Awkwafina & Cassie Steele to Lead 'Raya & The Last Dragon' Voice Cast for Disney!

Disney announced that they’ll be releasing an original animated film next year called Raya and the Last Dragon, featuring the voices of Awkwafina and Cassie Steele!

The stars were in attendance to announce the movie at the D23 Expo on Saturday (August 24) in Anaheim, Calif.

Awkwafina will voice Susi the Dragon while Cassie is playing Raya. They were joined at the event by directors Paul Briggs and Dean Wellins, writer Adele Lim, and producer Osnat Shurer.

Osnat said that the movie takes place in the fictional Kumandra, “a reimagined earth inhabited by an ancient civilization that venerated the mythical dragons for their power and their wisdom. It’s inspired by Southeast Asia, both in its themes of community and hope, and in its design,” according to EW.

Raya is a lone warrior from the fantasy kingdom of Kumandra who teams up with a crew of misfits in her quest to find the Last Dragon and bring light and unity back to their world. Sisu, the Last Dragon, was left on Earth in case dark forces return to the world.

The movie will be released on November 25, 2020.

'Mulan' Star Yifei Liu Skips D23 Amid Hong Kong Controversy

Yifei Liu, the newcomer who is playing the title role in Disney’s live-action Mulan movie, was absent from the D23 expo amid the controversy in Hong Kong.

The 31-year-old actress was expected to make an appearance at the event, but she likely decided not to attend after fans launched a boycott against the movie due to her support for the police in Hong Kong.

There have been police brutality protests happening in the area for weeks and people are very upset that she showed support for that side of the fight.

The film’s director Niki Caro appeared on stage and debuted several minutes of footage from the highly anticipated project, which will hit theaters on March 27, 2020.

In Disney’s Mulan, the Emperor of China issues a decree that one man per family must serve in the Imperial Army to defend the country from Northern invaders. So, the eldest daughter of an honored but ailing warrior masquerades as a man, transforming into a heroic warrior to ultimately earn her the respect of a grateful nation and a proud father.
