Surprise! Amy Adams is set to reprise her role as Princess Giselle in a sequel of Enchanted.
Disney+ announced on Thursday that they would be creating a sequel of the beloved 2007 movie. The title of the sequel will be Disenchanted.
Enchanted was Adams’ first major blockbuster success as a feature character and acted as a launchpad for her career helping her land roles in films such as Doubt and The Fighter.
Enchanted earned three Oscar nominations in the Best Original Song category for “Happy Working Song,” “So Close,” and “That’s How You Know.” Adams also earned a Golden Globe nomination for her portrayal in the film.
Back in 2007 when Enchanted was released, Adams told Entertainment Weekly that she loves “playing characters who have big hearts and really believe in something,” which are all characteristics she saw in Giselle.
“I’ve been in a lot of smaller films that weren’t appropriate to take my niece and nephew to, so I needed a movie to get to bring them to. I come from a musical theater background, and it was so much fun to get to do that,” she said at the time.
A date for the premiere of Disenchanted has yet to be announced, but the sequel film will stream exclusively on Disney+.
