New Encanto Poster Showcases the Magical Powers of the Madrigal Family

The film follows a Colombian family, the Madrigals, who live in an enchanting place called Encanto and are blessed with magical powers. From speaking to animals to superhuman strength, every member of the family is endowed with some supernatural ability. However, one of the children, Mirabel, does not have a special gift like the others. When Mirabel discovers that the magic of Encanto is in peril, she decides that as the only one in the family without powers, she might be the one who must bring things back to normal. The poster features all the characters in this extraordinary family, each showcasing their special abilities, like the power of creating flowers and speaking with animals, with the exception of Mirabel who is standing comically in the front. The trailer gives us a clear insight into both the setting and its magical qualities, like how the house seems to have a life and personality of its own, as well as an idea of the journey Mirabel must go on in order to preserve the magic in her town.
