As Walt Disney Studios celebrates its 100th anniversary this week, its next year is set to be the media giant’s most uncertain in decades. The writers and actors have created a level of disruption to film and television that could even beat the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

While the WGA strikes ended last month, five months feels like an eternity in Hollywood. Writers’ rooms are only just getting back to work, and there’s a stack of scripts that require re-writes – and that’s not even accounting for the mountain of movies and shows in the pre-production stage.

Not only that – as of October 2023, there are no actors currently around to perform these lines, with recent negotiations between SAG and the AMPTP Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) failing to secure a deal that gets actors back on their mark.

Disney has recently announced an onslaught of projects that have been pushed back, set for release in the new year, if the strike ends when predicted. Many of these projects have been delayed due to tactical reasons, such as promotion during awards season, as well as re-shoots shifting the schedule.

Every Disney movie delayed until next year (so far)

While these movies were intended for 2024 release, Disney has knocked them back by several months, and are likely to change again. If the actors’ strike doesn’t end, reshoots cannot be filmed, extending the delays even further. If Disney are keen to restart doing press tours, this will also weigh in as a factor.

  • Captain America: Brave New World – Original release date: May 3rd, 2023, New release date: July 26th, 2024
  • Thunderbolts – Original release date:  July 26th, 2024, New release date: December 20th, 2024
  • Blade – Original release date: September 6th, 2024, New release date: Unconfirmed, most likely 2025
