Walt Disney Company layoffs

The Walt Disney Company has just issued a statement in response to the Crisis in Ukraine. In it, they have paused the release of theatrical films in Russia such as Turning Red.

Here is the official statement from Disney:

“Given the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and the tragic humanitarian crisis, we are pausing the release of theatrical films in Russia, including the upcoming Turning Red from Pixar. We will make future business decisions based on the evolving situation. In the meantime, given the scale of the emerging refugee crisis, we are working with our NGO partners to provide urgent aid and other humanitarian assistance to refugees.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to those in Ukraine.
