Disney plans to release fewer movies and “focus more on quality” in its key franchises, following of a string of high-profile flops at the box office.
“I’ve been working hard with the studio to reduce output and focus more on quality,” Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, told Wall Street analysts.
Over the coming months this will include sequels including Pixar’s Inside Out 2, Moana 2 and Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine.
The Hollywood giant is cutting back on productions from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which ramped up releases in recent years as Disney embarked upon an expensive bid to take on Netflix.
