The 2020 Disney Investor Day taking place today, December 10, 2020 (at 4:30 PM ET) promises big updates from the slate of Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars films. Be sure to stay tuned to this post as we'll be updating all the latest news surrounding Pixar!

Disney Investor Day 15 New Series and Features

They didn't break down the amount of films and series for each studio at this point, but that is a lot of content on the way. Remember, that in September 2019, we read that a Cars series was in the works at Pixar — so, we can hope that Cars is one of those 15 series. Additionally, we would anticipate that they're counting Monsters At Work, the upcoming series surrounding the world of Monsters, Inc., in this number as well.
