History

Historical Context

When Disney and Pixar released Toy Story on November 22 1995, it became the first fully computer-animated feature and earned more than $363 million worldwide, launching a franchise that now spans seven films and has grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide. That success showed Disney how timed releases could sustain long-term merchandising, a strategy it is applying to Frozen 3 slated for November 24 2027.
