What is Disney+ Day?
Launched in 2021, Disney+ Day is an organized release day for various Disney projects. It is also a day when Walt Disney Company's business partners promote Disney+.
The projects debuting on Disney+ Day
The first project announced as part of the 2022 Disney+ Day is the highly-anticipated live-action/CGI hybrid film Pinocchio by the award-winning director/actor duo of Robert Zemeckis and Tom Hanks (Forrest Gump, The Polar Express, and Castaway). Hanks will play the tinkerer Geppetto and will be joined by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth (Pinocchio), Cynthia Erivo (Blue Fairy), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Jiminy Cricket), Keegan-Michael Key ('Honest' John), and more.
