Synopsis
In a futuristic kingdom, there's a princess named Jessica who was born with a very unique personality: Expressive, super-intelligent, wondering, thrill-seeking, prank-loving, and artistic. However, her mother has taught her that non of those are the qualities of a princess, and eventually choose to listen to her after a childhood trauma, so she has repressed all of those qualities since her childhood, and none of those has ever returned... until her teenage years, where she suddenly wakes up in strange places, like the museum, or having done things she dosen't recall, such as throwing a pie at her mother. One day, when Jessica was knocked unconscious, she discovered the truth: The trauma and the long supressing of her qualities has caused Jessica to develop seven separate personalities: Cynical, Prankster, Genius, Extreme, Pessimist, Wonder, and Artist. While each personality cares for the other, they just can't work together due to their disitinct actitudes and/or actions. However, Jessica must make her alternative selves work together when a threat comes to their kingdom.

Plot
The film opens with a montage of the inhabitants of a futuristic Native American tribe doing their everyday things. A voice-over narrator notes how, in spite of what it seems, those people have "a few other sides that they kept hidden". The narrator claims she says this because she "has first hand knowledge on the matter". The scene then moves to the kingdom's castle, more precisely, to the room of Jessica, the young daughter of the tribe's Chief. The narrator then reveals herself as Jessica, and reflects how her infancy seemed "so simple", and how she didn't knew "what was coming next". She then proceeds to tell that, when she was very young, she was quite different from the other heirs: She had an interest in science and high-level knowledge, loved pranks and art of all kinds, had an interest in danger and adventures, was very curious, and expressed very openly her feelings. This caused conflicts with her mother, Queen Marhta, who was against her "non-heir-like behavior", but neverthless loved each other. One day when she was young, however, while doing an experiment in secret, she chose to use it for a prank, leading to a chain of events that almost got her mother killed specially since her behavior kept putting her in trouble. Horrfied at the thougth that she almost killed her mother, she tearfully says to her that she was right, and promises to supress her personality aspects.

As the years go by, Jessica adopted personality traits similar to those of other heirs to thrones, and never once behaving like she did in her childhood. By her adolscence, Jessica is a formal heir like any other, and displays shame and disgust for her childhood self, saying that the behavior then was "not the person she was meant to be". Her kingdom is also facing a mysterous threat and, if that wasn't enough, she is also secertly plagged with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder following her childhood traume. One day, she wakes up early to got to a "Heir Summer Camp" where she wil learn more about being her future responsabilities. Jessica then narrates how she "knew that moment her life was going to change, but didn't knew how it would". The day after arriving to the camp, the princesses receive a tour througth the camp, including the "cultural appreciation museum", where they will learn to appreciate cultures from other countries. Once there, Jessica finds a brush, and takes it, wondering who it belongs to. Suddenly she begins to feel disconnected from her body, with everybody seemingly moving faster than her and Jessican not being able to control all the actions of her own body, before closing her eyes.

When Jesica opens her eyes again, she discovers that she's back in her room. She at first assumes that she just fainted and was taken back to recover. However, once she leaves her room, the other princesses suddenly begin to talk about some works of art she seemingly made. Jessica is left confused by this, as she does not recall having done them. The head of the camp then shows up, and berates Jessica for her behavior. Jessica then begins to feel angry, until she suddenly feels disconnected from her once again, and blacks out once more. This time, she wakes up in the kitchen, with a coffee cup in her hand. The other girls then call her, commenting on how "volatile" she seems to be, telling her that "she changed from reserved to cynical in a snap". She begins to worry and panic on why these black outs are happening to her, ironically causing her to have another one. This time, she wakes up in an alley at the camp while eating ice cream. As the days go by, she tries to keep herself calm, but the black outs keep happening.

By the next month, the camp has ended, and Jessica hopes that she may find a solution for the black outs back home, but they keep and keep happening. While initially wanting to just ignore them, she soon reaches her limits when she wakes up after being shot by a cannon. Finally panickng but at the same time trying to keep herself calm, she tries to go to her room and calm herself down once again. However, she suddenly begins hearing voices insider her head, causing her to run inside her room and reclutantly ignore her mother as she was going to confront her for her behavior. In spite of her attempts to keep herself relaxed, the voices keep sounding in her head, causing her to panic and accidentally slip with one of her dog, Fluffy's, toys, to the ground, knocking her out.

As Jessica wakes up, she fears that she may have experienced another black out, only to realize that she's in an unfamiliar place. She then finds a note that says tgat she has to play a jack-in-the-box, which she does. The supposed jack-in-the-box then begins to talk to her, not realizing she scared Jessica until noticizing her blank expression. She apologizes to Jessica for scaring her, noting that she should have thougth that througth. Suddenly, a little girl and a living drawing on a blackboard would appear, wondering why did they "brougth Jessica to her house". The two would briefly argue, while Jessica would try to escape. However, upon leaving, she's shocked to see that she's in a psychodelic version of her kingdom.

The living drawing on a blackboard would then tell her that its not real, so she dosen't worry about her kingdom. Jessica would demand an explication on what is happening, to which the living drawing reveals the truth: She has Dissociative Identity Disorder, the drawing on a blackboard is an intelligent personality of hers named Genius Jessica, the jack-in-a-box is a prank-loving personality named Prankster Jessica, the little girl is a curious personality named Wondr jessica, and that they are in their "inner world", a space where different personalities can interact. Genius Jessica would then take her on a tour througth their inner world, where Jessica meets the other personalities in her system: Artist, a passionate painter and musician with an artistic look; Pessimistic, a depressed pessimist who resembles a living bunch of water; Cynical, a girl with a cynical actitude who resembles a living lava-made creature; and Extreme, an strechae and durable girl with a love for danger and adventures. During the tour, Genius Jessica would explain to Jessica that she developed DID due to her traumatic experience as a child, that her personalities personify an aspect or emotion that she suppresed after the incident, and that the alters' appearances are merely how they seem on their inner world, while their body remains externaly the same.

Voice cast
A princess with seven alternative personalities, all whom must learn to work together in order to protect their kingdom. Director Nyla Innuksuk said that "her alternative selves here work as an alegory for teamwork, coping with trauma, and self-acceptance", and that "while in other films somebody has to overcome his or her other personality, she has to embrace them here". Eric Goldberg would serve as the director of animation for Jessica's Genius persona, which would manifest in their mind as a drawing on a blackboard, while Bruce W. Smith would serve as the supervising animator for Jessica's Artist persona when she manifests to Jessica as an imaginary graffiti. An incarnation of Jessica's curiousity in the form of a little child. Innuksuk would define her relationship with Jessica as "the heart of the story", as well as the Wonder persona being "the heart of the system".
 * Anna Lambe as Jessica:
 * TBA as Wonder Jessica:


 * Irene Bredard as Martha, the queen of a futuristic kingdom and Jessica's mother, who wants her daughter to supress her unique qualities.


 * Nive Nielsen as Alexandra, a conqueror with a joy for her evil deeds, who tries to take over Jessica's kingdom. Nielsen would say that her perfornance "draws inspiration from Professor Ratigan, but with a little bit of Joker in there too". However, Innuksuk would add that the writers "didn't wanted her to feel too much like the Joker", so they would write her as "not someone who does evil witha sadistic sense of humor, but rather someone who displays joy and fun ayt her evil deeds". Innuksuk, Nielsen and the filmmakers would also "not make her tell a joke every time she does something bad, but instead displayus her joy througth other ways, such as her voice tone. her movements, etc".
 * Bill Farmer as Fluffy, Jessica's pet dog. The character would be depicted as a silent comic relief character in a similar vein to Pascal and Maximus. Executive producer Dana Terrace would describe him as "basically Pluto in a Looney Tunes cartoon".

Additionally, Producer Osnat Shurer would provide the voice of the head of the Princess Summer Camp. Alan Tudyk would voice Alexandra's captain, while John Kassir would voice Alexandra's ship's computer system. Corey Burton would voice the captain of the soldiers at Jessica's kingdom. Director Nyla Innuksuk, Grey DeLisle, Cree Summer, Tress MacNeille, and Jessica DiCcico would voice the girls at the Princess Summer Camp. Jeff Bennet would make a voice cameo as a delivery boy. Tom Kenny would voice one of Alexandra and David's soldiers.

Development
In January 2026, Nyla Innuksuk would reveal that she is writing and directing an animated film at Walt Disney Animation Studios "that takes a concept that Hollywood has used for years, and uses it on a way that audiences never expected, but still leaves them very impressed". In June 2026, it would be announced that the film Innuksuk would working on would be titled Divided. It would also be announced that the film would center on a princess with seven different personalities facing a threat to her kingdom. Innuksuk would state that, while "[she] was aware of how Hollywood loves to use Disssociative Identity Disorder for horror and thriller movies, [she] feels that the concept has potential for a more emotional and sincere story".

In November 1, 2026, it would be reported that Meg LeFauve has joined the film as co-writer and co-director. Producer Osnat Shurer would explain that "LeFauve was one of the writers for Inside Out, and [Lee] felt that her joining the film helps give the film and Inside Out tone to the story, which would really help it to stand from the crowd". In November 20, 2026, Innuksuk would explain that "[she] wants the film to be as far from a horror movie as possible" and that "[she] wants to potray the good side of DID, and how people can live with it in real life. Its fun sides, its tragic parts, how they have to learn to work together, and, ultimately, the fact that that people with DID have somebody they can lean on".

In January 2027, Victoria Strousse would reveal that she joined the film as a co-writer alongside Lee and LeFauve. Strousse would say that "[she] wants the film to have a little bit of Finding Dory 's sensibility towards those with mental incapacities", while Innuksuk would say that "Finding Dory is the exact reason [she] hired Strousse in the first place".

Writing
In order to "avoid the mistakes of past movies", Disney would hire several psyschiatrists and therapists to form a "Pyschiatric Story Group", similar to Moana 's "Oceanic Story Group". The filmmakers would consult with the group on Divided 's potrayal and sensivity towards DID, with Innuksuk pitching them scenes and concepts, to which the group would provide her with feedback and notes. They would also be consuted for the film's humor, which Innuksuk would explain would be because "[she] dosen't want to paint DID as something to be laughed at. [She wants] the film to be lighthearted, but not offensive. This is a serious mental illness, it comes from painful experiences, but [she] also want[s] the film to have the scenes that can make the audience laugh. So the Psychiatric Story Group was very involved with how to approach that humor". Additionally, Disney would hire therapist Paula McHugh, psychiatrist Garrett Marie Deckel, and psychologist and psychoanalyst Sheldon Itzkowitz to serve as co-producers on the film. According to Innuksuk, the investigation and support from the Psychiatrist Story Group "really helped to concieve the story and what kind of story [the filmmakers] wanted to tell".

Innuksuk would cite Ice Age and Disney's Zootopia as inspirations for the film's "buddy comedy tone", as well as John Burne's Fantastic Four run for the dynamic between Jessica's personalities. She would also describe The Muppet Movie (1979) as an inspiration for the film's handling of Jessica's personalities.

Not wanting the personalities to be "generic", the writers would come up with several different characteristics to create them, with Extreme Jessica being described by Innuksuk as "a girl who is as happy simply rolling a skateboard fast as being in a grand adventure. A sort of combination between an excitable teenager and an Indiana Jones type of character", while the Cynical persona would be inspired by both "a goth teenager" and Rocket Raccoon from Guardians of the Galaxy (2014). The Wonder persona would be inspired by the childs of several crew members, and the Prankster persona would be inspired by "both pranksters, clowns, and Inside Out's Joy". Additionally, the Pessimistic persona would be "a combination of a pessimistic person and a deppresive one, but througth the use of what makes them different rather than what makes them similar", with the Artist persona being "a combination of all kinds of artists, not just those who paint but also musical artists, sculptors, etc.", and Genius being inspired by real life scientists such as Marie Curie, as well as making her "more of a visual gag sort of character than the typical 'you don't get what i'm saying' or 'mad scientist' sort of girl". The writers would also gave each personality their oiwn unique characterisitcs, such as Genius being an otaku.

According to Innuksuk, the writers would write each personality "with having one purpose: To show Jess how to live her life. Her Artist persona would show her the beauty in everything. Her Pessimistic self, the importance of sadness. Her Cynical self, to face reality. Her Prankster self, how to have fun in her life. Her Genius persona, the importance of keep going. Her Extreme self, how to take risks and be brave. And her wonder persona, how life can become a wonderful and magical place by combining all that".

Througth the characters are depicted as Inuit, their ethnic wouldn't be crucial to the story. However, Innuksuk would neverthless aim to "have the feeling and spirit of a Native American story". She would also add Inuit language during casual conversations between Native American characters, and would feature several visual elements reminiscent of Inuit culture.

Casting and recording
In December 2026, it would be reported that Anna Lambe would be in talks to voice Jessica, a princess with seven alternative personalities, in the film as its leads. Lambe would be confirmed to have joined the project the following month. In July 2027, it would be reported that Irene Bredard has joined the film's voice cast as Jessica's mother, Martha, respectively. In December 2027, it would be reported that Niva Nielsen had joined the cast as the film's main antagonist.

According to director Nyla Innuksuk, Lambe would ocassionally record separately her lines for each personality for scenes in which they all talk at the same time. Lambe would also add-lib several of her lines during recording, mosy notably lines involving Inupiaq language.

Animation
Two different animation teams would be made for Divided: one that works on scenes set on the real world and one working on scenes at Jessica's inner world. Director Nyla Innuksuk would explain that the different teams would be made in order to catch the "different feels" of each scenario. Innuksuk would describe the work of comic book artist and Disney Legend Jack Kirby as "a big influence" on the design of Jessica's inner world.

Different character models would be made for each of Jessica's personas when they are in their inner world, with producer Osnat Shurer explaining that Disney "wanted to take advantage of the media of animation and make sure the personas really incarnate visually the aspect of Jessica that they are meant to represent" while in their mind. Animation supervisor Jennifer Hagen would describe both Te-Ka from Moana (2016) and Hades from Hercules (1997) as "big influences" on Jessica's Cynical persona's design. The animators would create a new animation software named Group in order for the different animation styles to be used for a same scene.

Hand-drawn animation would be used througth the film, with Lauren MacMullen serving as director of animation. Jessica's Genius persona would be designed as a hand-drawn animated drawing on a chalkboard, which Innuksuk would explain would be done in order to "further give the character this all-knowing feeling and be funny at the same time". Kendra Vander Vlie twould serve as Jessica's Genius persona's supervising animator. Vlie wpuld be hired dye to her work on the "Short Circuit" Downtown, which also featured "a very livid 2D character". Hand-drawn animation would also be used when Genius Jessica is co-conscious and helps another personality with a plan. Vlie would draw inpiration from the visual style used in the "The Backson Song" sequence from Winnie the Pooh (2011), for her work on the film.

Additionally, hand-drawn animation would be used for the film's "Personal Room" sequences, with Natalie Nourigat serving as supervising animator. The sequences' animation would be strongly influenced by Inuit art, with Innuuksuk describing it as "the best way to implement Inuit culture in the film". Innuksuk would explain that she wanted to explore Jessica's emotional pain througth visuals because she feels that "in animation, images speak louder than words", and that she would ask for hand-drawn animation for the sequences because "it has a power and level for visual storytelling that CG effects simply lack". Nourigat would partially base her work on the Fantasia 2000 segment "The Firebird Suite".

Artist Jessica would be animated using the Meaner system utilized in the shorts Paperman (2012), Feast (2014), and Inner Workings (2016). Innuksuk would feel that, since Artist Jessica "is a representation of Jessica's love for all the forms of art, including painting", it would be natural for her to "look like she came straight out of a painting", througth she would choose to use the Meaner system instead of hand-drawn animation in order to evoke that feeling while at the same time "standing apart from the Genius persona". According to Innuksuk, the design for Artist Jessica would be inspired by both Inuit paintings and the DC Superhero Girls version of DC superhero Zatanna.

A new animation software, named Transition, would be created in order to animate scenes in which Jessica changes from one persona to another. Innuksuk would explain that, based on declarations from the Psychiatric Story Group that a person's body has slight changes according to which persona is in control, the animators would create the Transition software in order for Jessica's body to "change slightly, but at the same time noticeably" when another of her personas takes control.

The design of Jessica's kingdom would be inspired by Tokyo, Japan, as the filmmakers would want a "100% futuristic style" for the kingdom. Star Wars and Star Trek would also serve as inspirations for the design of Jessica's kingdom. The animators would also use the animation for the "Short Circuit" short Downtown (2020) for the background in order to further convey a futuristic feeling. The animators would aim for a more photorealistic look in order to "give it a different feel than Jessica's inner world". The filmmakers would consult with inventors and mechanics in order to "create machines that felt they could exist in a few years".

Music
Kris Bowers would compose the film's score, which would feature Inuit chants and vocals composed and arranged by Andrew Balfour. Bowers would create a score that "didn't focused a lot on the psychological concept, but more on the heart and fun in the story. And with a little bit of the psychological stuff because it still plays a role in the movie", and that "it would have a very philosophical and tragic feel to it". Bowers would describe Jessica and her alters' theme as "super dynamic", as he has to change it in order to represent each personality "yet still keeping a same vibe in order to make clear that they are part of the same being". Bowers would compose an "strict" theme for Martha, and a "dangerous theme" for Alexandras with a "circus-like melody" to represent her pleasure for her evil deeds and insanity.

Bowers would also produce and curate a soundtrack featuring songs for the film, which would be performefd by several artists including Tiw Savage, Mr Eazi, Beyoncé, Andy Grammer, Will.i.am, and X Ambassadors. Bowers would compare the film's soundtrack to the soundtrack for Sony Pictures Animation's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), in the sense that "it has songs that work perfectly well as pure pop songs to listen in the radio, but at the same time fit perfectly with the film's story". Bowers and Glenn Slater would also co-write an end-credits song for the film, which would be perforned by John Legend.

Disney would also produce and release Divided Music, a curated soundtrack featuring covers of 9 pop culture songs performed by artists such as Kesha and SZA. According to Bowers, the soundtrack would be created due to "a desire of Disney to find ways to promote the film througth its concept. And when the studio found pop culture songs that matched the main characters here, they choose to create a soundtrack with songs like those being featured".

Reception
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film would have an approval rating of 89%, with an average rating of 8/10, based on 227 reviews. The website's critical consensus would read, "Thanks to a light-hearted tone and a great story about self-acceptance and teamwork, Disney's Divided manages to tackle the theme of split personalities in a stye that distinguish itself from other movies thanks to its wonderful voice acting, awesome visuals, charm, and timeless appeal". On Metacritic, the film would have a weighted rating of 79 ot of 100, based on 44 reviews, indicating "generally positive reviews".

Animated series
An animated television series set after the events of the film, also titled Divided, would be produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios, and created by director Nyla Innuksuk and Bruce W. Smith. Thompson, Lambe and Bredard would reprise their roles from the film, while Kris Bowers would return to compose the score. The series would center on the individual lives of Jessica and her other personalities, and how those lives affect the other personalities and their relationships. According to Inuksuk, the series would be created because she would feel that, while the film explored well the friendship between Jessica's personas, it mostly told "Jessica's story", while a TV show would allow the other personalities to be further explored, and to tell stories from each persona's point of view.

Shorts
A series of shorts, titled Divided Mind, would be released in late 2032 on Disney+. Set between the animated series' first and second seasons, the shorts would show the mishaps of Mary's personas while inside their inner world. Nyla Innuksuk would return as writer and director, while Lambe would reprise her role as Jessica's personas, and Kris Bowers would return to compose the score.

A second short series, titled Genius Jessica's Guide Througth DID, would be released througth 2033 alongside several Disney-distribuited films. The short series would consist of public service announcements in which Genius Jessica explains to the audience about real-life Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Sequel
In January 2034, it would be reported that a sequel to Divided is in development, with Nyla Innuksuk set to return as director and co-writer alongside Victoria Strousse and Meg LeFauve, and Osnat Shurer returning as producer, while Lambe and Bredard would be set to reprise their roles. The plot would reportedly focus on "Jessica and her personalities going throught a kingdom-wide mystery following the emergence of a new personality".
