Encanto: Lin-Manuel Miranda Explains Bruno Song Absence At Oscars
Lin-Manuel Miranda explains his decision not to submit Encanto's hit song «We Don't Talk About Bruno» for consideration at the Academy Awards. Directed by Jared Bush, Byron Howard, and Charise Castro, Encanto premiered in November 2021 for a brief theatrical run and was later released on Disney+ on December 24. Its original score was composed by Germaine Franco while Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote the film's original songs. The animated musical comedy tells the story of Mirabel Madrigal (voiced by Stephanie Beatriz), a Colombian teenager who must overcome her family's expectations as the only Madrigal without a magical gift.
