Here are the big names that we know about in the movie: A new Disney film is set to hit theaters on Friday, and a new Disney park is opening in Orlando on Thursday.
It’s all part of Disney’s push to make a splash on the holiday season with a movie and a ride based on the 1881 classic Pocahntas.
But the movie is also getting its fair share of controversy.
Disney is also putting on its own film festival this year in hopes of raising money for the International Womens Day Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to making more women aware of their rights.
Disney’s decision to film a movie that promotes gender inequality is nothing new.
The company, which has released a series of movies about female heroes, is also behind an animated TV series that’s been canceled after just one season.
The Disney Parks Blog reported earlier this year that Disney had made more than $7 billion on the film.
So what’s changed?
The movie has received mixed reviews from critics, who’ve expressed concerns about the way it portrays women and women-owned businesses.
A recent survey by the Associated Press found that only 32 percent of Americans thought Pocahuntas depicted a fairytale, while 58 percent thought it portrayed “the oppression of women.”
Meanwhile, a poll from the University of California found that nearly 60 percent of people polled thought Pocahs was “anti-woman.”
Meanwhile some are calling on Disney to release the film without Disney characters, such as Pocahauntas, Pocohauntas characters or Disney characters that aren’t part of the story.
Some are calling for the company to take away all Disney characters.
And there’s a growing backlash against Disney over its role in promoting women’s rights.
The film’s director, J.J. Abrams, has said the film will not be a “sexist” film.
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with women and men playing off each other,” Abrams told Variety.
“The women are playing off the men and the men are playing on the women.
We’re not playing the men off each others.
We have a relationship.”
But the film has also been met with criticism for being a “white savior” movie, as it glorifies Pocahottas’ journey from slave to free woman and uses black characters to highlight white supremacy.
The backlash was especially intense after the Disney film, which had been in development for years, was announced in November, 2017.
Critics called it “a blatant whitewashing” of the history of slavery and other oppression against African-Americans.
Some called it a “blackwashing,” and others questioned why Disney would make a film about the Civil War and slavery.
“This is a very divisive and divisive time in American history,” Jennifer Lopez wrote on Twitter in response to the film’s release.
“In this day and age, I find this decision so disturbing.
This film is racist, and I find it so shameful that a Disney princess would be a part of this film.”
In a tweet later, Lopez said she “can’t stand to watch the Disney movie in its entirety, with Pocahunts, Disney characters and the racist imagery that comes with it.”
In the film, Pocahs journey to freedom is the central theme, and the film features plenty of moments of bravery.
“For me, the film was meant to celebrate the fact that the brave women of the Civil Rights Movement fought for what was right,” a Disney spokesperson told Variety at the time.
“But it is also meant to empower those who are struggling, and it is meant to give those who have the most in common the chance to live a better life.”
And in the film Disney characters including Pocahunta and Pocahutas are the main characters, not characters of color.
“There’s no white savior in Pocahoots story,” said a spokesperson for the Civil Justice Center, a group that advocates for equality for women and minorities.
“It is meant as a celebration of women and for all of the brave people who have made our world a better place.”
However, the group has criticized the film for whitewash in its portrayal of the African-American experience in the Civil Wars, where white supremacists fought against the black-led efforts to bring equality to the country.
The Civil Justice group said it was “deeply troubled” by the film and that “Disney’s representation of the Black experience in this film is offensive.”
In November 2017, the Walt Disney Studios released a statement on Twitter that said the movie was “taken from a real-life Civil War history.”
“The Civil War was fought for the equality of African- Americans, not the supremacy of white men,” the statement read.
“We are thankful for the bravery of the American Civil War veterans, the brave men and women who fought for justice and equality for all Americans.”
But critics were quick to note the statement didn’t really say anything about the film
