Disney Legends Bring Beloved Stories to Life in New Documentary

Filmmaker Leslie Iwerks explores the creative process behind Disney's theme parks in her new documentary, 'Disney Worldbuilders,' which premieres on Disney+ on August 20.

The film features interviews with top Disney creatives, including Jennifer Lee, James Cameron, and Jared Bush, who share their experiences bringing beloved stories to life in the parks.

Iwerks' own connection to Disney is deeply personal, her father, Donald Iwerks, spent over six decades working for the company, while her grandfather, Ub Iwerks, co-created Mickey Mouse with Walt Disney in 1928.

'Disney Worldbuilders' delves into the passion and dedication of these creatives, who embody Walt Disney's vision of 'imagination left in the world.'
