Disney BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

It has been a dizzying stretch for Disney this past week with headlines that command attention and long-term business weight. The most publicized turbulence began with a wave of Disney Plus cancellations, reportedly reaching as high as one million according to entertainment media, hot on the heels of the controversial benching of talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. What made this more dramatic was She Hulk star Tatiana Maslany herself encouraging viewers to cancel Disney Plus, despite starring in a flagship series on the platform. Disney responded characteristically bold, opting to immediately raise Disney Plus prices rather than offer olive branches. Analysts note that such timing aligns with Disney’s fiscal year reset in October, making year-over-year numbers look stronger for investors even if it disappoints subscribers. According to MickeyBlog the move is both a financial chess play and a stark reminder that Disney is prioritizing investor optics above fan appeasement at the moment.

In the parks, transformations have been sweeping and permanent. Disney shut down Animation Courtyard in Hollywood Studios on September 25th—not a temporary closure, but the start of a demolition and overhaul. Star Wars Launch Bay is now gone, with the space to become The Walt Disney Studios Lot, promising immersive new experiences like The Magic of Disney Animation and an Alice in Wonderland-inspired Drawn to Wonderland playground. Simultaneously, Fantasmic has dropped its second nightly performance, so guests should consult the app if they want to catch the famous fire-breathing dragon, especially as Jollywood Nights approaches.

Over in Animal Kingdom, DinoLand is in its twilight. The Boneyard playground closed on September 2nd, and the Dinosaur ride is expected to follow, paving the way for the much-hyped Zootopia Better Zoogether 4D experience premiering November 7th in the Tree of Life Theater.

On the West Coast, Downtown Disney in Anaheim presses forward with construction—lululemon will soon open in the converted ESPN Zone, the LEGO store’s exterior is in mid-remodel, and Halloween movie nights have begun, creating a festive but chaotic scene for regulars.

Social media buzz has been thick with reactions—fans lamenting lost attractions and celebrity outspokenness, park obsessives analyzing every construction fence, and skeptics questioning Disney’s loyalty to its base. The New York Times and Bloomberg have both spotlighted the company’s ruthless efficiency on the streaming and theme park fronts. Meanwhile, Disney’s official channels are hyping Zootopia 2 and positioning expansion as evidence of creative evolution.

In short, Disney’s week is a masterclass in brinksmanship—upping prices as subscribers bail, razing beloved park landmarks in favor of new intellectual property, swinging for the fences in both business and narrative. The magic continues, but it is shrewd, strategic, and never without headlines.
