Josh D’Amaro Talks Figment Movie Possibility… But Don’t Pack Your Imagination Just Yet
If you’ve ever walked through EPCOT humming “One Little Spark,” you’re not alone… and apparently, neither is Disney leadership. Everyone’s favorite purple dragon, Figment, once again fluttered into the spotlight during the latest Disney Annual Shareholders Meeting.

During his first shareholder meeting as CEO, Josh D’Amaro was asked the question fans keep bringing back like a catchy refrain… will Figment ever get his own movie? His answer was filled with appreciation but stopped just short of a greenlight. D’Amaro acknowledged Figment’s enduring popularity, calling him a character who continues to inspire creativity across generations, which honestly feels like the most on-brand compliment a dragon of imagination could receive.
He also gave a nod to the whimsical Figment short “How Not to Draw,” narrated by Neil Patrick Harris, which celebrates the character’s playful, chaotic charm. If you’ve seen it, you know it’s peak Figment energy… a little unpredictable, a little magical, and completely delightful.
That said, there were no official announcements about a Figment movie moving forward. While rumors have swirled for years, including a previously reported project involving Seth Rogen’s Point Grey Pictures, nothing concrete has emerged from Disney just yet. Even past discussions under Bob Iger never quite sparked into reality.
Still, D’Amaro emphasized that Disney is always exploring new ways for fans to connect with Figment, which feels like a gentle “never say never” wrapped in a cloud of purple imagination dust.

For now, Figment remains right where fans love him most… inside the Imagination Pavilion, stealing hearts, sparking creativity, and proving that sometimes one little spark is all you need… even if it hasn’t turned into a feature film just yet.
