List of Walt Disney Animation Studios films

<!-- NOTES BEFORE MODIFYING CONTENT First, don't divide the article.

Second, please note that many films that you might think belong in this list, for different reasons. These include:


 * Direct-to-video films.Please read the first two paragraphs. See "List of Disney home entertainment" for direct-to-video films.
 * Pixar films, whether made before or after Disney acquired Pixar. (Pixar remains a separate production unit within Disney. There have been no WDAS/Pixar co-productions as of 05/01/2014; if there is one, its inclusion in the list will have to be determined then.)
 * Marvel films, whether made before or after Disney acquired Marvel. (WDAS has not made any Marvel films as of 05/01/2012; if WDAS produces a fully-animated Marvel film in the future, it may be added to the list. However, Big Hero 6 qualifies because it's officially WDAS.)
 * Muppets or Bear in the Big Blue House films, whether made before or after Disney acquired those properties from The Jim Henson Company. (WDAS has not made any Muppet or Bear films as of 05/01/2012; if WDAS produces a fully-animated Muppet or Bear film in the future, it may be added to the list.)
 * Any other puppet films, even if produced by Disney.
 * Any animated films that you thought were from Disney, but are not: Anastasia (produced by Fox Animation Studios & distributed by 20th Century Fox), Quest for Camelot or The Iron Giant (both produced by Warner Bros. Feature Animation & distributed by Warner Bros.), etc.
 * Piglet's Big Movie and The Tigger Movie, produced by DisneyToon studios
 * All sequels (except The Rescuers Down Under, Fantasia 2000, and Winnie the Pooh, which were produced by WDAS and included in the canon) were produced by DisneyToon Studios. All except for the three WDAS-produced sequels, Return to Neverland and The Jungle Book 2 were released direct-to-video. DisneyToon productions are listed in a separate section below.
 * Live-action Disney films that include animated bits or sequences (even if produced by WDAS), such as Song of the South, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Pete's Dragon and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Those are listed below in another section. An exception is Dinosaur, which is a film with a live-action setting and animated characters, but is officially included in the canon.
 * Films distributed by Disney but not produced by Disney, such as The Wild. Those are listed below in other sections.

Third, please do *not* use the spine numbers of UK Disney releases in the WDAS section. Those numbers omit Winnie-the-Pooh. Thus, UK spine numbers 51 and up will *not* match this list. This list conforms to the official WDAS canon in the U.S. (where WDAS is based), *NOT* the UK.

Finally, please do not add films to the bottom of this list without a reliable source. Reliable sources can be searched by doing a Google News search on Disney. One important note is that the source MUST reveal that it is animated. No official info to date reveals Tux is animated. One special note is that although some sources say that King of the Elves will be released in 2013, those sources are old, predating when it was revealed that a Pixar film about dinosaurs was confirmed to have a fall 2013 release. --> This is a list of films from Walt Disney Animation Studios, an American animation studio headquartered in Burbank, California, and formerly known as Walt Disney Feature Animation, Walt Disney Productions and Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, which creates animated feature films for The Walt Disney Company. The studio has produced 54 feature films, beginning with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), and most recently with Big Hero 6 (2014). Their 55th feature, Zootopia, is currently in production and is scheduled for release on March 4, 2016. Three features are also in development, with Moana being set for release on November 23, 2016, and Giants, an untitled film in 2018, and a sequel to Frozen.

Moana
Ron Clements and John Musker are working on a computer-animated musical film, Moana, set in Polynesia. The film is scheduled to be released on November 23, 2016. It is described as a "mythic adventure set around 2000 years ago and across a series of islands in the South Pacific." The main character is to be Moana Waialiki, a teenage sea-voyaging enthusiast and the only daughter of a chief in a long line of navigators. When her family needs her help, she sets off on an epic journey to find a fabled island. During her journey, she teams up with her hero, demigod Maui, and encounters enormous sea creatures, underworlds, demigods and spirits taken from Polynesian mythology. The music for the film is to be composed by Mark Mancina and arranged by Dave Metzger. On December 2, 2014, Dwayne Johnson was reportedly in talks to voice the demigod Maui in the film, and was confirmed the next day to be cast in the role and Johnson revealed on Twitter that the film will be a musical.

After directing The Princess and the Frog, Clements and Musker started working on an adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Mort, but rights problems prevented them from continuing with the project. To avoid similar problems, they pitched three new ideas, and in 2011 started developing the film based on an original idea.

Moana will be Clements and Musker's first computer-animated film. Although initially rumoured to be made in the hand-drawn/computer-animated technique introduced with Disney's short film Paperman, Musker said that it is "far too early to apply the Paperman hybrid technique to a feature. The Meander digital in-betweening interface still has a host of production issues (including color) that need to be perfected." According to Bleeding Cool, the film will feature a new, painterly style of CG.

Giants
Nathan Greno (Tangled) is working on Giants, a computer-animated film, loosely based on the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk. It will be released on March 9, 2018.

Frozen 2
On March 12, 2015, Disney announced that a sequel to Frozen is in development, and that co-directors Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck and producer Peter Del Vecho would be returning. A release date has not been announced.
