RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON new trailer – Disney’s newest animated epic looks pretty great

The new Disney animated film RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON has dropped a new trailer, and it looks really solid. Featuring the voices of Kelly Marie Tran (STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI) as Raya and Awkwafina as the last dragon Sisu. There are definite similarities here to MULAN, but I love how the designs and visuals are much more fantasy-related. We’re a little over a month off from the March 2021 release date, which appears to have moved up a week (originally set for March 12). Check out the new trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.

Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony. But when an evil force threatened the land, the dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity. Now, 500 years later, that same evil has returned and it’s up to a lone warrior, Raya, to track down the legendary last dragon to restore the fractured land and its divided people. However, along her journey, she’ll learn that it’ll take more than a dragon to save the world—it’s going to take trust and teamwork as well. From directors Don Hall and Carlos López Estrada, co-directors Paul Briggs and John Ripa, producers Osnat Shurer and Peter Del Vecho, and featuring the voices of Kelly Marie Tran as Raya and Awkwafina as the last dragon Sisu.

RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON is scheduled to open March 5, 2021
