There, literally, was so much news that came out of Disney’s D23 Expo that I couldn’t keep up. If there was news in this blog we missed, let us know!
Let’s start with the trailers…
The biggest trailer to drop at D23 was ‘The Mandalorian‘.Set after ‘The Return Of The Jedi’, this Star Wars show will be the gem of Disney’s streaming service, Disney +.
Also atop of the trending list was Lady and The Tramp. This movie, also exclusively on Disney +, features rescue dogs as the actors! After the starring dogs walked the red carpet (Really, they walked the red carpet and you can watch it HERE) they dropped the trailer for the movie.
