1 Upcoming Disney Animated Show's Release Plan Is A Massive Show Of Confidence

Disney is shifting its strategy to focus on original content for Disney+ including the upcoming ambitious animated series Iwájú. Iwájú, created in collaboration with Kugali Media, will explore themes like class clashes in a futuristic Nigerian setting. By centering on Black and African storytellers, Disney is looking to create a groundbreaking animated series that resonates with viewers.
It's no secret that The Walt Disney Company has made substantial changes to its slate of soon-to-be-released movies. From pumping the breaks on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) to announcing surprise sequels like Moana 2, Disney is changing its flooding-the-marketplace strategy, especially where its premiere streaming platform is concerned. However, there is an upcoming animated series bound for Disney+ with a more ambitious release plan — one that underscores Disney's confidence instead of highlighting the company's more recent financial and critical setbacks.
Since its founding in 1923, Walt Disney Animation Studios has produced a whopping 62 feature-length films.
