Disney is expanding its entertainment empire with significant announcements across theme parks, digital content, and home media. At the D23 fan event, the company revealed plans for a "Monsters, Inc." themed land, dubbed Monstropolis, set to open at Disney's Hollywood Studios in 2027. This expansion signals a continued focus on beloved intellectual properties within its theme park portfolio.
Beyond the parks, Disney is venturing into new digital realms with "Disney Cursed Love," a romantasy webcomics series for Webtoon inspired by classic films like "Beauty and the Beast." This initiative targets an adult audience with darker, more mature takes on fairy tales. Furthermore, the critically acclaimed "KPop Demon Hunters" is receiving a special Blu-ray and 4K UHD release from Criterion, offering fans a premium home viewing experience with additional special features.
