The Walt Disney Company used its D23 presentation to outline major theatrical slates for both its family animation and Marvel Cinematic Universe divisions, confirming a theatrical feature for the global phenomenon Bluey alongside extensive new footage from Avengers: Doomsday.
Bluey Transitions to 3D Theatrical Format
The Bluey feature film is written and directed by series creator Joe Brumm. Production utilizes CG animation handled by studio Cosmic Dino, marking a visual shift from the television show's traditional 2D style. Disney scheduled the film for a theatrical release on August 6, 2027.
Avengers: Doomsday Cast and Footage Details
Marvel Studios debuted a new trailer for Avengers: Doomsday, showcasing Robert Downey Jr. in the role of Doctor Doom alongside an army of Sentinels. Directed by the Russo brothers, the film includes the return of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers. The footage also confirmed appearances by Sue Storm, Reed Richards, Magneto, Gambit, and Thor, pointing toward a convergence of multiple Marvel franchises.
These announcements establish Disney's strategy of combining established intellectual property with legacy character returns to drive box office returns through 2027. The shift of Bluey to a 3D theatrical format tests the longevity of the brand on the big screen, while Avengers: Doomsday leans into high-profile casting to anchor the current phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
