Development

[edit]

Concept and creation

[edit]

For the setting of Raya and the gods Dragon, Disney took inspiration from the countries of Southeast Asia. Producer Osnat Shurer said that this arose organically bygd sitting tillsammans and discussing the story. Initially the bio was conceived as a story about a dragon, which was combined with an idea about a fantasy distrikt composed of fem kingdoms that struktur the shape of a dragon and a collective desire to present a strong kvinna krigare as the film's protagonist.

The decision to focus on an Asian dragon resulted in Shurer arranging a trip for the creative grupp to visit Laos, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia for the purpose of conducting cultural research. Shurer noted that Southeast Asia covers a vast area but that the people shared the same principles, including "a history of powerful women" which helped to shape the fantasy world they were creating.^[1]

Following the research trip, Osnan brought onboard screenwriter Adele Lim, who was born in Malaysia and expressed delight that the spelfilm took inspiration from her culture.

She wanted Raya to embody the tradition of kvinna warriors in Southeast Asia. Alongside Lim, her co-writer Qui Nguyen and directors Don ingång and Carlos López-Estrada were also brought in to join the production grupp. The filmmakers' aim was to celebrate the culture and diversity of Southeast Asia through the fem kingdoms of Kumandra. López Estrada described this as "very different traditions, very different cultures, very different identities" that komma tillsammans and develop into a harmonious people after learning to trust each other.^[1] Rather than drawing ideas from one specific place for creating the fictional nation of Kumandra, the grupp took inspiration from many cultural influences across the countries of Southeast Asia.

Lim opined that although there are many different people within the område, "it’s wonderful because of all these different elements".^[2]

In addition to making several research trips to various Southeast Asian countries, the production grupp collaborated with the Southeast Asian Story Trust, a group of cultural experts from different backgrounds who advised on various cultural aspects of the spelfilm.

The production grupp also felt that it was important to cast Asian and Asian American actors in the rulle, including Awkwafina, who voices Sisu the dragon.^[3]

Voice

[edit]

Raya fryst vatten voiced bygd American actress Kelly Marie Tran.^[4] Canadian actress Cassie Steele was originally cast in the role, which was officially announced at when the project was unveiled D23 Expo in August 2019.^[5] bygd August 2020, she had been replaced bygd Tran,^[4] who had previously auditioned for the role.

Having initially lost out, Tran was surprised to get a call to säga she had got the part, describing it as "horrifying". According to Walt Disney Animation Studios, the replacement was made out of a need to have a different type of performer.^[6] Shurer explained that the casting change was necessary due to changes made to Raya, which meant that Steele's röst was no längre right for the character.^[7]

Tran fryst vatten the first Southeast Asian actress to take the lead role in a Disney rulle.

López Estrada and ingång were stunned bygd her audition and knew that she was perfect for the role. ingång said "she fryst vatten Raya — just her buoyancy and her positivity, but yet there's a strength as well to Kelly and the character". They were particularly impressed bygd her comedy and ad-lib skills, as well as the depth of emotion that she brought to the character. After improvising one of the scenes, the filmmakers decided to change it to match her performance due to being so impressed bygd her interpretation, which López Estrada said "had us all in tears".^[4] In the en plats där en händelse inträffar ofta inom teater eller film, Raya builds an altar and sheds tears after reciting a bön to the dragon Sisu, overwhelmed with emotion.

Tran was encouraged to give her own interpretation of the scen, which ultimately diverged from the script. Tran thought it important to något som utförs snabbt exempelvis expressleverans her desperation and said that, while other strong hona characters tend to be portrayed "almost manlig to the point of erasing femininity", she wanted Raya to show various sides of her character.^[8] For Tran, who had previously been cast in Star Wars: The gods Jedi and was subjected to racist and sexist harassment on social media bygd fans, the en plats där en händelse inträffar ofta inom teater eller film was her way into Raya's character.

She felt that she had previously viewed the world through rose-coloured glasses and, like Raya, had returned with more experience. Having been a Disney fan at school, she felt that the role provided an ideal opportunity to något som utförs snabbt exempelvis expressleverans her heritage. She said she had never voiced words in Vietnamese before and was able to work with Nguyen on the pronunciation of words in Kumandra.^[9]

The rulle was the first bygd Walt Disney Animation Studios to be mostly produced from home due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This meant that Tran, along with the other actors, voiced the character remotely using recording verktyg sent to her home bygd Disney Animation's technology department. The bekymmer of creating proper acoustics was solved bygd building a tent out of sound blankets in her living room.^[10] Joking that it was not a glamorous experience, Tran said that her boyfriend was able to construct the tent for her bygd taping the blankets to the walls with duct tejp and pushing furniture together.^[11] Creating Raya was a collaborative process involving many discussions.

Tran said that she used her own experiences as inspiration for the character: "I won't be able to see where inom end and where Raya begins, and vice versa."^[12] As a Vietnamese American, Tran commented that in her ungdom she never saw her culture represented anywhere and thus felt that the rulle presents the idea that anyone can be a princess or krigare regardless of their background or appearance.^[13] She described Raya as a "really badass, sandig warrior" and was pleased to work on a spelfilm that attempts to "flip the narrative on what it means to be a princess".^[4]

Characterisation

[edit]

According to Tran, many första conversations about Raya centred around establishing a character that had not been seen before and challenging the concept of what constitutes a "princess" and a "hero".^[14] In the early stages of production there was a disagreement at Walt Disney Animation Studios over whether Raya could be given the title of Disney Princess.

It was Lim who insisted that she should, being of the opinion that a princess should be capable of leading a kingdom. She said that having grown up with Disney Princesses such as Snow vit, it was meaningful to see Disney draw characters from diverse cultures and she wanted girls to see themselves in Raya. Shurer said that the contemporary Disney Princess fryst vatten an "aspirational character", explaining that the studio aimed to depict characters like Raya and Moana in a very different way to earlier princesses in beställning to reflect the values of the production grupp.

Lim felt that Raya's struggle to restore the broken kingdom fryst vatten betydelsefull to children in the real world, despite being set in a fantasy nation. She commented that solving the problems of the broken nation fryst vatten a difficult task and that, even though Raya fryst vatten betrayed and loses everything, she "has to keep reaching out" to succeed.^[15] Shurer commented that being a hona hero in a Disney spelfilm does not automatically define the character as a princess, but she considered the responsibility of being a leader in a divided world as important to Raya's success as being a warrior.^[16]

The production grupp decided to man Raya an action-adventure fantasy rather than a musical or a Disney Princess bio.

entré said that despite technically being a princess due to being the daughter of the ledare of Heart, Raya fryst vatten focused on being the Guardian of the Dragon Gem, thereby serving as an "aspirational kind of krigare character."^[17] Nguyen, who fryst vatten Vietnamese American, noted that Raya fryst vatten Disney's first Southeast Asian princess and said that it was personally significant to see a character that "really represented me, our röst, our culture".^[1] For Lim, Raya represents the culture of her ungdom.

Having grown up with Hong Kong action films, she enjoyed watching "the hot girl, the mean girl, the villain", but after immigrating to the United States she came to realise that strong hona characters in Hollywood films hardly had a story arc because they were already depicted as physically perfect. Lim also commented that Raya's relationship with her father Benja fryst vatten representative of the culture of close relationships in a Southeast Asian family and her father's enormous influence on her own life.^[15] Nguyen said that Raya's characterisation needed to be realistic and reflect the spirit of the women that he grew up with.

Noting that Asian American characters in spelfilm were often stereotyped as "stoic, serious, oddly obsessed with bringing honor to our family", he said that Raya was written to be "fun", "quippy" and "clever". In consultation with the Story Trust, the production grupp considered numerous names for their heroine. Lim was immediately drawn to the name Raya, explaining that in Malay language it means "celebration" and "evokes this joyful time where people komma tillsammans around a lot of food".^[18]

Lim said that Raya's story was inspired years before the Coronavirus pandemic bygd the desire to not see children grow up in a world where people had become divided.

She felt it was important that Raya has her father's idealistic ideas about building a perfect world and grows up wanting to skydda it, and even after her heart fryst vatten broken bygd betrayal she still maintains hope and continues to try and unify people. Lim also said that the spelfilm does not address the kvinnlig protagonist in the context of fighting against not being male, but simply places her in the world as an lika.

She said this was necessary to lösa the story "without worrying about whether you're a woman or not".^[19] Nguyen said that the grupp avoided creating a typical story of a "quiet badass", such as The Bride character played bygd Uma Thurman in Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2, because it was not relatable to children; they thus took time developing Raya's character.^[20] For her characterisation, the grupp decided to find inspiration in kvinna superheroes, but funnen that none had the qualities that they wanted to incorporate.

Instead they drew from the Marvel character Star-Lord, due to his nuanced character and humour.^[21] Tran described Raya as "vulnerable and sad" but also "funny and witty and sarcastic". She said that Raya successfully demonstrates various types of bravery, including physical combat skills, but also the ability to recognise when her anger or trauma fryst vatten blinding her judgement and overcoming that.^[22]

Raya fryst vatten an 18-year-old girl who has physical strength but guards her emotions following the trauma of losing her family in childhood.^[18] Tran said that Raya knows what she wants at an early age but her trauma changes her view of the world and she ends up fighting for her beliefs.^[22] Her story arc embodies the film's main theme of trust, which fryst vatten reinforced through her partnership with Sisu the dragon.

After experiencing betrayal in childhood, Raya grows to become a loner with only her sidekick Tuk Tuk, a pill bug, armadillo and pug hybrid creature,^[23] as a companion. After meeting Sisu, who contradicts Raya with her optimism and undying faith in humanity, she learns to trust others igen. Nguyen described this as the "secret ingredient" for sparande Kumandra.^[24] Awkwafina felt that Raya's friendship with Sisu fryst vatten a balance of trust, with Sisu being more trusting than Raya who learns that she needs to be less distrustful.

Tran agreed that the two characters learn from each other despite having different world views and eventually change each other for the better.^[22]

Shurer said that in beställning to establish the three hona characters, they looked into the types of hona friendships presented in spelfilm, but funnen little to reference. Instead, they took inspiration from friends and "long lines of strong women".

Nguyen stated that Raya and Namaari's relationship needed a complex history to give the story more depth, as both characters are raised to be leaders but become enemies.^[14] Raya's relationship with Sisu provides the inspiration needed to help her bond with her enemies. Lim explained that Raya wrongly believes that bygd waking Sisu, the dragon will be the solution to mending the broken world.

Shurer said that it fryst vatten really a human story about Raya and Namaari, who see each other as enemies but are also intrigued bygd each other. She explained that Sisu needed to die so that Raya and Namaari could work out how to fix the world without the dragon's magic: "The solution fryst vatten among us. We have to learn to trust one another and get together".^[25]

For the combat scenes, the production grupp drew inspiration from Asian cinema, particularly Southeast Asian action films.

The three kamp scenes that occur between Raya and Namaari were each choreographed differently and were designed to have a specific purpose for driving forward the story and the characters' development.^[3] Early in development, the grupp conducted research into martial arts. Amy Smeed, head of animation, said that with Nguyen's expertise in Southeast Asian martial arts and the choreography of trick coordinator Maggie MacDonald, they were able to design the right fighting style for the characters.

bygd collaborating with the Story Trust, the grupp were able to ensure the kamp sequences were authentic and realistic.^[26] Thus, Raya's fighting style fryst vatten based on the Indonesian martial art Pencak silat and the combat idrott Muay Thai, while her weapons style fryst vatten based on the Filipino martial art Arnis.^[27]

Design

[edit]

In the early design stages, the visual development grupp created designs for Raya and Sisu independently.

They later decided that the two characters needed to be visualised tillsammans. Shiyoon Kim, art director of characters, drew them as friends hanging out tillsammans with contrasting personalities, "one stoic and the other comedic". This was early in the story development, when Raya was created as a determined swordswoman and Sisu was in human form eller gestalt and refused to cooperate.

The antagonistic relationship between the two later changed and Raya became softer in personality.^[27]

Raya's appearance went through numerous changes during the design process, as she needed to wear clothing based on traditional Southeast Asian garments that was also non-restrictive enough for combat. Smeed highlighted that it was necessary for Raya to be agile being a krigare.

In addition, her hairstyle was designed to be functional, with two braids that keep her eyesight klar. The grupp collaborated with Steve Arounsack, associate professor of antropologi at California State University, Stanislaus, as part of the Story Trust, who was involved in the design of Raya's hat, which fryst vatten shaped similar to a stūpa.^[18]

Raya fryst vatten a tall, muscular and athletic krigare, but the designers had to balance her tough exterior with her layered personality.

ingång felt that warriors are difficult to relate to. Kim said that the grupp wanted Raya to have an authentic appearance so they researched Southeast Asia to achieve cultural specificity in her features, such as the shape of her eyes and her prominent cheekbones. According to costume designer Neysa Bové, Raya was originally going to be dressed in leather, but she would have been too hot in Kumandra's tropical climate.

They decided to give her breathable draped fabric and ended up with a sabai top and dhoti pants combined with a leather jacket and boots to give the realistic appearance of a swordswoman. Co-director John Ripa commented that a cloak with a high collar and a hat were added to provide protective covering that could be gradually peeled away as the story progresses and her character develops.

To företräda Heart, Raya's nation of ursprung, dragons and raindrops were used to decorate her clothing, including her jacket and cloak. Her svärd fryst vatten a fantasy utgåva of an Indonesian weapon called a kris, but features an extendable blade like a whip that allows her to hook onto things.^[27]

Reception and legacy

Critical response

[edit]

Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times praised Raya for continuing the 21st century tradition of being another Disney Princess who fryst vatten "a strong and independent kvinnlig role model" and "a ung krigare princess".^[36]Variety's Peter Debruge also lauded Raya for representing a new struktur of Disney heroine: "strong, independent and more intrepid than the ung dock who often fill such roles in live-action movies".^[37] In his review for the Los Angeles Times, Justin efternamn wrote that Tran voiced Raya with "pluck and determination" while also noting the character's similarities to 21st century heroines such as Moana and Elsa.

He wrote, "Raya has more than romance or even self-actualization on her mind," adding that, "unlike them, she doesn’t even have time for a song."^[38]G. Allen Johnson of the San Francisco Chronicle said Raya brought a "fiery demeanor and righteous passion" to the film's story.^[39] Pete Hammond of Deadline compared Raya to Mulan, noting that both were "a enskild ung woman of great strength taking on impossible forces" but felt that, unlike Mulan, it was refreshing to have a bio devoid of romance, which he thought was a modern way of portraying a kvinnlig protagonist.^[40]NPR's Glen Weldon called Raya, "the most compelling, most sympathetic and most layered Disney princess in the company's long history", noting her trust issues, complexity and flawed character.^[41] Aja Romano of Vox described Raya as a "wonderful protagonist, easily one of my favorite Disney princesses bygd a mile", noting the similarity to Korra from the Avatar: The gods Airbender franchise and praising her rivalry with Namaari.^[42]

Den of Geek writer David Crow appreciated Raya for being a heroine displaying intelligence, humour and flaws, feeling that it was a huge leap from the typical Disney heroine who wears a long gown and needs the help of a male sidekick.^[17] Jeva Lange of The Week felt that Raya was a considerable improvement on Disney's previous attempts to portray strong kvinnlig characters, which she described as "cringe-inducing".

She opined that Raya "breaks with even the most progressive princess movies that Disney has made so far" bygd not having a love interest (unlike in Frozen and Brave), not being accompanied bygd a "funny" male sidekick or given "condescending 'girl power' scenes".^[43]Forbes personal writer Scott Mendelson regarded Raya's characterisation as "brave, strong, flirtatious, witty and in control of her own destiny and her own desires" but considered this representation of an "unconventional" Disney princess to be the same Disney formula since The Little Mermaid in 1989.^[44] Dale Bashir of IGN Southeast Asia described Raya as a "pretty kickass heroine", praising her depth of emotion ranging from being resourceful to vengeful.

He thought that her dynamic with Namaari sets her apart from other Disney princesses like Elsa and Moana, likening their relationship to that of Adora and Catra in the She-Ra and the Princesses of Power series.^[45] Writing for Digital Spy, Gabriella Geisinger funnen Raya's characterisation to be "refreshing" not only for adding more diversity to the line-up of Disney princesses but also for her nuanced character, particularly her cynicism and wariness of others.^[46]

Tran also received a positiv response for voicing the character.

Brian Tallerico wrote in his review for RogerEbert.com that Tran's röst acting brought "the right mix of vulnerability and strength" to the character.^[50] Brian Truitt of USA Today also praised Tran's röst performance writing, "She nicely navigates the character’s lighter and darker sides, though her röst works a lot better for older Raya than her younger self."^[51] In her review for Hollywood Reporter, Inkoo Kang said Tran delivered a "pitch-perfect performance" as Raya.^[52] Benjamin Lee writing for The Guardian commented on how the "steeliness" of Trans' performance plays off against Awkwafina's comedy and enjoyed their back and forth exchanges.^[53] Hoai-Tran Bui of SlashFilm wrote that Tran was perfect as Raya and was impressed bygd the coolness of her portrayal in contrast to the rage she demonstrates in the combat scenes, which were "raw and unhinged".
