Descendants is an American media franchise centered on a series of Disney Channel musical fantasy films directed by Kenny Ortega and created by Josann McGibbon and Sara Parriott.

The franchise takes place in a world that serves as a continuation of the Disney animated classic films. Starring Dove Cameron, Cameron Boyce, Sofia Carson and Booboo Stewart, each film chronicles the lives of the teenage children of four Disney Villains on the Isle of the Lost, and their move to the kingdom of Auradon at the request of the teenage son of Queen Belle and King Beast. The first film was released as a Disney Channel Original Movie in July 2015. Following its success, a sequel was put into production and premiered across six Disney-owned networks in July 2017. In August 2019, a third film premiered on Disney Channel. Each film was accompanied by original music; the soundtrack for the first film peaked at number one in the United States, the second peaked at number six, and the third peaked at number seven. A spin-off film, Descendants: The Rise of Red, starring Kylie Cantrall and Malia Baker, is set to be released on Disney+ on July 12, 2024.
