DisneyNature's Elephant

Post by UmbrellaFish »

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... arity.html

Ever since Harry and Meghan announced they were stepping back from their status as senior royals, rumors have been swirling that the Sussexes were already angling for partnerships with different companies, including Disney. This is the first article I’ve seen give a specific reason for such a partnership.

At first I didn’t believe it because the Daily Mail is usually BS, but the story is actually sourced to The Times which I think is considered a much more reputable paper. What could the voice-over have been for? Unlikely it was for the animation department, unless it’s only a cameo. Maybe something for Epcot or a short subject for Disney+?

Re: Meghan Markle to provide voice-over for Disney?

Interesting. It can't be something too out there due to her status. I don't see her doing anything for Disney Channel, for example. Perhaps narration for an educational project? A Disneynature film? Could it be a small role in The One and Only Ivan? The book it's based on is highly regarded and it's about animals which she clearly cares about.

Definitely the beginning of new media projects for the Sussexes. Will be interesting to see if they stay at Disney or not...

Just posted about the April 3rd releases in the Dolphin Reef thread. I'm so excited for new Disney nature! I want Penguins to be released, either on D+ or disc...

I let my Disney+ subscription lapse a month or two ago and had my mom sign up for the free trial for Frozen II, but the new nature docs and Onward are definitely encouragement to sign up for another month again!

I didn't realize Meghan and Harry had a lot of love for elephants and their preservation. Very interested in this now!
