Fans were incredibly excited at the possibility of the Firefly movie Serenity getting a reboot due to a circulating poster of the movie.

The Walt Disney Company is historically known to be one of the biggest names in entertainment, and the primary reason for this is that the Mouse House has an eye for properties that work and that will be successful. The company has been at the forefront of the field for a while now (despite its recent box office struggles).

For these reasons, fans rejoiced when a movie poster circulated that implied Disney was renewing a beloved (and some would say, unfairly canceled) series.
