Disney BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Disney has had an extraordinary week capping off what's shaping up to be a historic year for the entertainment giant. Zootopia 2 has absolutely obliterated expectations, becoming a genuine cultural phenomenon especially in China where it earned one hundred million dollars in a single day, a feat that even Avengers Endgame couldn't match. The film has already crossed five hundred million dollars globally and is on track to become the highest-grossing film of the year, potentially crossing one billion dollars by mid-December according to MickeyBlog.
The company's momentum extends beyond the box office. Jared Bush, the creative mind behind the original Zootopia and now Disney Animation's new Chief Creative Officer, sat down for an extensive interview revealing that 2028 will mark an inflection point for the studio. Bush hinted at a revolutionary animated project that operates in a non-human world with a dramatically different visual style than Disney's traditional approach, sparking speculation about potential anime-influenced content.
Behind the scenes, Disney is overhauling its creative process. Bush has implemented studio-wide screenings where employees provide candid feedback through an online tool called Noteworthy, allowing filmmakers to course-correct earlier in production rather than waiting for end-stage reviews. This represents a significant shift prompted by recent underperformers like Wish and Elio.
On the theme park front, major announcements are coming rapidly. A Bluey Experience is confirmed for Walt Disney World Resort next year, and Soarin Across America has received an official opening date announcement. Disney is also progressing with the Avengers Campus expansion at Disney California Adventure, featuring an e-ticket attraction called Avengers Infinity Defense that will take guests through MCU locations including Asgard and Wakanda. Meanwhile, Rapunzel's Tower has made its debut at Disneyland Paris, sparking speculation about a live-action Tangled remake potentially starring Scarlett Johansson as Mother Gothel.
Disney Plus subscribers have plenty to anticipate this month with Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2 premiering, Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Final Show, and the highly anticipated Diary of a Wimpy Kid film arriving December fifth.
The Walt Disney Company reported fourth quarter and full year earnings for fiscal 2025 recently, with executives clearly satisfied with the company's trajectory despite earlier stumbles. By any measure, Disney is consolidating its position as Hollywood's undisputed heavyweight.
