When you combine the beauty of our favorite Disney films and Annie Leibovitz’s world-renowned talent in photography, nothing but pure magic is bound to come out as a result. And magical is exactly the word to use to describe these amazing Disney-themed portraits that feature some of the biggest celebrities today.
The first three images were actually released way back in January 2007 and featured Scarlette Johansson (as Cinderella), Beyonce (as Alice), and David Beckham (as Prince Philip). This Disney-Leibovitz partnership continued on over the years even after the promotional project for which she was hired for–and the most recent of portraits features Jessica Chastain as Merida from the blockbuster animated film “Brave“.
Each picture really tells a story and this couldn’t be truer for these photos below. So go ahead, check them out, and witness the unparalleled magic that we all grew up with.
