From “Cars 2” to “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” Disney is returning to the animated hits and franchise films that have served it — and theater owners — well in the past.
During a two-hour presentation at the annual CinemaCon convention for exhibitors on Tuesday afternoon, the studio trotted out “The Muppets” stars Amy Adams and Jason Segel, “Pirates 4” director Rob Marshall and producer Jerry Bruckheimer.
Plus, “Cars 2” star Larry the Cable Guy gave exhibitors a flavor for the sequel-heavy slate. “This second movie is so good, I’m ashamed I was in the first one,” he quipped to the crowd.
