Keep reading for a look at all the major characters in "Raya and the Last Dragon" and who voices them.
Raya is the princess of Heart. She's played by by Loan Tran, best known as Kelly Marie Tran.
In "Raya and the Last Dragon," the once-united land of Kumandra has been split into five lands, each named for a part of a dragon. Raya and her father are the rulers of Heart, and guardians of the Dragon Gem.
"Star Wars" fans will recognize Loan (who also goes by Kelly Marie) Tran as Rose Tico, a character first introduced in "The Last Jedi."
Tuk Tuk is Raya's animal companion. He's played by Alan Tudyk
Tuk Tuk is "part pill bug, part pug," according to Disney. He doesn't actually speak, but his animal noises were created by voice actor Alan Tudyk, who has appeared in other Disney movies like "Moana" and "Frozen."
Raya's father is Chief Benja. He's voiced by Daniel Dae Kim.
Chief Benja rules the Heart land, but wishes to reunite all of the lands and let them become Kumandra once again.
Actor Daniel Dae Kim is perhaps best known for his starring role on ABC's "Lost," and more recently had roles in Netflix's "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" and the rom-com "Always Be My Maybe."
The Mighty Sisudatu, aka 'Sisu,' is the eponymous last dragon, played by Awkwafina.
Sisu is credited for saving humanity 500 years prior to the events of the movie when she created a magical gem to ward off the Druun (a plague-like force that turns anyone they touch into stone).
Awkwafina had a role in the blockbuster hit movie "Crazy Rich Asians," and also costarred in "Ocean's Eight." She won a Golden Globe for her starring role in 2019's "The Farewell."
Virana, the chief of Fang, is played by Sandra Oh.
Fang is known as a nation of assassins who love cats, and Virana is a fierce and pragmatic ruler.
Actress Sandra Oh is beloved by all "Grey's Anatomy" fans for playing Cristina Yang, and more recently for her Emmy-nominated role in "Killing Eve."
Virana's daughter is the princess Namaari, who is played by Gemma Chan.
Namaari is just about the same age as Raya. The two first met as younger girls when all the lands come together for a great meeting.
Gemma Chan also costarred in "Crazy Rich Asians," as well as 2019's "Captain Marvel." She'll appear in another upcoming Marvel film, "Eternals."
The Spine Chief is voiced by Ross Butler.
When Chief Benja brings all the different lands together, you briefly hear from the Spine Chief.
Actor Ross Butler is known for his teen-focused TV projects, like "Teen Wolf," "Riverdale," "13 Reasons Why," and most recently the third "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" movie.
And the Tail Chief is voiced by Patti Harrison.
Like the Spine Chief, the Tail Chief is only briefly seen in the beginning of the movie.
Patti Harrison is a comedian and actor who has appeared in hit shows like "Search Party," "Shrill," and the comedy-sketch Netflix series "I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson."
Boun, played by Izaac Wang, is the captain of the 'Shrimp-orium' boat.
Raya and Sisu find Boun in a key time of need, and he becomes one of their allies.
Thirteen-year-old actor Izaac Wang's had a role in the 2019 R-rated comedy "Good Boys," which costarred "Room" actor Jacob Tremblay.
The 'con baby' who tricks Raya is voiced by Thalia Tran.
Her name is "Little Noi" but Raya calls her "Con Baby" most of the time. Raya finds Little Noi when she visits the Talon land.
Talia Tran is another newcomer to the Hollywood scene. She appeared in the 2019 comedy "Little" and the 2020 TV series "Council of Dads."
Tong is a warrior from the Spine land. He's voiced by Benedict Wong.
Tong is the guardian of the gem in Spine, and is another new friend Raya meets during her journeys.
Actor Benedict Wong is another Marvel star, appearing as Wong in "Doctor Strange" and "Avengers: Infinity War." He also had a voice role alongside Awkwafina in the Netflix series "The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance."
