Happy Earth Day! We all know Disney for the movies and the rides, but behind the scenes, there’s some seriously impressive work going on to keep the magic sustainable.
To celebrate Earth Day 2026, I’ve picked out three of my favourite recent initiatives that show how Disney is actually walking the walk when it comes to the environment.
1. Harnessing the Florida Sun
One of the big updates today is that Disney have finally opened their new solar facility in Levy County. It’s part of a much bigger push across their parks worldwide – they’ve got massive solar canopies over the parking lots in Disneyland Paris, thousands of panels on the rooftops at Hong Kong Disneyland, and even arrays powering Castaway Cay in the Bahamas.
In Florida specifically, this new site means they now have enough solar power to cover 100% of the daytime needs for the entire resort on a sunny day. It’s pretty wild to think that everything from the monorail to the coasters is being powered by the sun while you’re actually there.

2. A 3,000-Mile Commute for Purple Martins
A lot of people don’t know this, but every year, thousands of purple martins travel all the way from the Brazilian Amazon just to spend their spring at Walt Disney World. It’s a massive journey – over 3,000 miles – and they come specifically to nest in the parks.
Disney has set up these specialised nesting “condos” (you can spot them at Saratoga Springs or near EPCOT) to give them a safe place to raise their chicks. It’s actually turned the golf courses into certified wildlife sanctuaries! On May 1st, they’re even hosting a “Purple Martin Palooza” at the Magnolia Golf Course where fans can see the conservation work up close. It’s a great reminder that the parks are a home for wildlife as much as they are for us.

3. 30 Years of Global Magic
The Disney Conservation Fund (DCF) is officially celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. Since it started back in 1995, they’ve actually directed over $141 million toward protecting wildlife, which is a pretty massive milestone.
One project that stands out to me is Proyecto Tití in Colombia. They work with cotton-top tamarins to create forest corridors so they can move safely in the wild. They even work with local communities to recycle plastic bags into tote bags, which is a great touch. It’s definitely cool to think that a day at Animal Kingdom actually helps fund projects like that.

The Verdict
I’m a big fan of the attention to detail Disney puts into these projects. It’s easy to talk about being “green,” but seeing hundreds of acres of solar panels or tracking a bird’s 3,000-mile journey shows they are actually putting in the work. As someone in the early stages of my golf career, I’ll definitely be adding a trip to the golf course to check out the purple martins (and the greens!).
If you’re looking for something to watch tonight, Disney+ just released a new film for Earth Day called Orangutan, narrated by Josh Gad. If you’re after more Earth Day picks, I’ve put together a full Disney+ watchlist too – check it out here.
Which of these initiatives is your favourite? Are you heading to the Purple Martin Palooza in May? Let me know in the comments!
Earth Day 2026 is one week away and for Disney fans, there are plenty of ways to celebrate with some awe-inspiring content on Disney+. From stunning, in-depth documentaries to classic Pixar movies, there is something for fans of all ages to celebrate Earth Day. Here are 10 of my picks ahead of Earth Day 2026.
Documentaries to Watch on Disney+ for Earth Day
Disneynature’s Orangutan (Releasing April 22nd)
Narrated by Josh Gad (Voice of Olaf), Disneynature’s Orangutan is Disney’s flagship 2026 Earth Day release and frankly, it looks awesome! The film follows Indah, an inquisitive adolescent orangutan learning how to navigate life as she prepares to leave her family and venture out on her own for the first time. From the trailer, the visuals of Borneo and Sumatra look stunning and the soundtrack really gives me Tarzan vibes. It definitely looks like a documentary not to be missed!
Secrets of the Bees
Another recent documentary addition to Disney+ is Secrets of the Bees, produced by National Geographic. The two-part documentary discovers the hidden world of bees and their incredible intelligence. James Cameron (Titanic, Avatar) serves as the executive producer for the documentary so as you’d expect, the visuals are phenomenal. It’s a fantastic documentary to understand the impact bees have on the natural world and humanity as a whole.
Disneynature’s Tiger
Much like Disneynature’s Orangutan, Tiger is another Disneynature documentary film, which as the title suggests, follows the journey of a young tigress raising her cubs in the forests of India. Priyanka Chopra Jonas serves as the narrator and it’s a really wholesome tale of parenthood and understanding the life and journey of tigers.
A Real Bug’s Life
Spanning 2 seasons, A Real Bug’s Life transports viewers into the micro-universe of insects of all shapes and sizes. It’s another fantastic documentary that shows the extraordinary lives insects live and as someone who is fascinated by bugs, this really hits the spot for me as a series! Again, some of the visuals are phenomenal and there is even an episode at the end of the second series which shows how the series was filmed – I’d highly recommend checking it out!
Best Disney Movies for Earth Day
The Lion King
Arguably one of Disney’s most iconic movies of all time, it’s hard not to include The Lion King as part of any Earth Day watch-along! It’s not just the Savannah setting or the abundance of animal species that make The Lion King essential Earth Day viewing, it’s the message the movie conveys. Mufasa famously says the following quote, which I think embodies the beauty of our natural world and captures the essence of Earth Day:
“Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope… When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so we are all connected in the great Circle of Life”.
A Bug’s Life
We can’t have A Real Bug’s Life in the list without having the Pixar classic! A Bug’s Life is a fantastic depiction of the weird and wonderful insect world and I think does a fantastic job at giving an insight into how organised and intelligent bugs actually are. As a film too, it’s one of the funniest Pixar movies in my opinion and is severely underrated!
Elemental
Another Pixar movie to watch ahead of Earth Day is the fantastic Elemental! The premise and backdrop of the film is literally built on the four elements; fire, water, air and earth. It’s a visually stunning animated movie that cleverly plays on how all of the elements tie in to one another. Plus, at the heart of the movie is a love story that gets me every time I watch it!
Short Films & Relaxing Picks on Disney+
Lava
Lava is a short film (10-minute run time), produced by Pixar which really embodies Earth Day. In essence, it’s a musical love story about two volcanoes that takes place over millions of years. If you’ve never watched it before, it does sound like an odd concept, but in typical Pixar fashion, they do a fantastic job of making the characters so relatable. Also, the song is particularly catchy, so be warned!
Zenimation
I feel like the short Zenimation series on Disney+ has totally gone under the radar for Disney+ fans, but it’s such a wonderful little series. Essentially, it’s a series of short clips from Disney movies (like the water from Moana or the forest from Bambi) edited together for a relaxing visual experience. It’s a really simple concept and if you’ve seen the movies, there is no extra content here, however it really does allow you to appreciate the animation and the calming effects of nature.
Earth Moods
Okay so not quite a ‘short’ as such, Earth Moods is a National Geographic series of videos, ambiently exploring various biomes across the world. There’s no narration, it’s purely an ambient journey through some of the most beautiful places on earth. They remind me of the sort of thing you’d see on display on a TV in an electronics store, but nonetheless, they are perfect for having on in the background while you work or relax.
The Verdict
Whether you’re in the mood for a deep dive into the jungle with Josh Gad or just want some calming scenery while you finish your work, Disney+ really has gone all out for 2026. For me, Earth Day is all about taking a moment to appreciate that “delicate balance” Mufasa talks about – and if I can do that while eating popcorn and watching a Pixar classic, even better.
I’m definitely going to be sat front and centre for Orangutan on the 22nd. There’s just something about those Disneynature films that makes you want to go out and plant a tree (or at least buy a reusable water bottle!).
What are your Earth Day plans? Are you going to be diving into the new Orangutan documentary, or are you sticking with a classic like The Lion King? Let me know your watchlist in the comments below!
Hoppers has barely been in cinemas a week, but after receiving a wave of positive reviews – with many calling it the best Pixar original in years – it got me thinking: could we see a sequel to Hoppers in the future?
We know Pixar loves a sequel, but as with any movie, there are a few factors that determine the green light: Does it make sense to the story, does it make sense financially, and frankly, do we even need one?
Note: This post contains spoilers for the ending of Hoppers!
Does a sequel make sense to the story of Hoppers?
First things first, let’s address whether or not a sequel makes logical sense. At the end of the film, Mabel graduates from college and Dr. Sam tells her that the “Hoppers” programme has been discontinued – essentially meaning there will be no more “hopping” into animals. I thought it was really interesting that the film seemingly closed off the opportunity for future animal-hopping so definitively; they could have easily said the tech was just moving off-campus, but instead, it’s been shut down.
What Dr. Sam goes on to say, however, is that closing the program allows her to focus on “future projects.” The chalkboard reveal in her lab was one of my favourite moments, showing prototypes for Dug’s talking collar (Up), Sox the cat (Lightyear), and a cleaning robot that is unmistakably WALL-E.
This awesome Easter egg was the largest clue that a sequel could be on the cards! Dr. Sam also offers Mabel a job as her assistant, which feels like a clear setup for a follow-up. It suggests a premise where a sequel wouldn’t necessarily be about the beaver robot, but about Mabel helping to develop the iconic tech that populates the rest of the Pixar universe.
Could we see a TV Series instead?
I genuinely think a follow-on TV series for Hoppers could work brilliantly. If a sequel goes down the route of developing Dr. Sam’s prototype projects, that translates perfectly to an episodic format. Each episode could explore a new piece of technology with Mabel helping to implement it. Seeing how Dug got his collar or learning how WALL-E was first created would provide amazing background lore for our favourite Pixar classics.
It’s worth noting that director Daniel Chong actually comes from a heavy TV background (he created the hit series We Bare Bears), so he knows exactly how to build a world that works in a serialized way. Given the success of Pixar’s Win or Lose series on Disney+ last year, there is clearly an appetite for this. A series based on this “prototype development” angle would allow Pixar to be experimental and fun without the pressure of a massive theatrical release.
Do we even need a sequel?
It’s the age-old question: do we even need one? The movie ends on a beautiful, complete note. The glade is saved, the freeway is rerouted, and Mabel has found her place in the world. Sometimes a “true original” is better left as a standalone masterpiece like Ratatouille or WALL-E.
One of the things that made Hoppers so great was the eclectic cast of characters, from King George to Tom Lizard. Since the ending suggests we won’t be seeing the “glade gang” anytime soon, any direct sequel without them might struggle to hit the same heights. However, a spin-off focusing on the dynamic between Mabel and Dr. Sam would be a huge positive in my book.
Does it make sense financially?
This is often the biggest clue as to whether a sequel gets greenlit. Despite it being early days, the signs are very positive. Globally, Hoppers reached an estimated cume of $88M on its opening weekend, making it the biggest original animated debut since Coco in 2017.
This is a massive indicator of intent. It’s particularly relevant because Pixar last year confirmed that ‘Coco 2’ is officially in development. If Pixar is willing to return to a beloved standalone hit like Coco after it proved its financial and critical worth, they will almost certainly be looking at these #1 box office numbers for Hoppers as a reason to turn it into a franchise.
The Verdict
While it’s still early days, the combination of a record-breaking opening weekend and that “Pixar Cinematic Universe” ending makes a follow-up feel almost inevitable. Whether it’s Hoppers 2 or a Disney+ spin-off called The Assistant, I don’t think we’ve seen the last of Mabel Tanaka.
What do you think? Do you want to see more of Mabel’s new job, or should Pixar leave this as a one-off win? Let me know in the comments!
If you’ve caught Hoppers in cinemas, you already know it’s a “dam” good time. But as with any Pixar release, the film is absolutely loaded with callbacks and hidden details that link it to the wider Disney and Pixar universe. Some are classic staples we see in every movie, but others feel like a massive nod to the “Grand Unifying Pixar Theory.”
Just a heads-up: There are spoilers ahead if you haven’t seen the film yet!
Here are the biggest Easter eggs and references I spotted in Hoppers:
Hidden Pixar Staples
A113: Dr. Sam’s lab is designated as room A113, the classic nod to the CalArts classroom found in almost every Pixar film.
The Pizza Planet Truck: During the sequence where the animals are escaping, you can see the iconic yellow truck sitting in a display case by the exit door.
The Pixar Theory Chalkboard: Late in the film, Dr. Sam shows a chalkboard covered in sketches for “future projects.” These clearly show prototypes for Dug’s talking collar from Up, Sox the cat from Lightyear, and a cleaning robot that is unmistakably WALL-E.
Disney & Pixar References
Finding Nemo: Young Mabel tries to save a class turtle named Crush.
When Mabel asks which way to go in the forest, a spider webs an arrow to point her in the right direction – a direct mirror of the Moonfish forming an arrow for Marlin and Dory.
Diane the Shark is also a massive tribute to Bruce. Not only is she a Great White with that same “polite assassin” personality, but her movements during the chase scenes are a direct mirror of Bruce’s pursuit in the submarine.
Big Hero 6: If you look closely at Mabel’s jacket, the name “TANAKA” is embroidered on it. This is likely a nod to Kiko Tanaka from the Disney+ series Baymax!. It’s rare to see Pixar reference a Disney Animation project so directly, but the character designs in Hoppers definitely share that BH6 DNA.
Up & Toy Story: Mabel’s phone case features a Wilderness Explorers Badge and one of the Little Green Men aliens.
Bambi: There is a specific shot of a bunny and a skunk hanging out in the forest, which is a direct tribute to Thumper and Flower.
Soul: When Jerry is on his tablet watching YouTube, check the suggested “Funny Cat Videos” sidebar. The thumbnail features Mr. Mittens from Soul.
The Lion King: King George’s backstory is a mirror of Simba’s, and he even quotes The Haunted Mansion by telling Mabel there is “always room for one more.”
High School Musical: George also tells the group they are “all in this together.”
The Incredibles: One of the cat videos Mabel watches features an orange cat that looks exactly like Squeakers.
For the Birds: During the Animal Council meeting, look at the huddling blue birds on the branch – they are the same neurotic birds from the classic Pixar short.
Onward: The van used by Dr. Sam is the same model as Guinevere, Barley’s van from Onward.
Elio: In a photo on Mayor Jerry’s wall, you can spot a female Camp Carver scout, which is a direct nod to the characters in Elio.
Future Teases
Toy Story 5: On Mabel’s windowsill, there is a small toy of Atlas the Hippo, who is rumoured to be a major new character in the upcoming sequel.
Movie Tributes
Avatar: In one of the most “on the nose” references in Pixar history, Mabel describes the whole mind-transfer concept by saying it “is like Avatar!” It’s pretty rare to see them name-drop a non-Disney franchise so clearly!
Back to the Future: The character of Dr. Sam is heavily modelled after Doc Brown, right down to the hair and the eccentric scientist energy.
Frankenstein: The opening scene where the beaver comes to life is a shot-for-shot homage to the creation of Frankenstein’s Monster.
Jaws: Diane the Shark attacks with the exact movements of the shark from Jaws.
Free Willy: When Diane jumps over the dam to help put out the fire, the shot is a perfect recreation of the famous Free Willy jump.
The Terminator: The robotic “Hopper” suits and the final confrontation feature heavy nods to Terminator. Between the mechanical scanning and the red-glowing “eye” in the dark, it’s a clear tribute to the T-800.
It’s great to see Pixar finally leaning into the fan theories by showing Dr. Sam essentially “inventing” the tech we see in later movies. It makes the whole universe feel much more connected!
One Easter egg I actually did miss during my first watch was the Luxo Ball – I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for that yellow and red star on the rewatch!

What are your thoughts on the March lineup? Are you most excited for the MCU return or the Miley Cyrus special? Let me know in the comments!
I’ll be honest with you: compared to the massive start we had in January, February is looking like a bit of a weaker month for Disney+. There are no new blockbuster films or standout original series to add to your watchlist, but there is one major reason to keep that subscription active: The Muppets are back!
It has been a long time coming, but seeing Kermit and the gang return to the original Muppet Theatre stage is easily the highlight of the month for me. Beyond that, we’ve got some deep-dives into Imagineering and the return of some fan-favourite series.
Here is the breakdown of what’s hitting Disney+ this February.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and Disney fans of all ages – welcome! 2025 proved to be a whirlwind year for the Walt Disney Company, with a massive slate of releases across both TV and film. From live-action remakes that redefined nostalgia to original hits that broke the mould, it has been a year of big risks and even bigger magic.
The votes are in, the envelopes are sealed, and the stage is set. Without further ado, welcome to the Steamboat Charlie 2025 Disney Awards!
1. Best Original Song
The Criteria: This category celebrates the track that defined the year’s musical landscape – the one that felt like an instant Disney classic.
🏆 The Winner: Waiting on a Wish (Snow White)
Why it won: Despite the box office flop that Snow White proved to be, it’s hard to disagree that the soundtrack was incredibly catchy! “Waiting on a Wish” was absolutely the pick of the bunch, becoming an instant Princess powerhouse ballad. It’s little surprise to hear that the song was written by Pasek & Paul, the legendary songwriters behind The Greatest Showman. This was the track I found myself playing late into 2025, and it serves as proof that even when a movie is divisive, Disney can still deliver a timeless musical masterpiece.
Notable Mentions:“Burning Love” (Lilo & Stitch) by Nyjah Music & Zyah Rhythm, “Zoo” (Zootopia 2) by Shakira.
2. The Sidekick Spotlight (Best Side Character)
The Criteria: This award is for the supporting character who stole the show, often overshadowing the lead with pure charisma or heart.
🏆 The Winner: Glordon (played by Remy Edgerly in Elio)
Why it won: In a year filled with live-action remakes and sequels, Pixar’s Elio went a little under the radar in 2025 – which is a shame, as the film is great fun! One character who did not go under the radar, however, was Glordon, Elio’s worm-like alien sidekick. It’s a classic Pixar move to take a “scary” alien and make him the sweetest character on screen. His willingness to be Elio’s “bargaining chip” was the funniest and most endearing part of the movie, and his friendship with Elio was the real emotional anchor of the story.
Notable Mentions:Pleakley (played by Billy Magnussen in Lilo & Stitch), K-2SO (played by Alan Tudyk in Andor)
3. Biggest Surprise Hit
The Criteria: I’m looking for the project that beat the odds, exceeded the hype, or simply proved the sceptics wrong.
🏆 The Winner: Pixar’s Win or Lose
Why it won: When I first heard that Pixar was creating a feature-length television series, I naively thought it wouldn’t quite live up to the Pixar magic we’ve come to expect from their movies and that this would simply end up a failed experiment. I couldn’t have been more wrong! Win or Lose got me gripped and engaged right the way through the series. There was absolutely so much I loved about it, from the unique and relatable characters to simply how compact and wild of a ride each episode ended up being! The series genuinely blew my expectations out of the water and ended up being one of my favourite watches of 2025.
Notable Mentions:Lilo & Stitch (Live-Action), The Fantastic Four: First Steps
4. Most Disappointing Release
The Criteria: Not necessarily a “bad” project, but the one where the final result didn’t quite live up to the massive potential or expectations.
🏆 The Winner: Snow White
Why it won: I guess it’s no surprise that Snow White comes in as the most disappointing release of 2025, given its poor box office results and negative reviews among critics. I’ll preface this by saying that I don’t actually think the film was as bad as it’s made out to be; I found the soundtrack to be incredibly catchy and the performance of Rachel Zegler was near faultless, in my opinion. I was, however, disappointed with the overall story and direction of the film. A live-action remake of one of the biggest Princesses in Disney’s IP should have felt fresh and exciting, but instead, Snow White ended up feeling like a poorly written pantomime put on the big screen.
Notable Mentions:Captain America: Brave New World, Tron: Ares
5. Best Performance
The Criteria: This award goes to the actor who gave the most nuanced, powerful, or memorable performance across Film or TV this year.
🏆 The Winner: Diego Luna as Cassian Andor
Why it won: There were a few brilliant performances across 2025, but in truth, there was only ever one winner for this award: Diego Luna and his portrayal of Cassian Andor in Season 2 of Andor. His performance throughout the series was delivered with a fantastic amount of depth and grit, and his character development from a cynical survivor to the rebel leader we see at the end of the series is sensational. Some of his quiet, tense interactions with Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgård) are among the best dialogue-led scenes in Star Wars history.
Notable Mentions:Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock (Daredevil: Born Again), Rachel Zegler as Snow White (Snow White)
6. The Golden Streamer for Best Series
The Criteria: My pick for the most well-rounded, addictive, and high-quality storytelling found on Disney+ or Hulu.
🏆 The Winner: Andor (Season 2)
Why it won: Again, maybe there are no surprises here with my pick for Best Series, given it picked up a whopping five Emmy wins out of 14 nominations. Andor Season 2 may just be one of the best series that Disney and Star Wars have released in the past 10 years, let alone in 2025! There’s just so much depth to the show, and it explores themes and narratives we’ve never-before-seen in any Star Wars media. The cast is faultless, the soundtrack is exquisite, and it serves as the perfect prelude to Rogue One. I can’t recommend the series enough!
Notable Mentions:Pixar’s Win or Lose, Daredevil: Born Again
7. The Platinum Mickey for Best Film
The Criteria: The big one. My favourite movie released under the Disney umbrella in 2025.
🏆 The Winner: Lilo & Stitch
Why it won: This was probably the toughest category to pick a winner in, and on any other day, Zootopia 2 or Elio could have taken the crown. However, I have to say, I absolutely loved the Lilo & Stitch live-action remake! These remakes often fail to live up to the original (see Snow White for example!), so I went in a little sceptical, worried that it would tarnish the legacy of the 2002 animated classic. Thankfully, my concerns were short-lived.
The film perfectly encapsulated all the charm and fun of the original while managing to feel like its own unique experience. The blend between live action and animation worked seamlessly – which was one of my biggest fears going in – and the bond between Lilo and Stitch felt more grounded and real than ever. It wasn’t a flawless film by any means, and critically Zootopia 2 was arguably “better,” but the sense of nostalgia and euphoria this movie gave me was unmatched. It made me feel like I was six years old again, falling in love with Stitch for the very first time. In a year of massive blockbusters, this was the one that truly captured the Disney magic.
Notable Mentions:Elio, Zootopia 2
