À propos de cet audio
Disney is riding a major wave of announcements, financial shifts, and the usual dose of theme park glamour as September begins. The company just punctuated its summer schedule with a $1 billion box office hit—the live-action Lilo and Stitch—which debuted last week on Disney Plus, drawing instant attention across streaming circles. Next up, the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building drops September 9, and comes as Disney touts a robust pipeline to keep investors happy after those quarterly numbers, with new content like Marvel Zombies and the Chad Powers comedy landing soon according to Nasdaq. Social media is flooded with promo teasers, cast interviews, and Disney Plus hype, notably for Lilo and Stitch and the new streaming bundles with Hulu, making digital chatter almost nonstop.
Business-wise, ESPN, Disney's sports powerhouse, is making headlines with the brand new ESPN Unlimited subscription, which rolled out at the end of August and marks a big bet on sports streaming for the company. ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro is fielding tough questions at this week's Bank of America conference, with Wall Street watching closely to see how the new strategy is panning out. Meanwhile, the company agreed to pay a $10 million settlement to the FTC after allegations surrounding kids' privacy violations surfaced, a move covered by the Los Angeles Times and likely to have long-term compliance ripples across its digital platforms.
The parks division made a splash at Orlando's Destination D23 fan event, where news of new lands, ride makeovers, and movie tie-ins set social media and fan blogs abuzz. On the West Coast, Disneyland is celebrating its 70th anniversary with changes reflecting the Avengers Campus expansion and the anticipated arrival of the Avatar experience, while the Halloween Half Marathon brings a temporary early entry schedule shakeup this week, a detail tracked by Disney Fanatic. But the real blockbuster announcement: DinoLand U.S.A.'s closure at Animal Kingdom next February to make way for the new Tropical Americas land, featuring major attractions themed to Encanto and Indiana Jones, as covered by Disneydining. Add to that the Cinderella Castle’s classic color repaint at Walt Disney World and a sneak peek at the new Wayfinders’ Table Moana restaurant opening September 12—a parade of nostalgia and newness reported by Disney Tourist Blog.
On the film front, Disney is leveraging its Pixar and franchise power. Toy Story will return to theaters September 12 for its 30th anniversary, Buzz Lightyear floats back to Macy’s Parade after a decade, and reveals continue for Toy Story 5, TRON: Ares, and the new animated feature Hexed, which delves into magical family drama for a November 2026 release. Finally, the original TRON films are getting a 4K Ultra HD upgrade next week, adding to Disney’s ongoing push to mine classic IP for fresh excitement.
Overall, Disney’s social feeds, investor calls, and fan sites are churning with updates on content releases, theme park news, and business pivots. Whether it’s Gen Z streaming habits, die-hard park aficionados, or Wall Street analysts, Disney is giving everyone something new to talk about—setting the stage for a fall season as headline-heavy as ever.
