The Wish trailer has built anticipation for Wish’s heatrical release date, on November 24th, 2023, just a month after Disney’s centenary.

Wish first implies that King Magnifico is an admirable King who grants wishes to better his kingdom. However, the Wish trailer shows King Magnifico using his magic in a scene where he is visibly angry, and the magic becomes a stronger color of green, signifying Walt Disney’s long-standing use of green to portray a villain’s true nature. King Magnifico is surrounded by the color and even shoots magic into the air to create a green infinity symbol.
