According to The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a>, Jon Favreau’s The Mandalorian & Grogu<\/em> starring Pedro Pascal will premiere on May 26, 2026. This marks Disney’s first big-screen Star Wars<\/em> film since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker<\/em>.<\/p>\n Fans don’t have to wait until 2026 for a sci-fi Disney movie, however. TRON: Ares<\/em> — the third movie in the TRON<\/em> franchise — will open on October 10, 2025. The anticipated sequel stars Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan, and Gillian Anderson.<\/p>\n During the Disney press announcement, CEO Bob Iger confirmed that Toy Story 5<\/em> will premiere on June 19, 2026. On Tuesday’s The Tonight Show<\/em>, guest Tim Allen — who voices Buzz Lightyear in the animated franchise — said, \u201c[Bob Iger] actually said it was going to happen. They have reached out to Tom [Hanks] and I to reprise the roles. They’re not saying anything about it.”<\/p>\n Allen continued, “For people like me, it\u2019s just like \u2014 I\u2019m a sci-fi buff. You wonder if four was too many, is five too much? According to the scuttlebutts, the writer that’s doing it wrote one of the better ones and he said, ‘If I didn’t get this right, I wouldn\u2019t do it.’ So it could be a very, very interesting way to reunite it.”<\/p>\n According to Entertainment Weekly<\/em><\/a>, Disney pushed back the live-action version of Moana<\/em> 13 months to July 10, 2026. The date change is believed to give the animated Moana 2<\/em>, which opens this November, a little more breathing room.<\/p>\n “I’m deeply humbled and overcome with gratitude to bring the beautiful story of Moana<\/em> to the live-action big screen,” said Dwayne Johnson in a statement when the film was announced in April 2023. “This story is my culture, and this story is emblematic of our people’s grace and warrior strength. I wear this culture proudly on my skin and in my soul, and this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reunite with Maui, inspired by the mana and spirit of my late grandfather, High Chief Peter Maivia, is one that runs very deep for me.”<\/p>\n Disney also revealed that 20th Century Studios’ The Amateur<\/em> starring Rami Malek will move from November 8, 2024 to April 11, 2025. In addition, Nightbitch<\/em><\/a> starring Amy Adams will premiere on December 6, 2024.<\/p>\n The post Disney Sets 2026 Release Dates for \u2018Moana,\u2019 \u2018The Mandalorian & Grogu,\u2019 and \u2018Toy Story 5\u2019<\/a> first appeared on Wealth of Geeks<\/a>.<\/p>\nDisney Pushes the Live-Action ‘Moana’ Back a Year To Give the Animated ‘Moana 2′ Room To Breathe<\/h2>\n
