Descendants	comment	Everybody knows that one of the key elements of the Disney Animated Canon is its Rogues Gallery, one of the most iconic sets of villains in all of Western Animation. We know them, and we know their histories. But what we don't know is their children. Are they themselves just as evil as their parents? Or are they simply doing what is expected of them? Can they break free of parental influences and carve their own path? Leave it to Kenny Ortega to answer that question in the form of Descendants, a Disney Channel Original Movie that premiered July 31st, 2015. It stars Dove Cameron, Sofia Carson, Cameron Boyce, and Booboo Stewart.The story is set in the United Kingdom of Auradon, a merging of all the various locations established in the various DAC films. A form of paradise, where all the "heroes" and associated friends and family live in peace. Of course, where there are heroes, there are villains, and those who filled that role are exiled to the Isle of the Lost, a place where magic is unusable, and have been scratching out a living ever since. In both places, life goes on, families begin...With his coronation as king approaching soon, Belle and Beast's son Ben decrees that the children of the most notorious Disney villains (Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil) should be allowed a second chance by attending the kingdom's Elaborate University High.Seeing it as an opportunity to get revenge, Maleficent and co. send their children — Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos — to obtain the Fairy Godmother's magic wand for their evil purposes. However, their children become torn between obeying their parents, or escaping their shadow to become better people; as mentioned, are they evil by birth, or are they just raised that way?A sequel premiered on July 21, 2017, simultaneously on Disney Channel, Disney XD, ABC, Freeform, and even both Lifetime and Lifetime Movies, taking place six months after the events of the film. After Mal cracks under pressure and returns to the Isle of the Lost, Ben and the other Villain Kids must race to save her from herself and from the new leaders of their turf: Uma (daughter of Ursula), Harry (son of Captain Hook), and Gil (son of Gaston).The third film premiered on August 2nd, 2019. This one involves Audrey, the daughter of Sleeping Beauty, who after serving as an Alpha Bitch in the first film and being completely absent in the second film, finally comes back with a vengeance and calls upon the darkest magic in Auradon to exact revenge. The film also sees the revelation of Mal's father: Hades, who apparently seeks revenge for being imprisoned on the Isle when he didn't want anything to do with either party. It was led-in by the featurette, Under the Sea: A Descendants Story, which aired on September 28, 2018. The third film is also notable for being the last major film role for Cameron Boyce before his untimely death on July 7th, 2019, less than a month before its premiere.A short series, Descendants: The Planning of the Royal Wedding, aired throughout September 2020. They serve as the lead-in to another featurette, Descendants: The Royal Wedding, which premiered August 13, 2021, immediately after the premiere of the DCOM Spin (2021).A fourth film, entitled Descendants: The Rise of Red is scheduled for release on Disney+ on July 12th, 2024. The only actors returning from the previous films are China Anne McClain (Uma) and Melanie Paxon (Fairy Godmother). It will also see Brandy and Paolo Montalban reprise their roles as Cinderella and Prince Charming from the 1997 television film. The story follows their daughter Chloe, who teams up with Red (daughter of the Queen of Hearts) to travel to the past and prevent a coup on Auradon. In doing so they'll also meet teenage versions of their parents as well as Ulyana, sister of Ursula and Uma's aunt.The film has had several other works based on it, though the canonicity of them compared to each other is nebulous at best:

Although more of an Establishing Character Moment, What's My Name? in the second film is for Uma, as well as China Anne McClain's end credits cover of Poor Unfortunate Souls. In the third film, there are two. The first, Queen of Mean, goes to Audrey, who, after stealing the crown and scepter, goes on a vengeful rampage throughout Auradon. The second, Do What You Gotta Do, is performed by Hades and Mal as Mal has to ask her father for his ember, the one thing that can stop Audrey's evil magic.

This culminates on Family Day. Mal looks so much like a young Maleficent that Queen Leah has an Oh, Crap! moment upon first meeting her, and when facing Maleficent, Ben seems to channel his father's Beast-side (too bad Maleficent didn't give him a chance). His attempt to redeem the villain kids is compared more than once to what his mother did for his father.

Descendants / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Descendants / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: The film features numerous references to the Disney Animated Canon. The design of Maleficent's staff is based on its 2014 film counterpart. Ben and co. perform a hip-hop remix of "Be Our Guest" during the Family Day celebration. Evie's bag resembles the box that the Evil Queen wanted to use to contain Snow White's heart. When Mal's corset is being laced up at the start of the second film, Mal tells Evie: "Okay, Evie, I cannot breathe", with Evie's actions alluding to the Grimm Brothers' literary version of the evil queen's attempt to kill Snow White with a tightly laced bodice. While admiring Jay's physique, Maleficent mockingly remarks, "Gaston should be jealous." When Doug sees Evie for the first time, he (exasperatedly) utters "Heigh-ho..." There are a few instances where Ben roars ferociously, just like the Beast. In the third film, Audrey turns him into an actual beast. Beast is shown to wear glasses, similar to how he wears a pair when he, Belle & Chip presented the award for Best Animated Short at the 64th Academy Awards? Upon seeing a lamp in Jay's hands, Jafar grabs it and rubs it eccentrically (it doesn't work, of course). Clearly, he's still a little crazy when it comes to magic lamps and genies. In one scene, Fairy Godmother teaches a special class for the VKs. The answers to her multiple-choice questions allude to their parents' past exploits (cutting out Snow White's heart, cursing Aurora, etc.) Maleficent crashes the coronation uninvited, dramatic entrance and all, just like in Sleeping Beauty. So does Audrey in the third film when she crashes Jane birthday's party. The irony of Aurora and Phillip's daughter acting similarly to Maleficent is just too perfect. The number on Carlos's tournament jersey is 101. Ben's middle name is "Florian". That's one of the alleged names of Snow White's Prince. The opposing team in the tourney match are the Sherwood Falcons. The third film reveals that Mal's father is Hades, signifying that he and Maleficent were an item in the past. A relationship between the two characters was previously hinted at in House of Mouse. At the end of the third film, Audrey is vanquished and falls into a deep sleep, just like her mother. She was also drawn to Maleficent's scepter like how her mother was drawn to the spinning wheel. Asked by Dr. Facilier what her "hustle" is with the AKs, Celia answers "No hustle. I've got friends on the other side", a reference to Facilier's Villain Song.

However, Audrey felt like she was cast in the dust, even considered a failure by her own grandmother because of this loss. This broke and cracked Audrey, driving her with a desire to take over Auradon herself.

Descendants / int_337a0f4	type	TrailersAlwaysLie
Descendants / int_337a0f4	comment	Trailers Always Lie: There are a few scenes that the trailer takes out of context, most notably the scene where Mal casts a spell to undo Jane's hair. The trailer presents it as Mal simply messing with another student out of spite, but in the film, Mal merely returns Jane's hair to the way it was before she enchanted it and only because she's in a bad mood after Jane makes fun of her. There's also a scene in the trailer that's left out of the film: when the Evil Queen plucks Evie's eyebrows and tells her 'Beauty is pain'. This could also be the case for "Where is Evie?" Disney made everyone think it was a big event, but it turned out to be a music video for the Wicked World show. The trailers for 3 made it look like Hades was the villain of the film when he only plays a crucial part in helping Mal. The true villain is Audrey. Also, the scene with Audrey in bed is used for the news report of the sleeping spell when really, she was the one who cast the spell and she fainted after returning to normal after the final battle. Like with Hades, other Descendants 3 trailers played up Umaâ€™s return and revenge and new VK Celia as possible villains responsible for the sleeping spell. Not only are they not the antagonists, but Celia is also a valuable ally and more of a Nice Girl compared to most of the other VKs (and Auradon kids), and while Uma does provide some conflict for Mal, her first scene ends with her crew forming an Enemy Mine with the Core Four to figure out who spelled Auradon.

In the second film, Evie gives Ben an Isle wardrobe "makeover" of a leather jacket and pants so he doesn't look out of place when they go back to the Isle to retrieve Mal. Maybe fitting for the former God of the Underworld, Hades has his entire wardrobe decked in leather pieces, spiked and chained too, giving him a "punk rocker" look.

How these worlds were put together has not yet been explained.

It's also meant to symbolize how the Core Four are trying to step out of their parents' shadows. The second film has "You and Me" which is essentially about always being who you are at heart, and not trying to be someone you're not. And the third film has "Break This Down" which closes the film trilogy on a banger with the Isle's barrier officially being taken down for good and most of the Isle's residents going to Auradon with both parties taking part in a very large ensemble number. The Royal Wedding special ends with "Feelin' the Love", in which the whole Auradon gang sings and celebrates Mal and Ben's wedding day.

Also, Chad is spot-on with his denouncing of Mal for stealing someone's boyfriend and Jay for liking to hurt people. He loses points when he gets to Evie and calls her a "gold-digger", and says nothing about Carlos (though Carlos hadn't done anything wrong so it's more or less justified).

We have Chad and Audrey, though she becomes friends with Mal and her prior antagonism toward her makes sense given their parents' history. In the third film, this is taken to a whole new level when Audrey makes a Faceâ€“Heel Turn and becomes the Big Bad, with Chad serving as her Dragon. Audrey is still more sympathetic than Chad though, as she's an Anti-Villain whose goals to marry Ben and become queen of Auradon were because she believes it's her destiny and nobody else's to marry Ben and become his queen, especially since they were goals her family has forced upon her, while Chad becomes her lackey just to save his own skin. By the end, however, both of them have made a Heelâ€“Face Turn.

Descendants / int_6ec4232f	comment	Casting Gag: Before being sent to Auradon, Jay barks like a dog to scare Carlos. Booboo Stewart portrayed one of the werewolves in the Twilight film saga. This also happens in one episode of the Wicked World spinoff: after Mal and Evie mistakenly cast a spell that makes everyone act and bark like dogs — except Carlos, oddly enough, Carlos decides to amuse himself by having an entranced Jay to do dog tricks and taking pictures of him doing them before reversing the spell. This isn't Keegan Connor Tracy's first time being in a story based on fairy tales. It's also rather fitting that she plays Belle, considering that her OUAT character played an essential role in the story of that show's version of The Beast. Anna Cathcart, the actress who played Drizella Tremaine's daughter Dizzy, also portrayed a young Drizella in Once Upon a Time. The Evil Queen isn't the first time Kathy Najimy's played a villainous Disney spellcaster, having previously played Mary Sanderson in Hocus Pocus.

Descendants / int_723be11b	comment	Villain Has a Point: Uma's revenge as the Big Bad in Descendants 2 stems from her anger at those in Auradon for not making any actual changes for the rest of the other VKs on the Isle after the Core Four VKs were brought over, despite it being presumed that this would be a regular occurrence. She has to spell it out for Ben when she takes him hostage, which he acknowledges that it was his initial plan that he failed to follow up on. And while her anger at Mal (and Evie, Jay, and Carlos by extent) is also partly personal, she isn't wrong about them seeming to forget about their lives on the Isle and not advocating for changes either. Indeed, it took the Core Four traveling back to the Isle for them to remember the awful conditions and realize they couldn't ignore that part of their lives anymore, instead deciding to use their new privileges as a way to help others. Hades makes one when he's brought over from the Isle to use his ember to save Audrey, who has fallen under a deep sleep after she is defeated. He lampshades the fact that they need him to help them, his enemies, and how Audrey is treated with indulgence because she is an Auradon citizen despite actively trying to destroy Auradon when the villains/Isle residents who tried to do the same or did lesser crimes were banished to the Isle, to which no one has a rebuttal. He still helps but out of reluctance solely because of his daughter Mal's request.

Descendants / int_72e54916	comment	Retired Monster: There are a number of villains on the Isle implied to have been as bad as they were in their respective Disney films prior to their imprisonment in the Isle of the lost, who on one hand don't care as much for the good of Auradon, but no longer have motivation for revenge and villainy after spending a long time on the Isle. This is true for villains like Dr. Facilier, who has a good relationship with Celia, but still encourages her to "get her cut" and has his own business to make ends meet, Lady Tremaine, who is still acting rather stoic and apathetic but has a salon family business, and Hades, who does nothing but gripe about his Glory Days as a god, and has very much given up after his last attempt to escape and wreak havoc, and resigned himself to the fact that it's futile, even though he's let out twice. Even Jafar and Evil Queen donâ€™t seem to care much about revenge or being rulers anymore, as they act pretty passive about Maleficentâ€™s plans for the magic wand, and their goals for their kids, while notably self-centered, don't involve anything that would be considered â€œvillainyâ€� note stealing items to sell in their shop or marrying a prince and being a good housewife; in fact, they can be fairly doting towards Jay and Evie compared to Maleficent and Cruella's parenting styles.

In Cinderella, she is portrayed as a very cruel woman who doesn't care about her daughters or stepdaughters, only herself. Here, while Descendants 2 described her as basically wicked â€œgrandmotherâ€� instead of â€œstepmotherâ€�, by the time of Descendants 3 she is shown to harbor some affection, albeit stoically, towards her granddaughter Dizzy, who serves as a Morality Pet for her, like being supportive of Dizzyâ€™s desire to go to Auradon, even though it would not benefit herself. Sure, she makes Dizzy sweep her shop constantly, but Dizzy implies that Lady Tremaine wasnâ€™t all bad to her aside from this. Dr. Facilier, the murderous and dangerously shady Big Bad from The Princess and the Frog, is now a loving father who runs an arcade for the villain kid community. Hades isn't nearly as hotheaded and sleazy as his animated counterpart. He genuinely loves his daughter Mal and even helps save Audrey at the end of 3.

Descendants / int_970c790a	type	Big Bad
Descendants / int_970c790a	comment	Uma's revenge as the Big Bad in Descendants 2 stems from her anger at those in Auradon for not making any actual changes for the rest of the other VKs on the Isle after the Core Four VKs were brought over, despite it being presumed that this would be a regular occurrence. She has to spell it out for Ben when she takes him hostage, which he acknowledges that it was his initial plan that he failed to follow up on. And while her anger at Mal (and Evie, Jay, and Carlos by extent) is also partly personal, she isn't wrong about them seeming to forget about their lives on the Isle and not advocating for changes either. Indeed, it took the Core Four traveling back to the Isle for them to remember the awful conditions and realize they couldn't ignore that part of their lives anymore, instead deciding to use their new privileges as a way to help others.

At the end of Descendants: The Royal Wedding, Ben says, "So this is what happily ever after looks like.", to which Mal responds, "For us? Yes. But somewhere another story could be just beginning." The camera then pans across the lake as an ominous musical sting plays, showing some roses partially coated in red paint with a bucket of red paint and a paintbrush nearby before going down a rabbit hole. This foreshadows Red's upcoming arrival in Auradon, as well as the debut of Wonderland, which are both slated to appear in The Pocketwatch (working title).

In the third film, during the limo ride escorting new VKs to Auradon Prep, he encourages Squeaky (one of Mr. Smee's sons) to try a peanut butter cup, which Squeaky also enjoys. Similarly, Mal tries strawberries for the first time in the first film and is amazed by them, and in 2, we hear a TV broadcast noting "Since Mal revealed her love of strawberries, she has received hundreds of cartons from her admirers." Gil discovering and devouring a bowl of grapes in the third film is very similar to how Mal reacted when she got to taste strawberries for the first time in the original film. Even as her hostage Ben views Uma as a leader and tells her she would be a strong proponent in Auradon to be part of the solution for real change for the Isle kids. In the third film, after finding out she and Mal have been working together to stop Audrey, he tells her he knew she would be part of the solution.

In Descendants, however, she blames Mal for her mother's actions, complaining about how she missed out on her daughter's childhood despite Mal being in no way responsible for Maleficent's actions. In Descendants 3, she's practically an abusive grandparent towards Audrey, berating her for not being able to marry Ben to preserve their family status, while stating that Aurora managed to hold on to a prince in her sleep (ignoring that Phillip and Aurora met beforehand, and Audrey managed to win over Chad Charming), ultimately being the final straw for Audrey's Faceâ€“Heel Turn. She does seem to have gotten better near the end of the film, though, as she apologizes to Mal for everything and claps when Mal declares to take down the Isle's barrier, contrasting her previous feelings about Villain Kids being brought to Auradon.

In her opening lines from "Rotten to the Core", Evie says outright that she didn't receive any love from her mother (though considering it's unlikely she'd know what love is if she didn't receive any, as well as the fact that she isn't surprised by her mother's display of affection during the video chat, she may be saying this to be dramatic), and when talking to Lonnie while making the love potion, it's all but stated that none of the kids were loved by their parents. It's also the catalyst for the events of the film and why Ben wanted them to come to school in Auradon, because he felt that they deserved a chance away from the influence of the villain parents. Seems to be averted with Dr. Facilier, as he's shown to have a very close and loving relationship with his daughter Celia, even if he encourages her to pull scams. He also doesn't have any ulterior plan for her to follow, is not upset when she says she's on a mission that doesn't involve hustling people, is never condescending or manipulative towards her and trusts her when she says she's got everything handled.

While they have their own defined color schemes (Uma with blue and sea-green, Harry with red and white, Gil with orange, and Dizzy with green and paint-splatters), none of them match up with their parents. Costume designer Kara Saun explained that because some of the villain parents shared a primary color scheme with other characters (ex. Purple already being Mal's color theme and red being shared by the original Hook and Gaston) she chose a secondary color the villains had in their original design. While Harry got to maintain Hook's main red color, Uma's turquoise was based off of Ursula's eyeshadow and Gil's sandy orange was from Gaston's gloves. Dizzy dresses up in shades of green similar to her mother, Drizella Tremaine, but she wears paint-splatters all over her outfits.

When Maleficent appears at the coronation, her first words are "I'm back!" The influence of the Michael Jackson video Thriller can be seen at the end of the dance sequence for Rotten to the Core. The antidote to a charming being a chocolate dessert sounds familiar ... A powerful sorceress from a well known Disney Film crashes a coronation in a CGI-Background Castle travelling via a cloud of smoke. Notice how Maleficent twirls her staff during "Evil Like Me" (specifically when she sings "Don't you wanna be very, very good at being bad?") In Wicked, Kristin Chenoweth's character, Glinda, pulls off the exact same gesture with her wand. In addition, during the same number, Maleficent also rises up into the air at least once in a moment reminiscent of the song "Defying Gravity", even if it wasn't Glinda's part. The tagline of the film (see caption of page image) seems to be a reference to Jessica Rabbit's "I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way" line.

Descendants / int_d001c42c	comment	Anti-Villain: Uma and Audrey. The former holds a desire for vengeance against Auradon because they neglected to consider the conditions of those living on the Isle, and her plan to destroy the Isle's barrier is so she can free the Villain Kids. The latter is understandably hurt that her boyfriend and future title as queen was taken from her by the daughter of the evil fairy who tried to kill her parents, and her desire to become queen of Auradon by force is therefore justified. Humorously enough, when Uma reads Audrey's diary (without her permission), she tells Mal "and dang, did you ruin Audrey's life!", as though she's making a bit of a comparison between herself and Audrey, though she wonders how anyone with Audrey's bed could ever be unhappy shortly after.

Uma, Harry, and Celia just solemnly express their disappointment in trusting her while Evie tearfully calls her out not only explaining that they're breaking their promise and responsibility to create actual change for the other Isle kids but also that she lied to her, Jay, and Carlos, since they all consider each other as a family. Ben's silence throughout all this can count as well, compared to all the other times he's come to Mal's defense, as he wasn't happy with the idea to close the barrier in the first place, and there's nothing in what Evie says that he can disagree with.
