Disney Gives New Looks at ‘Toy Story 5,’ ‘Zootopia 2,’ and More

Originality is still alive at Disney, and it’s taking the form of 2026’s Hexed.

Unveiled during the studio’s Destination 23 event, the Walt Disney Animation Studios film from Zootopia and Raya and the Last Dragon artist Josie Trinidad and Moana 2 co-director Jason Hand centers on “an awkward teenage boy and his Type – A mom,” per the logline. When they discover his oddness is actually magic powers manifesting, they learn of a secret world of magic that’ll forever transform their lives. (A premise Disney’s familiar with, as it’s similar to its Disney Channel series The Owl House.) Look for Hexed to hit the big screen in November 2026.

Coming to theaters in Fall 2026, Disney’s #Hexed is an all-new original film that follows an awkward teenage boy and his Type – A mom, who discover that what makes him unusual, might just be magical powers that will turn their lives and a secret world of magic, upside down.… pic.twitter.com/wGEM3gNkor

Separate from Hexed, Disney also announced Blue Sky’s Ice Age franchise will return with its sixth main installment, Burning Point. Developed by 20th Century Animation, the new film will see the cast of the previous films return in their respective roles for “a dinosaur-and-lava-filled madcap adventure that takes Manny, Sid, Diego, Ellie, Scrat and the rest of the herd to visit never-before-seen corners of the treacherous Lost World.” Burning Point is set to release February 5, 2027.

In the more immediate future, Disney showed the audience scenes from Zootopia 2, Toy Story 5, and Hoppers. Toy Story and Zootopia featured new cast members—Conan O’Brien as Smarty Pants for the former; Patrick Warburton and Yvette Nicole Brown as Mayor Winddancer and the Bearoness for the latter—and Hoppers got three clips to show off. Zootopia 2 is due out November 26, followed by Hoppers on March 5, 2026 and Toy Story 5 on June 19, 2026.
