NEW PROJECTS

Oswald the Stupid Lucky Rabbit (releasing February 2027)
In a greedy corporate move nobody saw coming, Disney has officially greenlit a new three-episode miniseries about one of the most stupidest Disney pioneer characters of all time, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit who was originally created in 1923-1927 and was a prototype mascot so bad that they deserve it to get copyright striked by Universal Pictures. The new terrible series is a 2D/live-action hybrid created, produced, written and directed by Jon Fayreau and slated to release in February. The series is going to fail and get cancelled and purged from Disney+ immeadiately as nobody gives a damn about Oswald anymore. In the years since, everyone in Hollywood has declared Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse to be the truth birthchildren of Disney's empire as Walt Disney himself said so in October 1954.

DisneyNature Lion (releases August 20, 2026)
From a terrible Disney project to a profeesional one named by the same guy, Jon Fayreau has also been concepting the new documentary series in the DisneyNature brand.

The next Disney live-action remake ripoff nobody asked for is upon us with the upcoming real life adventure story based on Disney's first CGI Disney Princess movie Tangled based on the classic story of the Brothers Grimm's Rapunzel starring the voice cast led by Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi. However, many people consider this to be some sort of clickbait as the film is being released on the weekend of the dreaded April Fools Day prank holiday with April 1st being on a Saturday that year.

Ono Ghost Market (March 10, 2028)
Pixar's newest original film is the first of its kind as Pixar CEO Pete Doctor unveiled the launch of the Disney CGI pioneer's first musical and supernatural adventure.

The film is slated for March 2028.

Clay (November 22, 2028)
Following the climax of the Frozen quadrilogy, Disney steps into the world of claymation for the first time ever though the claymation launch is too late as they already have been making claymation and stopmotion content since the days of JoJo's Circus in September 2003.
