Although this is a rumor article, based on sources I've communicated with, it's likely not a surprise to readers. Indeed, other articles were out there last week discussing the situation similarly, likely due to some leak put out there by Disney or Kennedy. We've Got...

Disney Resurrects Controversial “Reimagine Tomorrow” Program
The Walt Disney Company has resurrected the Reimagine Tomorrow Program after having previously scrubbed it from their public and private webpages. Despite the outward changes to "soften" the language, it does not appear that the company has changed the original...
Mainstream Media Get to Work Protecting Shang-Chi
Let's just get straight to the truth: Shang-Chi may be the biggest bomb Marvel has ever produced. That's tough to say after Black Widow just bombed at the box office, yet still is being litigated because its star actress claims to have been cut out of the profits via...
Indiana Jones 5 Still Not Filming While Harrison Ford Heals
It feels good to be right, even though it's no fun for the team behind Indiana Jones in this case. Just as I reported at That Park Place last month, Harrison Ford continues to be on a long-term sabbatical from filming Indiana Jones 5 due to his injury. And, unlike...
Jon Favreau Concerned About Deep Fake Technology
In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, producer of The Mandalorian, Jon Favreau, has expressed concern about deep fake technology. While Favreau is excited about the possibilities of being able to produce essentially any image and recreate any actor digitally,...
Actors Equity Association Reaches Vaccine Mandate Agreement with Disney Parks
The Actors Equity Association has reached an agreement with Disney Parks to have their live performance workers be vaccinated by the end of September. As we covered earlier this week, the number of live performers still working for Disney is dramatically lower than it...
The Great Disney Parks Reset: The End of Live Entertainment
I have never seen The Walt Disney Company in a situation such as what we are witnessing at this very moment. With Disney+ secretly faltering behind the scenes, and subscription numbers flatlining (at best) in western markets, the company is preparing to extract every...
Lightning Lane Is Just the Beginning for Disney’s Genie+ Monetization
It's a tough day to write about something like theme parks or entertainment. In fact, it's been a tough week. Every day, the news has been filled with worse and worse information from Afghanistan, to the point that it fills any moral person with pure shame. It has...
Boo Bash at Magic Kingdom Is a Significant Downgrade
The Boo Bash has arrived at Magic Kingdom, although frankly I've never understood the idea of celebrating anything Halloween-related before Labor Day. That said, there are significant downgrades from Mickey's Not So Spooky Halloween, and we've got one major example to...
Scarlett Johansson’s Tower of Terror Movie Likely Over
It was just a short time ago that Scarlett Johansson's opportunity to direct a Disney movie was making front page headlines. In part, the reason was to draw more market attention to Black Widow (a movie which is now on track to lose $100 million). The announced Tower...
James Gunn Leads a Devastating Box Office Weekend
As we discussed last week on That Park Place, there's no good news in sight for the film industry. The summer has been brutal, with headlines often misleading the fact that many supposed blockbusters for 2021 have turned into some of the biggest flops in the history...
Overwatch League Losing Sponsors Hurts the Innocent
Talk about hitting them while they're down! Overwatch is a game that has prided itself in signaling virtue at every convenient point without ever doing anything that could draw ire from China or other despotic governments. The game has the (arguably) two greatest...
