Disney’s Hexed has hit the streets of New York, literally. A Hexed ad is now riding on top of a yellow New York City cab, with the film’s art and title on the taxi topper alongside a simple reminder: in theaters November 25.

The topper shows the Disney Hexed logo over the film’s art, with a girl conjuring glowing magic against a dark blue sky, and “In Theaters November 25” underneath. With the movie now less than two weeks from opening, the ad is about as hard to miss as it gets around the city.
What Hexed Is About
Hexed takes Walt Disney Animation Studios’ familiar Thanksgiving slot, a year after Zootopia 2 opened over the same holiday, and it opens Wednesday, November 25, the day before Thanksgiving. It is the studio’s 65th animated feature. It follows Billie, an impulsive and unconventional 16-year-old voiced by Hailee Steinfeld, who discovers secret magical abilities that pull her out of suburbia and into a vast witch realm called Hexe. She is forced to team up with her cautious mother, Alice, voiced by Rashida Jones, and together they uncover family mysteries that could change the world of witches forever.
Jodie Foster voices Queen Celeste, the ruler of Hexe, and Walton Goggins plays Beef Roger Crummchuk. The voice cast also includes Henry Winkler as Nigel, a skittish potoo bird, Dan Stevens as the queen’s Grand Councilor, Hieronymous, Tracey Ullman as the enchanted quill pen Ms. Quill and Stephen Fry as the magical journal Elias Quire. Fawn Veerasunthorn and Jason Hand direct, with Josie Trinidad as co-director, and the film is written by Jared Bush, the studio’s chief creative officer, and Dana Ledoux Miller, with a score by Kris Bowers. It is rated PG for action and some rude humor.
The Hexed Push Is Everywhere
The cab toppers are the latest piece of a big rollout. Disney has been releasing new clips, including one that shows off Beef Roger Crummchuk’s magic ride. Billie, billed in the parks by her full name, Billie Doe, is also about to start meeting guests. She starts greeting guests at Disneyland on November 20 and at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on November 25, the day the film opens.
For New Yorkers, the taxis are an easy way to spot it, and for everyone else, the countdown to opening day is officially on. Keep an eye on the cab roofs over the next two weeks, because the next ride you hail might come with a little Hexed magic on top.
