    Wouldn’t it be cheaper to release a direct-to-streaming animated sequel/spin-off?

      My guess is no?

      We used to have direct to VHS/DVD sequels to a lot of Disney films. In fact Lilo & Stich had both a film and TV series.

      I’m guessing someone ran the numbers and remaking existing films must be the most profitable. Plus I’m guessing the watch numbers for older content, like Lilo & Stich and sequels, increases which improves Disney+ retention.
