New Hexed Clip From Jimmy Kimmel Live Shows Queen Celeste Rising Above A Hall Of Witches (VIDEO)

Queen Celeste, voiced by Jodie Foster, in Walt Disney Animation Studios' Hexed

Queen Celeste gets the spotlight in a new Hexed clip. The 37-second scene, which carries a Jimmy Kimmel Live! logo, shows Jodie Foster’s silver-haired witch standing before a hall full of witches and then rising into the air above them, two weeks before Walt Disney Animation Studios’ next film opens in theaters on Wednesday, November 25.

What Happens In The Clip

The scene opens on Queen Celeste in her wide purple hat and ruffled purple gown, standing in a tall green hall lined with tree-like columns and stained glass windows. She clasps her hands, throws her arms out wide, touches her face and closes her eyes as the scene plays out.

A wider shot shows the crowd in front of her. A group of witches and wizards in long robes and pointed hats stand in a circle on a pale marble floor patterned with rings, looking up at her. Celeste then lifts off the floor, her cape trailing behind her, and floats above the crowd as the others watch from below.

The last few seconds move to a pair of wizards holding glowing orbs in their hands. Inside one orb, a small figure tumbles through a blue sky. The clip ends on Celeste holding an orb of her own and staring into it with a startled look while two more witches hold glowing orbs behind her.

A Second Clip In Two Days

This is the second new Hexed scene to come out this week. On Tuesday, a 46-second Hexed clip sent two girls running through a crowded village. That scene played out on busy streets, while this one stays inside the witches’ hall.

Celeste is the first voice role of Foster’s career. Her casting was announced at D23 along with Walton Goggins, who voices Beef Roger Crummchuk, a three-eyed cat who can take off his own head. Foster said at the time that she had never voiced a character in a Disney animated film until now.
