Disney continues to go into overdrive with the production of animated films. Thus, after the premiere of Soul Y Luca, the largest production company on the planet set its eyes on the north of South America for your next installment. Yes, the company felt a special attachment to Colombia, country in which you will base Charm, your big bet.
Very little is really known about the film, which is surprising because, apparently, plans are in place for it to be released this fall. What is known about its plot is that it will focus on the family Madrigal, which lives in a magical house. Each member of this has a special power, except the small Mirabel, who will be the protagonist. In the best style Disney, the latter will lead the great adventure, rescuing his people from an unknown danger.
However, what has been known more is about the settings. The feature film will be located, to a large extent, in the coffee region, a region where one of the most recognized coffees on the planet is produced. This is confirmed by the house that was shown in the teaser, located in the Cocora Valley. In reality, this emblematic place is located in the department of Quindio.
Apart from the coffee growing area, other possible places to be shown include the beaches and walled streets of Cartagena, the colorful and developed city of Medellin or the height of Bogota. All these, accompanied by yellow butterflies, alluding to the literature of the Colombian nobel Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
In this way, the studio published a poster. In the image you can see the interior of the Madrigal house, in which there are paintings, hummingbirds, a tricolor macaw, a toucan and a chigüiro. Each of these are autochthonous elements of the fauna of the Latin country.
On the other hand, it was confirmed that the first official trailer will be published today, which will surely reveal more about the plot. Byron howard Y Jared bush , from Zootopia, will direct the film, while Charise castro smith will write the script. The acclaimed in Broadway, Lil manuel miranda (In The Heights), will compose the music.
