What a sensational turn of events for Disney’s newest release! “Descendants: The Rise of Red” set a new record with a staggering 6.7 million views in its first three days on Disney+. This achievement now crowns it as Disney Branded Television’s most-viewed DCOM premiere on the streaming platform—a testament to the gripping allure of the Descendants universe.
This remarkable figure outshines other Disney+ hits. Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” had an impressive 4.6 million views upon its debut earlier this year, but it didn’t quite reach the heights set by “Descendants: The Rise of Red.” This new Descendants installment, casting a spell over young audiences, highlights the potency of Disney+’s family-friendly titles. Although Disney’s data reporting has seen variations, the impact of Red’s rebellious adventures has not gone unnoticed.
The buzz extends well beyond the platform. The film’s soundtrack has already amassed over 26 million streams, and the #Descendants hashtag has garnered over 95 million views in the U.S. alone, with a jaw-dropping 9 billion views worldwide. The magic seemingly follows wherever Descendants touch!
Starring the rebellious Red, daughter of the Queen of Hearts, and Chloe, Cinderella’s ever-so-perfect daughter, this film takes viewers on a thrilling journey. Tasked with undoing the past to prevent a coup in Auradon, the unlikely duo’s time-travel escapades have captured imaginations and hearts alike.
Mark your calendars—this captivating tale will also air on Disney Channel on August 9, promising another wave of enthusiastic viewership. It’s not just the film drawing attention; it’s an entire phenomenon engaging fans globally.
