Pixar lays off less than 5% of its staff

Pixar Animation Studios has laid off less than 5% of its staff because of the delay of its upcoming movie “The Good Dinosaur,” according to a company spokesperson.

Earlier this year, “The Good Dinosaur” was originally supposed to be released on May 30, 2014, but it got pushed up to to Nov. 25, 2015. Which left Pixar without a movie in 2014.

“At Pixar, we are constantly re-evaluating the creative and business needs of our studio,” a Pixar spokesman said. “With the release date change of ‘The Good Dinosaur,’ we have realigned our production and support priorities, which includes a small reduction in our staffing levels.”

Pixar is owned by Walt Disney Studios and it employees over 1,200 people.

“The Good Dinosaur” parted ways with director Bob Peterson this past summer and they have not yet replaced him.
