A LITTLE UNDER 10 YEARS AGO, DISNEY Indroduced the Descendants franchise, giving new life to their iconic animated characters in a modern live-action TV movie.
The premise worked. "It is just truly such a killer concept," says Kylie Cantrall, who stars as Red, the daughter of Alice in Wonderland's Queen of Hearts (played by Rita Ora), in their latest installment Descendants: The Rise of Red. In the film, Red and Chloe (Malia Baker), the daughter of Cinderella, team up to save their fantasy world from extinction.
Brandy Norwood reprises her role as Cinderella, which she first played in the now-classic 1997 TV movie Cinderella, reuniting with Paolo Montalban as Prince Charming. "They still have such a soft spot for each other. They just have the best chemistry."

WE'RE OFFICIALLY IN PRIMARY SEASON, WITH THE MID- terms in less than six months-sooner than you think. Will the Democrats take back the House? Pretty likely. The Senate? The longer the war in Iran drags on, the likelier that once-unthinkable outcome gets. But the race I can't look away from has nothing to do with the balance of power in Congress. It's the race for who will be the next mayor of Los Angeles.
