D23: MOVIE UPDATE

We're all in this together.... Not being at the D23 Expo that is. Has the depression set in yet... yup! But have no fear your updates are here!

This is what we've learned so far (you know aside from the fact that we have to be there next year):

Finding Dory will be released on June 17, 2016 and what a cast! Of course Ellen Degeneres will be back as Dory and we learned earlier in the year that Ty Burrell will voice a beluga whale and now we have another Modern Family star added to the mix! Ed O'neill will voice Hank the octopus! 



Also going this amazing cast is Always Sunny In Philadelphia's Kaitlin Olson and as Dory's parents Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy... YES PLEASE!!! 

Zootopia is getting a lot of buzz at the expo as well. An amazing cast and concept already and now we have Shakira too!!! Her characeter, Gazelle, is a pop star that we know we are gonna find hysterical! 


Having a mega star in the movie means a new big hit for Disney? We think so... Shakira and Sia have a new original song for the film "Try Everything" that was sampled this weekend and mouseketeers went nuts over! This is a film we will for sure be going to the theater to see March 4th 2016!!!



Disney Animation also revealed plans for Gigantic, a new take on Jack and The Beanstalk that takes place in Spain. And of course we can't forget about Moana with Dwayne The Rock Johnson! He plays a god Maui who with the help of Moana finds out who he is... born a human raised by gods... yes things should be interesting! 




This is like the "Disney Comic Con" so very fitting we got some Marvel Phase 3 updates.... 

Chris Evans and Anthony Mackie were at the expo this morning to talk Captain America: The Civil War.... yup let that depression sink in! Before they showed some exclusive footage Chris Evans admitted that when he is having a bad day he goes online and watches Disney videos and then goes in his trailer and sings Let It Go... ok yea even more in love! 



We have a lot of Marvel characters in this one including Scarlett Witch, Hawkeye, Iron Man and yes Ant Man (who turns part fan boy in this one)!! Exclusive clips played featured an Easter Egg too... a container number 23 in cell D... get it!! This epic film is coming our way May 6th!!! 


Also at the expo Marvel presented more on Doctor Strange, which hasn't begun filming yet but promises to be the darkest and most difficult one to date.

Ok animation, Marvel and up next PIXAR!!! 



Aside from John Lasseter stealing the show with his epic line of shirts we also got news on what's to come for PIXAR! We know The Good Dinosaur comes out later this year, plus we talked about Finding Dory earlier,  so let's talk about Toy Story 4! A lot of nerves going into this one because we were told it was going to be very different from the rest and it will because it's Pixar's first full on love story and it will be between Woody and Bo Peep... that's right Bo Peep Baby!!! Coco is sure to be a crowd favorite as it is about Dia De Los Muertos. The film's main character is Miguel, a 12 year old who discovers a generational mystery that forever changes his fate... hmmm Brave anyone?! D23 expo also revealed there will indeed be a Cars 3 and Incredibles 2, which is currently in development!

Oh also we can't forget about the Pixar Short Riley's First Date... yup Riley from Inside Out! Oh the emotions!!! That will be released with the Inside Out DVD. 

Disney also talked about the upcoming sequel to Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland... Alice Through The Looking Glass features the original cast and hits theaters May 27, 2016! 



Ok so 2015 broke records for Disney but I think 2016 is going to be a showstopper as well! 
Which are you most excited about?!
