Walt Disney Recent Movies: A Glimpse into the Studio's Upcoming Slate

With the recent acquisition of Fox film studios, The Walt Disney Studios has unveiled its upcoming slate, which includes changes to previously dated films and a number of major additions. As the studio continues to expand its offerings, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of several highly anticipated movies.

One of the most notable changes is the move up of Fox 2000's 'The Art of Racing in the Rain' to August 9. This heartwarming drama follows the story of a dog named Enzo and his human family as they navigate life's ups and downs. On August 23, Fox Searchlight's 'Ready or Not' will hit theaters, a thrilling horror film that explores the dark side of marriage.

In addition to these new releases, three films have been pushed back to later dates. 'Ad Astra,' starring Brad Pitt, is now set for release on September 20, 2019. The sci-fi drama follows an astronaut as he searches for his missing father in space. 'The New Mutants' will hit theaters on April 3, 2020, and 'Artemis Fowl' is slated for a May 29, 2020 release.

This summer, Disney's 'Aladdin' will kick off the studio's 2019 slate, followed by Fox's 'Dark Phoenix' on June 7. Pixar's 'Toy Story 4' will arrive on June 21, and Fox's 'Stuber' will hit theaters on July 12. Rounding out the summer is Disney's 'The Lion King,' which will roar into theaters on July 19.

In addition to these theatrical releases, several films will be available through Disney+. Films labeled with a † symbol will receive a simultaneous release in theaters and on the streaming platform, while those marked with a ‡ symbol will have an exclusive streaming release. This includes titles such as 'Togo' and 'Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made.'

The list of upcoming films from Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures does not include movies produced by studios that were acquired by Disney but were previously distributed by other companies. Instead, the list focuses on films produced or released by all existing and defunct labels or subsidiaries of the Walt Disney Studios, including Walt Disney Pictures, Pixar Animation Studios, Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm, 20th Century Studios, Searchlight Pictures, Disneynature, Touchstone Pictures, and Hollywood Pictures.

As one of the 'Big Five' major film studios, Walt Disney Studios continues to produce a wide range of films that delight audiences around the world. With this impressive slate of upcoming movies, fans can look forward to even more excitement from the beloved studio.
