10 Disney Movies Coming Out In 2019: Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars Too
Here's every Disney movie release date coming in 2019, from 'Frozen 2,' to live-action films like 'Aladdin' and Marvel's 'Avengers: Endgame'
Disney has a big year ahead in 2019, especially since acquiring LucasFilms and Marvel Entertainment.
After a successful slew of live-action remakes of their classic animated films such as "Cinderella" (2015), "The Jungle Book" (2016) and "Beauty and the Beast" (which brought in over 1 billion dollars at the box office in 2017), the House of Mouse shows no signs of slowing down. Up next is "Dumbo," "The Lion King" and "Aladdin," with both "Frozen" and "Toy Story" receiving animated follow-ups.
In addition, Disney has an adaptation of famed novel "Artemis Fowl" on the roster as well as final chapters to the "Avengers" and "Star Wars" sagas.
