• On February 16, 2023, following the commercial failures of the company’s Strange World and Pixar Animation Studios’ Lightyear (both 2022), Disney reportedly considered extending the theatrical windows for both Wish and Pixar’s Elemental in hopes of bringing families back to theaters.

• In July 2023, it was reported that Disney was considering postponing some of their 2023 releases, including Wish, due to the ongoing Hollywood strikes prohibiting talent from promoting them.
• This film was dedicated to Burny Mattinson a Disney legend who died on February 27 2023 and has worked at Walt Disney Animation Studios for over 70 years.
