Mirabel Actor Hasn't Heard 'Jack S—t' About Encanto 2, But Is Hopeful For Sequel

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Encanto 2 gets an update from Maribel voice actor Stephanie Beatriz, who expresses her hopes for a sequel. The Disney animated movie, directed by Jared Bush and Byron Howard, is centered around the Madrigals, a multigenerational Colombian family with special abilities.

During an interview with The Wrap that happened before the SAG-AFTRA strike, Beatriz expressed interest in making Encanto 2. The actor revealed that she gets asked about it a lot, but while there may be ways to continue its story, she ultimately has not "heard jack s–t." Read Beatriz's comments regarding a potential Encanto 2 below:

"I would love to work with them again. That team on that film was so incredible to work with that. I think a lot of [Jared Bush and Byron Howard’s] time right now is being taken up by other stuff... I know Jared and I think Bryon too are working on the second ‘Zootopia’ right now. But I would love to work with them again. I go to the parks a lot and whenever people recognize me they ask about that too.

Could Encanto 2 Happen? Despite a somewhat underwhelming performance at the box office, Encanto thrived on Disney+, where it debuted a month after its initial release. Because it proved successful and was met with positive reception from critics and audiences alike, it's hard to imagine a sequel not getting made. Encanto's soundtrack gained popularity, earning number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, and the movie itself won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

Encanto ended with Mirabel saving her family and their home while mending relationships with Alma and Bruno . Given the mountains appeared to break, Encanto 2 can focus on new events or settings outside of the Madrigals' village. It is worth wondering what else a sequel could touch on and what kind of songs might be included, as Beatriz's comments suggest there is still more to explore.With how quickly Encanto's engagement grew, there is a demand for a possible follow-up.
