Disney+ Adds Content Advisory to Films Such as Peter Pan, Dumbo, & Others

If you've been on Disney+ recently, you may have spotted a new addition to select movies and streaming series. Disney+ has added a content advisory to select films, including several Disney classics.

As shared by Scott Gustin on Twitter: “Disney+ has added an on-screen content advisory to films that include “negative depictions and/or mistreatment of people or cultures.” The message displays prior to several films including Lady and the Tramp, Jungle Book Aristocats, Dumbo, Peter Pan, and Swiss Family Robinson.”

Disney+ displays an on-screen advisory about outdated cultural depictions, with a disclaimer and web address, as fans wait for Peter Pan to play in 7 seconds—an experience similar to watching family-friendly classics on Main Street, U.S.A. or at a Disney Parks movie night.

Scott Gustin goes on to share: “There are several other films on Disney+ that will display the content advisory, but here are four examples provided by Disney “along with an explanation of some of the negative depictions in each title.”

Captain Hook and his pirate crew gather around Peter Pan, who is on the ground as the Jolly Roger ship looms in the background, recreating an iconic Neverland adventure scene familiar to Disney+ fans.
