This past weekend, Disney fans gathered in Anaheim, California, for the biennial D23 Expo—the ultimate convention for Disney enthusiasts. If you’re not familiar with it, D23 is like a dream come true for Disney lovers, where major announcements and sneak peeks into Disney’s future projects are revealed.
This year, Disney pulled out all the stops, announcing a lineup of highly anticipated sequels and new projects that have fans buzzing. Among the biggest reveals were “Frozen 3,” “Zootopia 2,” “Toy Story 5,” and “The Incredibles 3.”
These beloved franchises are returning with new adventures, much to the delight of fans. In addition to these big-name sequels, Disney gave us a first look at the “live-action” adaptation of “Lilo & Stitch.”
Another exciting announcement came from the world of “Tron,” with Nine Inch Nails confirmed as the composers for the upcoming “Tron: Ares” soundtrack, adding a fresh and edgy sound to the franchise.
But that’s not all! “Inside Out” is getting a spinoff series for Disney+ called “Dream Productions,” set to premiere next year. This series will explore the vibrant world inside our minds with the same creativity and heart that made the original film a hit.
One of the more unexpected moments of the weekend came when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson took the stage. He danced his way into the audience’s hearts while promoting the new “Moana 2” trailer and announced an all-new live-action movie titled “Monster Jam,” inspired by the world of monster trucks.
