We’re heading to Colombia to hang out with one of the coolest families around - none other than the magical Madrigals! This incredible cast is stacked with some of the best performers around - but the secret behind this cast is… many of them never actually acted before! From the seasoned veterans to the newbies who brought their talents to the Disney screen - no one missed a beat when filming Encanto.
Stephanie Beatriz is no stranger to the business - the Argentinian-born actress has spent loads of time doing voiceover in the booth and acting in Brooklyn 99 as Rosa Diaz. Being part of this film was extra special for the actress - especially since her father is Colombian!
There was no shortage of legends in this cast. We’re talking about the likes of John Leguizamo, María Cecilia Botero, Diane Guerrero, and Wilmer Valderrama just to name a few!
There were some other pros in this movie who didn’t happen to be so well-versed in the filming world - but that didn’t stop them from blowing us out of the water. You’d never guess that Adassa and Mauro Castillo had never done any acting before because their parts in the movie made their mark. We wouldn’t be surprised if we start hearing their voices a whole lot more!
What was extra special about this whole cast is that all of them had some personal connection to Colombia - either they were from there themselves - María Cecilia Botero recorded the entire movie from her home country- or one of their parents was Colombian. Getting to celebrate that culture and passion boosted everyone’s performance and left us with work that is nothing short of amazing. We’re Encanto fans, there’s no doubt about it.

    What’s your fave Encanto song 🎵?
  • @kaitlynjane3173
    You skipped over Rhenzy Feliz who played Camilo and Carolina Gaitan who played Pepa, the entire cast was outstanding!
  • @kindlelight
    The whole internet loves Camilo and ya'll leave him out. What? Also would have loved to see who voiced Antonio and Pepa.
  • @ldcraig2006
    Disney's animators have this uncanny gift of being able to make the characters look like the actors who voice them. Not 100% exact, but so damn close you can see the influence. They're VERY good at what they do.
  • @montanadash20
    Knowing they recorded their roles separately makes the end of "we don't talk about bruno" seem that much more impressive 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
  • Diane Guerrero is literally Isabela 😂 If it was a live action, she'd be perfect
  • I DID NOT JUST LEARN THAT AGUSTIN IS ALSO HANDY MANNY-IM ACTUALLY CRYING OVER HERE 😂😂😂😂😂
  • @allysagime2181
    The actress of Dolores is so beautiful and i love her voice especially her soft voice which is one of Dolores' trademarks. Dianne is also perfect as Isabela, actually all of them are perfect in playing their roles. Hats down to Disney for casting actors with Colombian roots
  • @freddygalis1497
    My favorite is Abuela's voice. She has the warmth and somehow I feel her voice conveys the wisdom, pain and experience of the character. Loved her above all others.
  • @aidenafz
    I love when Dolores does her high-pitch "hm!"
  • I love that every character had some resemblance with the actor they were voiced by! Not 100% but something from the actor! I love it
  • For the record. I need you to know that the media never cared about this movie until people fell in love with it. Encanto came out in November. Stayed for one month in the cinema until they released it on stream. Then the wider public saw it and loved it. That's why all these media hype are in January. You won't find any from November and December, despite that they saw the movie.
  • @mysticangel192
    The fact that they all did this either over zoom, in quarantine, or in their own country and only meet on premiere night is just-.......like wow😭😍😍😍 frozen better step it up
  • @gingersnap1996
    You forgot to mention the reason why Stephanie Beatriz is the MVP! When she recorded "Waiting for a Miracle" she was IN LABOR! she literally recorded a song whilst waiting for her own miracle! 💖💖
  • It’s cute now Disney matched the characters almost with the real voice actors.
  • @cclark1929
    No ones gonna talk about the fact that they didn’t do Camilo, Antonio or Pepa Edit: oh my gosh thanks for all the likes :)
  • My 23 year old grown ass is absolutely obsessed with Encanto. I’m not embarrassed in the slightest 😘🌈✌🏻
  • @Nexluna
    I’m always amazed at how much the cast look like the characters as if it was meant to be 😄
