Despite the similarity, the first interpreter of Robert Philip’s daughter did not return to the role in ‘Disenchanted’; find out why!
With the premiere of ‘Disenchanted’ held last Friday, the 18th, directly at disney+it was possible to follow not only the new plot twists 15 years after the premiere of ‘Enchanted’, but also to see again Amy Addams in the role of Giselle, Patrick Dempsey as Robert Philip, James Marsden giving life to Prince Edward and Idina Menzel like Nancy.
However, although most of the names involved in the production are back, one of the actresses present in the cast of the first film in the franchise did not return to her role in the sequel: Rachel Coveythe interpreter of Morgan, the adorable daughter of Robert.
The actress, who was only 9 years old during the recording of the first film in 2007, is now 24 years old. Thus, it was to be imagined that she would return to the production to give life to the older version of her character, but instead, she was replaced by Gabriella Baldacchino🇧🇷 Why did this happen?
New dreams
The truth is Rachel Covey ended up treading new directions for his career. That’s because work on the big screen ended up no longer being her priority, as the girl started to dedicate herself to music, even graduating from Northwestern University and working on the composition of several musical theater plays.
With that, it was necessary to find a new interpreter for Morgan – and that’s how Disney arrived at the name of Gabriella Baldacchino🇧🇷 The 20-year-old actress who participated in the film ‘Annie’ and, in 2021, was part of the cast of the series ‘The Conners’. Gabriella had her emotional reaction to being approved for the role recorded and publicized on the producer’s social media. Remember!
A nod to the old days
Despite not returning to live Morgan, covey was not left out of the new production. She appears in the Queen Malvina Monroe presentation scene telling Giselle that that same night there will be a festival. Her presence is seen around 1h20 of the film.
Curiosity
In ‘Enchanted’, Morgan is described as a 6-year-old girl, but, despite the fact that 15 years have passed between the events of the first film and its sequel, in ‘Disenchanted’ the girl is not 21 years old as she should be, but yes, 16 years.
What is the story of ‘Disenchanted’?
According to the synopsis of the film contained in Disney +, the plot accompanies Giselle 15 years after her marriage to Robert Philip. Now with a beautiful baby named Sofia, dealing with Morgan’s adolescence and a thousand tasks during the day, the princess of Andalasia realizes that real life is not as magical as she idealized, so she starts looking for a new fairy tale. However, having her “happily ever after” thwarted, she ends up messing up the natural order of the world with magic and bringing chaos to everyone around her.
