Raya and the Last Dragon Trailer
Raya may have been a “lone warrior,” but she’s not so alone anymore in the newRaya and the Last Dragontrailer, which introduces the rest of the voice cast for the Disney film aside fromKelly Marie Tran, who stars as Raya, andAwkwafinaas the legendary dragon Sisu. Joining Tran and Awkwafina in the “fellowship of butt kickers” areBenedict Wongas Tong, “a formidable giant”;Izaac Wangas Boun, a 10-year-old entrepreneur;Thalia Tranas the mischievous toddler Little Noi; andAlan Tudykas Tuk Tuk, Raya’s “best friend and trusty steed.”
Rounding out the voice cast areGemma Chanas Raya’s nemesis, Namaari;Daniel Dae Kimas Raya’s father, Benja;Sandra Ohas Namaari’s powerful mother, Virana;Lucille Soongas Dang Hu, the leader of the land of Talon;Patti Harrisonas the chief of the Tail land; andRoss Butleras chief of the Spine land.
There’s a lot happening in this very silly trailer, which leans heavily into the comedy, in direct contrast to the somber andepic teaser that we first saw. But it is a Disney animated movie after all, and what better way to appeal to kids than to introduce a martial arts-fighting con baby?
Don Hall and Carlos López Estrada are directing, with Paul Briggs and John Ripa co-directing. The script is from Qui Nguyen and Adele Lim. Osnat Shurer and Peter Del Vecho produce.
