Marvel, Moana, and more: All the Disney Investor Day news dump in one convenient location
An investors call doesn’t sound like an exciting thing to be on, unless it’s on Succession or something. But Disney Investor Day was anything but a snoozefest on Thursday, with the massive conglomerate announcing its further world domination with approximately 7,642 new projects coming down the pipeline that will capitalize on the established popularity of everything from Moana and Tiana to Sister Act and Alien. It was practically impossible for the A.V. Club staff to keep up with all the potential headlines coming out of the call, but we did our best. Here’s everything in one convenient location to save you the trouble of hunting everything down individually.
