CS Video: Co-Writer Adele Lim & Producer Osnat Shurer Talk Raya and the Last Dragon

Ahead of its Friday release, ComingSoon.net spoke with co-writer Adele Lim and co-producer Osnat Shurer about Disney’s newest animated adventure Raya and the Last Dragon. The duo discussed how the world around them inspired the story, including their observations of the divisiveness in the world, saying the whole team knew they wanted the movie to be about coming together for the greater good. They further share having to explore what it means to “collaborate and to be together with your differences, celebrating differences as opposed to eradicating them.” Shurer and Lim also talk about trust, environmental issues, and more regarding what the characters and divided lands mean for Raya’s journey.

The movie is set to hit theaters and Disney+ Premier Access this Friday on March 5. You can check out our interviews now in the player below!

Long ago, in the fantasy world of Kumandra, humans and dragons lived together in harmony. But when an evil force threatened the land, the dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity. Now, 500 years later, that same evil has returned and it’s up to a lone warrior, Raya, to track down the legendary last dragon to restore the fractured land and its divided people. However, along her journey, she’ll learn that it’ll take more than a dragon to save the world—it’s going to take trust and teamwork as well.

Raya and the Last Dragon is led by Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) as Raya, who will be the first Southeast Asian to lead a Disney animated film. Tran stars alongside Awkwafina (The Farewell), who is voicing the dragon named Sisu.
