It was bound to happen, that when Disney acquired the 20th Century Fox studio, some film production pruning was necessary. But even then, the expanded umbrella of the House of Mouse has a dominant film slate for several years. For their existing subsidiaries the MCU continues on, while for Fox they have a mind-boggling four sequels for James Cameron’s Avatar.There are a lot of untitled movies on that timetable shared by Disney. But at least the year 2020 has finalized the names of the films airing by then. Here’s a chronological list of 2020 Disney movies that fans can expect on the big screen next year:
- Onward (Disney Pixar) – March 6, 2020
- Mulan live-action remake (Walt Disney Pictures) – March 27, 2020
- “untitled†(Disney Pixar) – June 19, 2020
- Jungle Cruise theme-park ride adaptation (Walt Disney Pictures) – July 24, 2020
- The One and Only Ivan (Walt Disney Pictures) – August 14, 2020
- “untitled†(Walt Disney Animation Studios) – November 25, 2020
- Cruella live-action “101 Dalmatians†spinoff a la “Maleficent†(Walt Disney Pictures) – December 23, 2020

It’s interesting to note that Pixar has two films slated for next year’s 2020 Disney movies, more than the expected offering of Walt Disney Animation. Furthermore, no MCU productions have been finalized for 2020 either. Time will tell if these will change, and what the titles of the two mystery films will be.
