventional teenage girl, and her cautious mother Alice travel through the witch world together and uncover family secrets. The teaser shows Billie testing abilities that are difficult to control and stumbling through broomstick flying as she struggles to get the hang of it.

Hailee Steinfeld voices Billie, and Rashida Jones voices Alice. It is directed by Von Virasunthorn and Jason Hand, with Josie Trinidad serving as co-director. Roy Conli and Yvett Merino are producing.

A South Korean release has also been announced for November 25, and schedules by country can be checked separately in the work information.
