Companies know that stories matter... and perhaps no company knows it more than Disney. That's why a new report from Florida Politics, presenting Disney as both victim of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, as well as victor of the state of Florida's attempts to stomp them...
Disney’s unusual marketing strategy for Avengers: Doomsday seems to be paying off for Marvel in a big way. Marvel attached a character-focused teaser trailer to Avatar: Fire and Ash screenings over a four-week period. A few days after their theatrical debuts, the teasers were posted online. Insiders have told The Hollywood Reporter that the four teasers for next December’s entry in the MCU have already hit a combined 1.02 billion views across YouTube and social media.
In mid-January 2026, The Walt Disney Company deleted a post from an official social media account after the responses diverged sharply from what the company appeared to intend. Disney had asked its audience to share a quote from a Disney property that reflected how...
Speaking with Deadline in an exit interview, Kathleen Kennedy effectively acknowledged that Indiana Jones has no active future at Lucasfilm following the commercial collapse of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. During the interview, Deadline directly challenged...
As Kathleen Kennedy prepares to exit Lucasfilm, her farewell interview with Deadline reads less like an honest assessment of her tenure and more like a final attempt to rewrite the narrative — one that once again places the blame on Star Wars fans themselves. Rather...
The Walt Disney Company has filed plans to spend $22.4 million to convert the former MuppetVision 3D* theater at Disney’s Hollywood Studios into a new Monsters, Inc.-themed venue. Public records from the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District detail the scope and...
In the latest piece of marketing for Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel has begun streaming the Doomsday Clock. The YouTube video features the now-iconic Avengers A, backlit by something reminiscent of green stained glass — green, of course, being one of the primary colors of the film’s antagonist, Doctor Doom. The only text on the screen reads “Doomsday is Coming.” Accompanied by the sound of a ticking clock, a timer counts down the months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds until the film’s December release.
Call it an unintended consequence of Disney fandom. According to CNN, Chinese e-commerce platforms have seen increasing interest — and prices — for the highly venomous blue Indonesian pit viper following the release of Zootopia 2. Gary De’Snake, a new character voiced by Ke Huy Quan, has become a worldwide phenomenon. Apparently it’s not just Gary merch that Chinese fans want to bring home.
Marvel Studios has begun rolling out character-focused teasers for Avengers: Doomsday, a movie that absolutely must succeed at the box office after a string of uneven Marvel performances. One of the most recent trailers, now circulating after a theatrical leak, prominently features the Fantastic Four—or at least part of them. Notably absent from the latest Avengers: Doomsday trailer, however, is Pedro Pascal.
Is Kathleen Kennedy already out at Lucasfilm? A source for That Park Place says she’s essentially just a figurehead with a meaningless title at this point. And maybe we’re all just waiting for official confirmation she’s moved on when the timing is right for her… and Disney?
The X-Men trailer for Avengers: Doomsday was officially released Tuesday morning. Like the other teases we’ve seen for the upcoming epic, it leans heavily into the one thing the original Avengers films could not — nostalgia.
If you thought the 2025 domestic box office had outperformed the 2024 box office (as had I originally), think again. Only a gluttony of extra films managed to make that picture look like reality. But the truth is a much harsher mistress for cinemas and movie lovers....
At the end of a rough year for the company, Disney had a historic win. Zootopia 2 has become Walt Disney Animation’s highest-grossing movie ever, with $1.46 billion at the global box office. Previously, the record was held by 2019’s Frozen II, with $1.45 billion. While many of the company’s 2025 releases, like Snow White and Captain America: Brave New World, faltered at the box office, Zootopia 2 could provide a template for projects in other franchises.
