Disney+ axes all long-form animation

You may blame the success of Moana 2 for this one

Tiana-series

Disney+

Earlier this week The Hollywood Reporter reported that that Disney has scrapped all plans for a Tiana, a Disney+ animated sequence, which was set to observe the titular character after the occasions of 2009’s The Princess and the Frog. And sadly, this cancelation is a part of a broader technique shift by Walt Disney Animation away from animated long-form content material created solely for Disney+.


Although I am personally unhappy to see the Tiana challenge scrapped as I am an enormous fan of Princess and the Frog (particularly as a hand-drawn animation fanatic), this transfer away from content material created particularly for Disney+ does make sense, particularly within the wake of Moana 2, which was initially conceived as a Disney+ sequence however was transformed right into a theatrically-released film that went on to gross over a billion {dollars} worldwide. Hopefully, one thing related occurs with Tiana, as I would like to see what this challenge may have been, both as a theatrically-released movie, a sequence of shorts, or one thing else.

Throughout this week’s Morgan Stanley Tech, Media & Telecom Convention, Netflix CFO Spencer Neumann made the stunning revelation that the streamer was anticipating to funds an eye-watering $18 billion in 2025 for brand spanking new content material, including that Netflix was really planning to spend extra sooner or later and this quantity was “not wherever close to a ceiling.”

In case you had been questioning, this $18 billion content material funds for this 12 months is up round 11% from the $16.2 billion spent on content material in 2024 per Variety and comes because the streamer is going through elevated criticism for its dialogue-heavy movies and cheap-looking exhibits. Maybe, with extra money to spend in 2025 Netflix may cancel one or two fewer exhibits this 12 months. Then once more, they may simply spend the additional cash on the NFL as an alternative.

I am not the most important fan of actuality TV. Nevertheless, even I can admit when producers discover a profitable method, and I’ve been completely loving this newest season of The Traitors on Peacock. Broadly talking, this competitors sequence takes former actuality recreation present contestants from the likes of Survivor, Huge Brother and The Problem and mixes them with quite a lot of Bravo-lebirites (members of the casts of Actual Housewives, Beneath Deck, Vanderpump Guidelines, and so forth.) and challenges them not solely to take part in bodily challenges so as to add to a prize pot, but in addition an overarching psychological recreation the place they have to determine who amongst them are “traitors,” gamers that secretly get rid of others throughout “homicide” rituals to allow them to declare the prize for themselves.

Although the present’s first season made for very watchable tv, the second season faltered a bit as some unlucky new parts had been added to the sport that altered the tempo of play. Nevertheless, season three has gone again to fundamentals, and with an especially sturdy solid that features Survivor mainstay Boston Rob, Huge Brother alums Danielle Reyes and Britney Haynes, Vanderpump Guidelines villain Tom Sandoval, and even Britney Spears’ ex-husband Sam Asghari, this season has been must-watch TV for me. The ultimate episode of the season drops tonight, and if you have not checked in with this present but, do your self a favor, and boot up the Peacock app, keep off the Web (you undoubtedly don’t need this season’s twists spoiled for you) and prepare to expertise probably the most compulsively watchable actuality TV in years.
