important and about time,” says Fisher, 44, of Disney’s less-thantraditional take on the subject. “I just loved the moment where my character makes the point that one could have a happy ending, that doesn’t involve a prince and a castle and a dress.

“I’m really proud of Disney for making a movie like this. I really hope families sit down and watch it and rethink the pressures that we put ourselves under to conform.”

Fisher believes Godmothered challenges archaic perceptions of happiness. “Just all the negative stereotypes that go along with fairytales,” says Fisher.

“There’s a bunch of stuff that we don’t really think [about]. This toxic masculinity of a prince having to slay a dragon – he can’t be vulnerable either.”

Fisher’s enthusiasm is shared by fellow actress Bell, 36. “II think it’s so important for little ones to realise they don’t have to grow up so quickly and find romantic love or that they can find that through many different relationships. I think it’s a beautiful message to put out that love can mean anything.”
