14. Wish
West Side Story Oscar winner Ariana DeBose shines in Wish, giving a stellar performance as Disney’s newest original heroine. From a script co-written by Frozen co-writer/director and Disney animation head Jennifer Lee, the fairytale mythology that is the root of all Disney films gets its own origin story in a nod to the company’s first 100 years. Also, “This Wish” is one of the strongest of the studio’s signature “I want” songs in recent years.
