Disney Channel’s news animated series, “Elena of Avalor,” will premiere on Friday, July 22 at 7:00 p.m. ET/PT. The series, a spin -off of the popular “Sophia The First,” will be one of the few to incorporate diverse Latin and Hispanic culture and folklore into the series.
The role of 16-year-old Princess Elena, the bold, caring, funny and clever ascendant to the throne in the fairytale kingdom of Avalor, will be voiced by Aimee Carrero. The all-star cast includes: Joseph Nunez, Yvette Nicole Brown, Danny Trejo, Jillian Rose Reed, Julie Vera, Ivonne Coll and Chris Parnell.
Princess Elena of Avalor, a confident and compassionate teenager in an enchanted fairytale kingdom inspired by diverse Latin cultures and folklore, began her journey long ago when her parents and kingdom were taken from her by the evil sorceress, Shuriki.
Elena bravely faced the sorceress to protect her little sister, Princess Isabel, and grandparents but in the process, her magical amulet pulled her inside its enchanted jewel, saving her life but imprisoning her at the same time. Decades later, Princess Sofia of Enchancia discovers the truth about the amulet she has worn since joining her royal family and sets out to restore Elena to her human form and help her return to the kingdom of Avalor.
Princess Elena’s further adventures will lead her to understand that her new role requires thoughtfulness, resilience and compassion, the traits of all truly great leaders.
