The Disney Store is taking inspiration from their Japanese shops with an adorable range dedicated to the sakura season. In case all the spring products are neglecting some fans, Truffle Shuffle is inviting the Disney Villains to your coffee break. And Lego has unveiled the latest Mandalorian set, which coincides with Season 3 on Disney Plus.
Originating from Disney Store Japan, the Disney Store Winnie the Pooh Sakura collection features fine details such as an applique cherry blossom, embroidery and soft plush fur.
On this occasion, there is a price difference between Europe and the UK, over and above the usual exchange rate. The medium size Winnie the Pooh is priced at Ā£20 or ā¬32.90, the large size at Ā£25 or ā¬38.00. The Disney Store Piglet Sakura plush is priced at Ā£20 or ā¬32.90 and is only available in medium size. Winnie and Piglet are joined by Chip and Dale, who are presented together for Ā£36 or ā¬54.00, also in medium size.
Truffle Shuffle, the online Emporium of the fandom, is giving fans of Disney Villains a treat with the release of a new mug. The black mug costs Ā£9.99 and the Incredibly Fabulous design celebrates Ursula, Cruella and Maleficent.
Of course, the trio of villains is led by Ursula, who will soon be reincarnated on screen in the live-action film The Little Mermaid.
A new Lego Star Wars, Spider Tank set is scheduled for release on August 1, 2023. Disney and Lego announced the new set a few days ago, with the upcoming Lego Mandalorian set featuring the Mandalorian, Bo-Katan Kryze and Grogu.
But letās be honest, all the hype has been about the new darksaber design which follows a more realistic custom design. The set contains 526 pieces, including the famous darksaber, a jetpack, blastersā¦ and the parts needed to build the Spider Tank, of course. Pre-orders are already open for the Lego Spider Tank set, which is priced at $49.99, Ā£46.99 and ā¬52.99.
Has Jane made you want to take out your wallet with all her shopping ideas? Donāt put it away too quickly: some of the news in this section might also make you want to take a look.
For the moment, letās stay reasonable with news that doesnāt cost anything. Indeed, the company with the big ears has released some information about upcoming films. We reveal it all to you.
It was one of the biggest announcements of the last few days.
The Little Mermaid, one of Disneyās biggest animated classics, has been given a new poster and trailer for its live-action remake.
As a reminder, the adaptation of the cult film will be released on May 24.
Directed by Rob Marshall and scripted by David Magee, the film will star Halle Bailey in the title role, Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric, and the amazing David Diggs (seen in Hamilton) as the voice of Sebastian.
At first glance, the film seems very faithful to the original. Like The Lion King or Aladdin, there is a lot of the identity of the cartoon transposed into live-action. We hope for some liberties in order to give meaning to the adaptation.
This trailer seems to focus on the father-daughter relationship. This will probably give even more depth to Arielās fiery and rebellious side.
In any case, the images are particularly beautiful and allow an immersive aspect, we let you enjoy them without further delay.
One of the worldās most popular science fiction sagas is about to make a comeback.
Ridley Scottās cult classic Alien has begun shooting its ninth installment. The new film in the popular Alien saga started shooting on 9 March in Budapest, Hungary.
The film is directed by Fede Alvarez but still produced by 20th Century Fox (the iconic studio that produced Avatar, The Greatest Showman, and Free Guy, which was recently shown on Disney +).
For the moment, we have little information. We know the cast (Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu) and we know that the great Ridley Scott will still produce.
Letās go to the small screen this time. Disney +, our favourite streaming platform, is going to be in the news again, for good and for bad.
Recently, two series had already been cancelled on Disney +.
The exceptional series Big Shot on the one hand, and the relaunch of the cult franchise āThe Mighty Ducksā on the other. Two hard blows for the platform which was losing qualitative saga. If you havenāt seen them yet, we strongly encourage you to go and see these nuggets.
This time, itās the re-launch of Willow that is the talk of the town. Indeed, the cult film had the right to a sequel in series available directly on Disney +.
After only one season, the series Willow has also been cancelled. It is not a question of quality or audience here, but of profitability. Indeed, the platformās poor results have led the company to review its strategy. Exclusive content should be significantly reduced in the future and the platform should return to its roots by offering content that has already won over the public.
It is difficult to know more at the moment. The poor results and the recent change in management are leading to new strategies, but there is a lot of speculation about them at the moment. Letās wait and see. Weāll be sure to keep you posted as we learn more.
Disney +ās strategy is changing, but rest assured: some original productions are still going ahead.
This is notably the case of Only Murder In The Building. With a cult trio and crazy investigations, this nugget offers undeniable charm and a five-star cast.
This exceptional cast is growing as we recently saw the first images of Meryl Streep as a guest star in season 3. The spot was aired at the Academy Awards ceremony and promises to be as colourful as the previous seasons.
We told you at the beginning of the section: you might want to shop here again. Weāll be bringing you the new games right away.
We were already talking about this game a few months ago because of its postponement, but this time itās because of good news that the game is being talked about!
This racing game, inspired by Mario Kart, will allow you to experience car races in the Disney Pixar universe, with characters such as Mickey, Belle, Jack Sparrow, Sully, Mulan, Hercules, Baloo, Megaraā¦ In short, a wide range of characters!
The game has just been given a release date! Indeed, already available for pre-order, the game will be available in early access on April 18th 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, XBOX and Switch.
Indeed, this free-2-play game will be free at its release, but if you wish, you can pay to play it earlier and get rewards according to the price.
The character of choice will be from this list: Baloo, Belle, The Beast, Elizabeth Swann, Mowgly, or Shang.
If you want to pre-order the game, itās here, and if not, get into the mood with this fun-filled trailer!
Letās finish this issue of Worlds of Disney with my favourite subject of the moment: Lorcana.
The future card game to be played and collected in the Disney universe is still being talked about, and the least we can say is that it makes you want to play! Itās extremely appealing!
After unveiling new cards such as Tinkerbell or Gantu, this time itās the āIllumineerās Troveā set that is revealed in video:
Unfortunately only available in English, this box set proves that it will be well filled. Will you give in to temptation?
Our flight on Worlds of Disney is now over and you are back home. We hope you enjoyed your trip with us! Donāt miss our next issue for a new world tour of Disney news.
