‘Hexed’ Has Legs: Disney’s First Clip Conjures a Giant Centipede Monster

Disney’s Hexed has a giant centipede to introduce you to. The first clip from the animated adventure offers a little creepy-crawly magic ahead of its November 25 theatrical release.

The scene follows Billie, voiced by Hailee Steinfeld (Sinners, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), as she makes her way through a muddy swamp. She attempts to use her magic to create a path, but instead conjures a monstrous centipede. Billie walks across the creature before it rises into the air, bringing the clip to an end.

It’s a little taste of the horror-adjacent territory this movie appears to be exploring, and that’s what has my attention. Hexed looks like it could be a fun gateway-horror movie—something my kid might enjoy watching alongside The Nightmare Before Christmas or Hocus Pocus. We’ll be keeping an occasional eye on this one as Disney reveals more of its witches and creatures.

Watch the clip below.

According to Disney’s synopsis, Billie is an impulsive, unconventional teenager whose newly discovered magical abilities send her out of suburbia and into Hexe, a vast realm of witches. She must team up with her cautious mother, Alice, as they uncover family mysteries with consequences for the entire witch world.

Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation) voices Alice, with Tracey Ullman (Into the Woods) as an enchanted feather pen named Ms. Quill and Stephen Fry (The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug) as the magical journal Elias Quire.
