Inspired by the beautiful and diverse cultures of Southeast Asia, the film will also explore themes of community and hope.The fans, who had gathered at the session at the D23 Expo, got a chance to get a look at the new film, and watch a three-minute clip.Awkwafina is excited to lend her voice to Sisu, the Last Dragon, who was left on Earth in case dark forces return to the world, and Cassie Steele voices the lead character, Raya.The three-minute clip, which was shown at the session, highlights that the fantasy has strong influence on the cultures of Southeast Asia, but the movie is set in a mythical land."Our world was created by dragons, before they left they hid a gift for the people. A powerful but dangerous gift. One that could save an entire kingdom or bring it to an end. The question is what will we find? Hope of destruction?," said the narrator in the video.The crowd went crazy when Steel and Awkwafina walked onto the stage. Awkwafina said she likes the way she looks in her animated form as the dragon."That's me up there. I look good right? I like the hair. I look splendiferous," she said.Awkwafina and Steele elaborated a little more about Sisu and Raya."Raya is ready to meet a magical water being who breathes fog through her nose, flies by riding the raindrops, and has a gem that channels this amazing huge power," says Steele.To this, Awkwafina added: "When Raya first meets (her), she's in human form and needs Raya's help to reclaim her power to become her true dragon self."The fantasy-action-adventure "Raya and the Last Dragon" will open in the US on November 25, 2020.(Sugandha Rawal is in Anaheim at the invitation of Disney India.
