The fantasy musical “Disenchanted” premieres November 18 exclusively on Disney Plus. The Amy Adams film is a direct sequel to the hit 2007 movie “Enchanted.”
“Disenchanted” picks up 15 years after the end of the first movie, which saw the fairy tale character Giselle (Amy Adams) move to the real world and start a family. The sequel reveals that Giselle’s “happily ever after” isn’t exactly what she expected, so she moves to the suburban community of Monroeville. Giselle eventually resorts to magic for help, which accidentally turns the town into a real-life fairy tale.
