All the Disney Investor Day Announcements in One Big Post Vulture.com 12/11/2020 © Disney/Twitter To infinity and beyond! Disney/Twitter
In a four-hour presentation to its investors Thursday, Disney activated its full Death Star capacities and unveiled much of its upcoming slate of projects coming down the line. The announcements were surely designed to goose Disney’s stock price, and cover for the damage done by the COVID pandemic, especially to its theme parks business, and led with a real focus on the importance of Disney+ to the company. The service has already racked up 86.8 million subscribers in its first year, and the company is hoping to get 230 to 260 million by 2024. Of the 100 projects that Disney announced, about 80 percent will debut on the service, and the price of it is going up a dollar a month to $7.99 next March.

2.35pm: Disney announces possibly too many new films, TV series
Culture editor Sam Brooks breaks down the literal shit tonne of upcoming releases:
Today, Disney announced in their classic fashion – a massive Twitter thread – what they’ll be working on for the next few years. (This your reminder that Disney currently owns Marvel Studios, 20th Century Studios, FX Networks, Pixar, Lucasfilm and National Geographic.)
The company also announced Star, a Hulu replacement for international Disney Plus subscribers (that’s us!). This is a free tier that will be integrated into the app that will carry a number of shows from Disney’s other non-main franchise brands, see above. It will roll out on February 23rd. In short, it’ll mean that you get more shows per dollar on Disney+, including a few shows that have fallen through the cracks on our other steaming services.
