Status: Lost

In January 2004, Pixar announced they would not be renewing their agreement with Disney, due to rising tensions between the two companies. While Pixar left to find different distributors, Disney bought the rights to the Pixar characters and created Circle 7 Animation. This company was formed to make direct-to-video sequels of Pixar’s movies. Circle 7 Animation had 3 films in production, however, they didn’t get very far in production with their projects, as Michael Eisner (then-CEO of Disney) was kicked out, and Pixar was bought by Disney for approximately $7.4 billion. Thus, Circle 7 Animation was closed on May 26, 2006. As of 2006, Circle 7 Animation had 168 employees.

Toy Story 3

Not to get confused with Pixar’s film of the same name, Toy Story 3 focused on a malfunctioning Buzz Lightyear who is shipped off to Taiwan, the location of the Buzz Lightyear factory. But as it turns out, the Buzz Lightyear brand has been recalled, so Woody and the gang ship themselves to Taiwan to rescue Buzz.

Monsters Inc.: Lost in Scaradise

Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan enter Boo’s door to celebrate Boo’s birthday. However, Boo has grown up and moved, so Mike and Sulley go on a mission in the human world to search for Boo.

Finding Nemo 2

The plot for this film was never revealed, and no concept art has been released.

Availability

Very little video footage of these projects was ever released, most likely because Circle 7 Animation shut down before they could produce any more video material. The only images to surface of these projects are multiple pieces of concept art. It is unknown if Disney still has these scripts, as Pixar has stated that they will never look at the scripts.
