Who Is Billie Doe From Disney’s ‘Hexed’?
Voiced by Hailee Steinfeld, Billie Doe is a 16-year-old girl who has always felt a little misunderstood, particularly by her overprotective mother, Alice, voiced by Rashida Jones.
Everything changes when Billie discovers she has magical abilities that her mother has been keeping secret since she was little. Her discovery leads her into Hexe, a colorful world of witches and magic, where Alice follows her.
What starts as an unexpected adventure becomes a journey for the mother and daughter as they uncover family secrets and begin to understand each other in ways they never have before.
The film also features Jodie Foster as Queen Celeste, a powerful witch who sees Billie as a threat, and Walton Goggins as Beef Roger Crummchuk, a three-eyed cat who reluctantly joins Billie and Alice on their adventure.
Disney’s Hexed is directed by Fawn Veerasunthorn and Jason Hand, with Josie Trinidad serving as co-director. The screenplay comes from Jared Bush and Dana Ledoux Miller.
According to Disney’s recent feature on the film, the filmmakers wanted the relationship between Billie and her mother to be at the heart of the story, even with all the magical adventures happening around them.
When Can Guests Meet Billie at Disney Parks?
Here’s what Disney has confirmed so far:
- Disneyland Resort: Beginning November 20, 2026
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios: Beginning November 25, 2026
