Encanto’s Core Theme Makes Several Spinoffs Possible

Encanto cleanly wrapped up its story so that a sequel wouldn’t be necessary, but with the Disney film’s unique central themes, a spinoff could always be possible. Mirabel’s story may not have been a box office success (thanks to its 2021 release), but the film’s societal impact speaks for itself. Something about a story that outlines the damages of generational trauma and expectations speaks to audiences of all ages, and it’s precisely this that makes Encanto a uniquely viable option for a sequel or spinoff.
