Disney has announced that 28 newly restored classic animated shorts will be coming to Disney+ throughout this year starting in July.
The selected shorts include Silly Symphony classics and various cartoons featuring characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. The Kevin Schaeffer-led Walt Disney Studios Restoration and Preservation team spearheaded the restoration alongside Disney legends like Eric Goldberg.
“We are thrilled to be working with Kevin Schaeffer and the Studio’s restoration team in presenting these beautifully restored versions of classic Disney animated shorts,” special projects and 2D animation producer Dorothy McKim stated. “Two of our top artistic talents have lent their expertise and passion to the project to make sure that the films look their very best, and are authentic to the creative intentions of the original filmmakers. We’re very excited to be sharing these wonderful shorts with the Disney+ audience. They have never looked or sounded better.”
