“I can’t think of Ellian without thinking of Rachel Zegler. She just IS Ellian. She’s got such a wonderful, charismatic personality, very real and fresh. She’s a great actress and a stunning singer,” Vicky shared in a statement. “When we met and started working with her she was just down for it, down to play, to try anything. Even in her earliest demos of the songs she was weeping, she was laughing, she just brought everything and left nothing on the table. A lot of what she did in those early days is still in the movie, it was just that good. Rachel is one of a kind. She simply has everything.”
Spellbound follows the adventures of Ellian, the tenacious young daughter of the rulers of Lumbria who must go on a daring quest to save her family and kingdom after a mysterious spell transforms her parents into monsters.
The upcoming movie features a score by Alan Menken, as well as new, original songs by Alan and Glenn Slater.
Also starring in the animated adventure musical are the voices of John Lithgow, Jenifer Lewis, Nathan Lane, Tituss Burgess, and Javier Bardem and Nicole Kidman as Ellian’s parents.
Spellbound premieres November 22nd on Netflix.
If you missed it, Rachel just officially made her Broadway debut!
