Disney's "Descendants: Wicked Wonderland," the fifth film in the franchise, is now streaming on Disney Channel and Disney+, with stars Malia Baker and Kylie Cantrall discussing the production in a new interview. The film returns to a Wonderland-inspired setting, continuing the story of Red and Chloe following the events of "Rise of Red," and matters to fans as it expands the Descendants universe with new characters while addressing questions about a potential sixth instalment.

The plot picks up after Red (Cantrall), daughter of the now-reformed Queen of Hearts (Rita Ora), and Chloe (Baker), daughter of Cinderella (Brandy), discover that altering the past has inadvertently created a new villain, Maddox Hatter, son of the Mad Hatter, played by Leonardo Nam. Both actresses spoke of the personal significance of the shoot, with Baker filming in her hometown of Vancouver on sets that included practical builds such as giant teacups and an oversized chess set, and Cantrall highlighting costume details including 14 heart logos woven into Red's regal new wardrobe, reflecting her character's evolution from rebel to princess.
