July was a BIG month for Disney World fireworks.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
Happily Ever After at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT Forever at EPCOT both returned on July 1st! Although both of these shows are closing in September, we have some new nighttime shows to look forward to for the 50th anniversary celebrations.

New Goofy Shorts are Coming to Disney+ in August!
Between Loki and Black Widow, July was a GREAT month for Disney+ binging, especially for all the Marvel fans out there! But don’t worry, there are tons of exciting premieres to look forward to in August too, including a brand-new series of animated shorts starring the one-and-only GOOFY!
We found out recently that Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney over Marvel’s Black Widow being released on Disney+ at the same time as it was released in theaters.
Black Widow
The actress is claiming breach of contract in her lawsuit, saying that Disney’s Marvel Entertainment guaranteed her an exclusively theatrical release of the film. The lawsuit claims that due to her salary being based in large part on the box-office performance of the film, Johansson will lose out on $50 million. After the news broke yesterday, Disney reportedly released a statement as a response to the lawsuit. Now, Johansson’s agency is coming to her defense.
Marvel’s Black Widow was released earlier this month after being repeatedly delayed due to the global pandemic.
Black Widow
It was released in theaters and on Disney+ with premier access. But now, star of the film, Scarlett Johansson, is suing Disney over the way the movie was released in both theaters and on the streaming service simultaneously, claiming it was a breach of contract.

Disney has made several movies based off of popular attractions from the parks.
Pirates of the Caribbean
The most famous (and successful) of those being the Pirates of the Caribbean film series. There’s also the much anticipated Jungle Cruise movie, which comes out July 30th! One ride that’s getting a second shot at a live-action movie is the Haunted Mansion. Disney already gave us the 2003 film with Eddie Murphy, but it only achieved moderate success. However, we know that a NEW live-action Haunted Mansion movie is in the works and we just found out who might be in the cast!
