Avengers, Star Wars, Alien, and other Disney classics to be reimagined in a mobile-optimized WEBTOON format.

During the Q2 IR session, WEBTOON Entertainment officially announced a content collaboration with Disney. Through this collaboration, around 100 of Disney’s blockbuster titles will be released sequentially in a dedicated Disney section within WEBTOON’s English-language app.

​

We believe this collaboration will further strengthen WEBTOON Entertainment’s global presence and platform credibility, while Disney expands its reach among younger users and amplifies its content influence by building new fandoms.

​

​

“Our collaboration with WEBTOON will allow us to expand our beloved franchise universes on a best-in-class digital platform,” said Daniel Fink, SVP, Head of Digital Innovation, Disney Consumer Products.

​

“This collaboration with Disney is just the start! WEBTOON will continue to lead the way in making beloved stories easily accessible to fans worldwide, anytime and anywhere,” said Yongsoo Kim, Chief Strategy Officer and Head of Global WEBTOON.
