Disney just joined hands with Adobe for a major deal involving Artificial Intelligence. The technology has taken the world by storm, and Hollywood is not an exception. The conversation about AI has left people divided on whether the technology can be used responsibly, while others reject the idea. 

Amid much debate, some have begun to explore the opportunities that the technology offers. One of the latest to make a major decision is Disney. 

Longtime business partners, Adobe and Disney, have signed a multi-year deal to work on emerging technologies such as “responsibly developed AI" to support their creative team. As per the deal, Adobe will provide Disney with early access to its latest AI, creative, and media technologies. This will also include Adobe Firefly (generative AI for creatives), Adobe Firefly Foundry (proprietary AI models), Adobe Premiere (video editing), Adobe Photoshop (digital imaging), and much more. 

With this deal, Adobe will have the opportunity to promote its technology and innovation. And that will begin with Disney’s platforms, including Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort, Disney Cruise Line, ESPN, and StudioLAB, through industry events and much more. This was announced during Adobe MAX 2026, which took place in Miami on November 11 and 12. 

“Disney has always embraced innovation, and this alliance with Adobe builds on a longstanding relationship between two companies that share a deep commitment to creativity,” Becca Vodnoy, SVP of corporate alliances for Disney, said (via Variety). 

This means Disney will work with Adobe to create special AI models using Disney’s own characters, stories, and visual styles. These AI models will be designed to help artists and creative teams make new content faster while focusing on human creativity. Moreover, these are reported to be commercially safe and production-ready outputs.

Now, Disney’s collaboration with AI was hinted much earlier. 

Disney+ planned a major change to make watching content more fun and interactive. The platform may let users create and share 30-second videos featuring characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars. It could also introduce game-like features, allowing viewers to enjoy stories in new and exciting ways.

This approach to using AI was announced by Disney+ CEO during the fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings call. The company wants fans to enjoy AI tools while making sure its characters and content remain protected.
