‘Hexed’ Drops First Teaser Ahead Of Thanksgiving Release

Walt Disney Animation Studios has released one project a year for quite some time now, with the last five being released in the Thanksgiving period. Hexed, the latest from the studio, is aiming to continue that tradition. Now, the first trailer for Hexed has been released. Watch it below:

The trailer follows a teenage girl, who expelled from school, finds out that she has magic powers, and soon is invited to a secret dimension called Hexe (a fun play on the concept of hexes). Not too much is given away about the plot besides this, though there is a talking book and quill, something quite reminscient of golden age Disney films such as Beauty and the Beast.

The synopsis for the trailer, which is approximately two minutes long, reads as follows:

The new trailer introduces the impulsive and unconventional teenage girl Billie (voiced by Hailee Steinfeld) and her cautious mother, Alice (voiced by Rashida Jones). When Billie accidentally unleashes secret magical abilities, she’s hurtled out of suburbia and into a magical realm called Hexe, where she’s greeted by Ms. Quill (voiced by Tracey Ullman) and Elias Quire (voiced by Stephen Fry). As Billie’s spectacle-filled journey unfolds, she uncovers family mysteries that could change the magical world of witches forever.

This signals the start of the marketing campaign for the thanksgiving release, which will join the ranks of recent box office juggernauts, such as Moana 2 and Zootopia 2, hoping to replicate the success of those films. As part of this rollout, a poster was also released, which you can view below:

Hexed stars Hailee Steinfeld, Rashida Jones, Tracey Ullman, and Stephen Fry. The film is expected to be released in theatres on November 25, 2026.
