Rosalie is a relative newcomer to Hollywood, having only appeared in a couple of short films before landing her role in Turning Red. And not only is the Pixar flick the 16-year-old's first major motion picture, but it's also her first credited voice acting role.
And Sandra Oh, who portrays Mei's mom Ming.
You probably know Sandra from her notable acting career which has included roles on Grey’s Anatomy as well as Killing Eve and The Chair.
Mei's dad Jin is voiced by Orion Lee.
Orion's acting career has included a wide range of roles on television in shows like Critical, Tyrant, and Informer. He also recently had a leading role in the drama film, First Cow, and has appeared in other movies like Justice League and Star Wars: Episode VIII — The Last Jedi.
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan serves as the voice of Priya.
Fans will recognize Maitreyi as the star of Never Have I Ever, Mindy Kaling's hit Netflix series which was recently renewed for a fourth season. And this isn't Maitreyi's first time voice acting either, as she also voiced Zipp Storm in the My Little Pony: Make Your Mark series.
Ava Morse voices Miriam.
Ava portrays Miriam in the flick and is another newcomer to the entertainment industry. She's previously guest starred in Chicago P.D. and Somebody Somewhere and even had a voice role in Ron’s Gone Wrong.

Finally, boyband 4*Town features the voices of Jordan Fisher, who plays Robaire, and Finneas, who plays Jesse.
