Disney has a real gift for marketing. First, they have the best catalog of animated movies, like, EVER. Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast - you see what I mean. Well, it's not good enough for Disney to rest on their old school laurels, they came up with a new generation of characters to make their old movies relevant again. They came up the Disney Descendants series.

The Disney Descendants series catches up with the kids of evil Disney villains who have been banished to an island by the son of Disney princess Belle and Beast who have married and set up a kingdom and thrown all the evil villains and their offspring onto the Isle of the Lost.

Hey, it's Disney and they needed a new franchise.
