Billie Doe, the teen witch from Disney’s Hexed, starts meeting guests at Disneyland on Nov. 20 and at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on Nov. 25, the day the movie opens.
There’s a new witch coming to the parks.
Billie Doe, the star of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Hexed, will start making appearances at Disneyland on Friday, Nov. 20, Disney announced on Instagram. She arrives at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World on Wednesday, Nov. 25.
That’s the same day Hexed opens in theaters. “There’s a new witch in town,” Disney wrote in its post.
When can you meet Billie Doe at Disney parks?
Starting Nov. 20 at Disneyland in California and Nov. 25 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida, according to Disney’s post.
Disney hasn’t shared where in each park she’ll appear, her daily times or how long the meet will run. Check the Disneyland and My Disney Experience apps for character times once she debuts.
Who is Billie Doe?
The 16-year-old hero of Hexed, voiced by Hailee Steinfeld. Disney describes her as “impulsive, misunderstood and unconventional.”
Billie discovers she has secret magical powers, and they pull her out of the suburbs and into Hexe, a hidden land of witches. Her mom, Alice, voiced by Rashida Jones, has been hiding Billie’s powers since she was little.
Watch the official Hexed teaser trailer from Walt Disney Animation Studios:
Who is Hailee Steinfeld?
An Oscar-nominated actress Disney fans know as Kate Bishop in Marvel’s Hawkeye on Disney+. She also voices Gwen Stacy in the Spider-Verse movies and Vi in Netflix’s Arcane.
On the big screen, she also starred in Pitch Perfect 2 and Pitch Perfect 3.
Who else is in Hexed?
Jodie Foster voices Queen Celeste, who rules the darker corners of Hexe. She’s the only other witch who can fly, which makes Billie a threat.
Walton Goggins plays Beef Roger Crummchuk, a grumpy three-eyed cat who reluctantly helps Billie and Alice.
Fawn Veerasunthorn and Jason Hand direct, with Josie Trinidad as co-director.
When does Hexed come out?
Wednesday, Nov. 25, exclusively in theaters. The new short Lilo & Scratch plays before it.
Early tracking has Hexed opening to $35 million to $45 million over its first three days and $50 million to $70 million over the five-day Thanksgiving holiday, Boxoffice Pro projected.
Is there anything else Hexed-related at Hollywood Studios?
Yes. The Magic of Disney Animation in the Animation Courtyard already has a Hexed display with character maquettes and concept art. It sits in a “coming soon” room past Olaf Draws.
There’s also a self-serve Hexed photo spot inside the same attraction, with three pointed arches and a gold sun, tree and moon on green tile.
Tips for meeting Billie Doe
Go early in her first few days. New characters tend to draw long lines right after they debut, especially during holiday crowds. Thanksgiving week is one of the busiest stretches of the year at both resorts.
Bring a witchy touch. A pointed witch hat is an easy way to make your photo with Billie feel like a scene from the movie.
