Bob Iger Insists Disney's Focus Is on Original Movies—but Is It?

A glance at the list of announced films coming from Walt Disney Studios—including Disney's live-action and animated divisions, plus Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, 20th Century Studios, Searchlight Pictures, and more—will tell you a few things. The biggest is that the upcoming slate leans heavily toward sequels, reboots, remakes, and new entries in well-known series, something the company's CEO, Bob Iger, seemed to hedge against in a recent earnings call. 'I wouldn't say that we've got a priority one way or the other,' The Wrap reports he said in response to a question about whether or not the studio is leaning more into original or familiar titles. 'Our priority is to put out great movies that ultimately resonate with consumers, and the more we can find and develop original property, the better.' But while Iger understands the value of 'creating new IP,' he's also not about to turn his back on Disney's popular existing IP, either. He acknowledged that sequels and films that 'bring [existing IP] forward in a more modern way, as we've done, or convert what was previously animation to live action… it's just a great opportunity for the company and supports our franchises.' He used the live-action Moana, due in 2026, as an example. That series in particular is riding high after 2024's smash hit animation Moana 2, an achievement made even more impressive because it was originally intended to be a Disney+ project rather than a theatrical release. It's the perfect positive focal point for Disney shareholders, the audience for today's earnings call. That said, it may be a bit unfair to peek at Disney's future calendar, which is stuffed full of well-known IP, and declare that Disney isn't making an effort to create original films. Most of the films the studio dates well in advance—from the upcoming Tron: Ares to the Avatar sequels, The Mandalorian and Grogu, Toy Story 5, Frozen III, and the next Avengers films—are those big franchise films that will benefit from fan excitement, even years in advance. And it's no secret Disney's top priority is making money, same as every other Hollywood studio. To get a true feeling for whether or not Iger is speaking the truth, you'd need to time-warp into the future a few years, then look back at all the titles that actually got released over a certain span of time. Maybe there'd be more original movies than we think. However, we must also note that Iger's definition of what constitutes 'original' is not what you might expect. Like, say, The Fantastic Four: First Steps. He's aware other studios have made Fantastic Four movies before, of course. But also: 'We kind of consider the one that we did an original property in many respects, because we're introducing those characters to people who are not familiar with them at all.' Sir… that is a reboot. You made a reboot. What do you make of Iger's remarks regarding Disney's priorities when it comes to making original films? Want more io9 news?

John Cena Talks SUPERMAN's Impact on PEACEMAKER Season 2 and His Loyalty to James Gunn — GeekTyrant

With James Gunn's Superman soaring high in both critical and box office circles, eyes are now on what that success means for the second season of Peacemaker . According to series star John Cena, the positive momentum is a good sign for the future of the DCU—and for the man behind the vision. When asked about his surprise Superman cameo, Cena didn't hesitate to credit Gunn for the easy decision to jump in. "The cameo came about because he asked me, and he could ask me to go to the ends of the Earth and if I could do it, then I'll do it. He's one of the people on a short list, which I admire and respect and really do as much as I can for them. He's changed my life completely, as I stand here in [the Peacemaker costume]." It's that deep respect for Gunn that makes Cena especially excited to see the audience rally behind Superman as the new DC Universe's foundation. "I think to have audiences around the world, embrace James' vision of Superman, which is James' vision for the DCU, is exciting for all of us. It shows that people are interested and they know that Superman is more than just a standalone movie. It's an installment in something larger and I think everyone is eager to see the next chapter." That next chapter is Peacemaker Season 2, which will keep its gritty, unfiltered tone but go even deeper into the DCU web Gunn is weaving. The new season finds Peacemaker facing a version of life he's always dreamed of, only to be forced into a reckoning with his past and an uncertain future. James Gunn returns to write all eight episodes and directs three, including the season opener. Cena is back in full gear, joined once again by Danielle Brooks, Freddie Stroma, Jennifer Holland, and Steve Agee, as the crew steps into a bigger narrative than ever before. This time, the story stretches far beyond Team Peacemaker. Frank Grillo enters the scene as Rick Flag Sr., connecting threads between Superman , Creature Commandos , and what lies ahead for the DCU. Fans can also look forward to crossover appearances from Superman characters like Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, and Sean Gunn as the shady Maxwell Lord. On top of all that, Peacemaker Season 2 will introduce a new face with Red St. Wild, played by Michael Rooker, another staple of Gunn's cinematic world. With Superman clearing the runway and Peacemaker set to take off again, it's looking like a wild, fun, and connected ride ahead for DC fans.

'What a city': Son Heung-min lands at Los Angeles FC with plans for trophies, love for Korean fans

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Son Heung-min has arrived at Los Angeles FC with great excitement and even greater ambitions for the next stage of his groundbreaking soccer career. 'I'm here to win, and I will perform,' Son said at a packed news conference. 'I will definitely show you something exciting ... are we calling it football or soccer? I will definitely show some exciting football, and we definitely will have success.' LAFC formally introduced its new forward Wednesday at BMO Stadium, where his likeness already looms over the main entrance gates and on video boards surrounding the stadium. The 33-year-old South Korean superstar is back on the Pacific Rim after a professional career spent in Europe, including the past decade at Tottenham. 'What can I say? Dream come true. LA, what a city,' said Son, who will wear No. 7 in black and gold. Son had suitors from around the globe after he decided to leave Spurs, and he said the decision to join LAFC initially wasn't obvious. He came around to the idea of moving to MLS after conversations with LAFC general manager John Thorrington, who sold Son on the 8-year-old club's ambition to be an international brand and the most successful club in North America. 'If I'm honest, it was not my first choice,' Son said. 'But (from the) first call when I talked to John after the season finished, he just changed my mind. He changed my heart. He changed my brain. He showed me the destination where I should be. Right now, I'm here. I'm more than happy.' Son laughingly said he was also pitched aggressively by Hugo Lloris, his longtime teammate at Tottenham who is now LAFC's starting goalkeeper. Son is South Korea's most popular athlete, and he is widely considered to be the greatest Asian soccer player in history. He said he already feels at home in Los Angeles, which has the world's largest ethnic Korean population outside Korea and a robust base of soccer fans from all backgrounds who appreciate his accomplishments. Son's introductory news conference was attended by Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, South Korea's consul general, several additional politicians, dozens of Korean journalists and dozens of drum-beating, singing fans from the LAFC supporters' group famous for its relentless, raucous noise during matches. Son already got a taste of LAFC fans' passion Tuesday when he attended the club's Leagues Cup victory over Tigres. 'On behalf of millions of Angelenos and soccer fans around the world — Sonny, welcome to Los Angeles,' Bass said. 'This is a moment that will be remembered in the city for generations to come.' Son joins a lengthy list of soccer stars from European leagues who moved to Hollywood for a second act in their careers. Gareth Bale, Giorgio Chiellini and Olivier Giroud have all suited up for LAFC, while the crosstown rival LA Galaxy have welcomed even more European superstars, including David Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robbie Keane and Marco Reus. Son did not appear to be in decline during the past season as Tottenham's captain, and he said he is in good game shape after participating in Spurs' summer tour of Asia. He did not set a date for his LAFC debut, but it could be this month. 'I just felt like I need a new chapter, I need a new challenge, and I choose LAFC,' Son said. 'I think we can say I'm old, but I still have a good physicality, good legs, and still have a good quality. I'm here to perform, but also I want to give some advice to the young players for improvement. That's why we are here.' ___ AP soccer:
