But the excitement doesn't end there! Disney has also made updates to its release calendar, pushing back the live-action remake of 'Moana' by a year to July 10, 2026, to accommodate the animated sequel, 'Moana 2,' set for release this November.
In the realm of Star Wars, fans have reason to rejoice as 'The Mandalorian & Grogu' is confirmed to make its big-screen debut on May 22, 2026. This marks a significant milestone for the franchise's return to theaters since 'The Rise of Skywalker' in 2019.
Additionally, sci-fi enthusiasts can look forward to Jared Leto's 'Tron: Ares,' set to electrify audiences on October 10, 2025. Promising a fresh take on the cult classic, this installment ventures beyond the digital world, offering a new perspective on the beloved franchise.
