An Encanto Song Had Taika Waititi Sliding Into Lin-Manuel Miranda's DMs

Writer-director Taika Waititi slid into Lin-Manuel Miranda's DMs to praise the songwriter's hit song "We Don't Talk About Bruno." The song premiered in the Jared Bush-directed Encanto, which wasn't entirely successful at the box office but widely so as a streamer on Disney +, becoming the fastest movie to reach 200 million streaming hours on the platform. Even more successful and ubiquitous, however, was the musical's vibrant soundtrack. The film won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film while being nominated for best score and original song. "We Don't Talk About Bruno," becoming a sleeper hit after the film's release, is the longest-reigning chart-topper for Disney in US Billboard Hot 100 history.
