“UP: Live Action (2025)” Is Just Fan Speculation – No Confirmation from Disney or Pixar

“Disney is taking us back to Paradise Falls—but this time, in breathtaking live-action. UP: Live Action (2025) reimagines the beloved 2009 animated masterpiece with a fresh lens, starring Hollywood legend Harrison Ford as the grumpy yet endearing Carl Fredricksen and rising talent Jett Klyne as the optimistic Wilderness Explorer, Russell” is fan speculation, but the reality is:

No confirmation from Disney or Pixar
Vivo Insider quotes Pixar creative director Pete Docter as saying that Pixar has no intention of making live-action versions of its classic animated films, because it is the animation that brings the story to life

Business Insider also mentioned that the Up project is just part of a long list of possibilities that “experts” and analysts have put forward, with no official development signal. This is part of an analysis of the future of Disney’s live-action, and there is clearly no confirmation from Disney.

Leaks mostly come from unofficial sources

The “teaser trailer” videos for Up: Live Action (2025) with Harrison Ford – Jett Klyne all come from personal YouTube, Facebook or Dailymotion channels, for example the YouTube video posted 7–8 months ago, not from the official Disney/Pixar channel

🇺🇸 US/North American opinions on Reddit
On r/boxoffice, some users discuss Disney’s live-action trend and put Up on the “speculation list”, but they also emphasize that there is no evidence or specific action from Disney filmmakers:

“They’re gonna start doing Pixar live-action remakes (like the Incredibles and Up! and Toy Story)… but it’s been radio silence on it for over 3 years.”

This shows that fans are suspicious but have no basis for confirmation.

Currently, the UP: Live Action (2025) project with Harrison Ford – Jett Klyne is just a rumor, with NO confirmation from:

Disney (about production, casting or release schedule),

Pixar (no move to make live-action classic animated films),

Major newspapers such as Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, Deadline – have not published any articles related to this live-action Up.

If Disney really launches the project, you will easily see the information on top reputable sources such as The Hollywood Reporter, Variety, Deadline, or the official Disney/Pixar news site.

If you see a trailer in the form of a “fan trailer” or from an unofficial channel, you should consider that it is just a fan-created product, not a promotional material from Disney.
