Calling all Disney Wish (2023) fans! The new Disney animated movie releases today (November 22) throughout the United States.
Disney Wish Movie
Starring the talents of Ariana DeBose as Asha, Chris Pine as King Magnifico, and Alan Tudyk as the goat Valentino, the film hopes for a stellar Thanksgiving weekend at the box office.

It tells the story of 17-year-old Asha, who is chosen to be the king’s apprentice, only to find out he is hoarding the wishes of the kingdom’s citizens.
Many Disney productions have not made a profit over the past couple of years. Obviously, Disney hopes this film is the exception, but we will have to wait and see.
Disney Wish Characters
In fact, Asha will be available to meet and greet guests at various Disney theme parks.
In addition to the classic characters, you can find a variety of Disney Princesses, villains, and unique characters throughout Disney parks.

Asha debuted at Walt Disney World Resort earlier this month at the EPCOT theme park. She has been meeting Disney guests at the World Showcase at the Friendship Ambassador Gazebo.
In addition to EPCOT, she can also be found at Disneyland Park in Anaheim starting today.
Beginning today at Disneyland Resort, Asha will appear outside The Royal Hall in Fantasyland. The ‘Valentino’ popcorn bucket and a ‘Star’ sipper also arrive today at Disneyland Resort. #Wish pic.twitter.com/9Yx3TKBrqK

As any Disney Fanatic knows, Disney often releases a new refillable (and collectible) popcorn bucket every couple of weeks or months. These usually tie into an upcoming movie, seasonal celebration, or an anniversary.
This newest creation is modeled after Valentino. It depicts a mischievous-looking Valentino as he sits. Popcorn can be filled through his back, and the bucket comes with a carrying strap. In the new movie, Valentino is voiced by Alan Tudyk, who has been involved with multiple animated Disney movies in the past.

Disney has also announced a sipper cup featuring Star from the Wish movie that will debut today as well. Just as with the popcorn bucket, it will feature a matching strap.
