Disney used its D23 2026 Entertainment Showcase to announce new film and television projects across Pixar, Disney+ and Disney Channel, highlighting plans for several major franchises. The announcements matter because they set out Disney’s forthcoming slate through 2029, including sequels to established animated films and a new adaptation of a popular video game series.

– A Kingdom Hearts anime series has been greenlit for Disney Channel and Disney+, developed with Tetsuya Nomura and Square Enix; it will tell a new story within the franchise’s universe.
– Coco 2 is scheduled for November 2029, with the original directors returning and Benjamin Bratt reprising Ernesto de la Cruz; Miguel will be a teenager and face Ernesto’s revenge.
– The Incredibles 3 will arrive in June 2028, centring more on Violet and Dash while Bob struggles with his role in a changing superhero world; the family will confront a new supervillain.
– Disney also showed storyboard material from the forthcoming Simpsons Movie sequel, due next year.
