Encanto’s Luisa Madrigal Teams Up With Captain Carter in MCU Crossover Art
Encanto's Luisa Madrigal and the MCU's Captain Carter are teaming up in new crossover art. Directed by Jared Bush and Byron Howard, Disney's latest animated feature film tells the story of a multigenerational Colombian family, most of whom possess magical gifts from a miracle that enables them to best serve the people of their community. However, when the family's magic begins to disappear, 15-year-old Mirabel, who does not have a special power, makes it her mission to find out what is happening. Released first in theaters and then on Disney+, Encanto quickly gained commercial success, and its soundtrack, featuring songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda, grabbed the number-one spot on the US Billboard 200, with multiples songs sparking trends across social media platforms.
The character of Luisa is a notable fan-favorite, in large part because of her song «Surface Pressure.» Voiced by Jessica Darrow, the nineteen-year-old older sister of Mirabel has been blessed with the gift of superhuman strength, but finds herself carrying a tremendous burden and is worried about letting her family down. She admits her fears through her song, thus showing audiences just how mentally strong she can be as well, another reason so many people resonate with her. She plays an important role in her family, and Miranda revealed the inspiration behind «Surface Pressure» as being his own sister, crediting her for carrying the pressures attached with being the oldest and apologizing for the tougher hand she was dealt in their childhood.
