The co-director of the latest Disney animated film, Wish, has revealed that the studio is actively considering returning to 2D animation for some of their future projects.While speaking with The Direct, Wish co-director Chris Buck was asked about 2D animation at Disney, especially as his new film sports a blend of 3D and 2D animation. Buck said “I think, absolutely,” when asked about Disney using 2D animation once again. “This film [Wish] was inspired, obviously, by the legacy and the 2D animation. And the look has a somewhat 2D look with the lines on the characters. We did early tests with Star [the lead character of the new film] as 2D. But yeah, I think [Disney] will keep exploring.”This quote comes as Disney has largely moved to 3D animation in recent years, with popular movies such as the Toy Story franchise and Cars, but the history of the animation department at the studio is firmly rooted in 2D. Many of the most iconic stories at Disney, such as Snow White and Cinderella, were brought to life using 2D fashion. When speaking about Wish’s unique visual style, Buck said, “The nice thing is, we started with some shorts, you got Paperman and Feast and Far From the Tree that sort of explored the look that we adapted, and we kept evolving. We had never done it in full feature before. So that was going to be a challenge. I would say absolutely. You just don’t know what the next thing is going to be.”Cruella Should Have Been an Original Character
