Status: Partially Found

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. The 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 shut down on May 26th, 2006. As of 2006, Circle 7 Animation had 168 employees.

Cancelled Projects

Toy Story 3

Not to be confused with Pixar’s 2010 sequel film of the same name, Toy Story 3 focused on a malfunctioning Buzz Lightyear who is shipped off back to the original Buzz Lightyear factory located Taiwan. But as it turns out, the Buzz Lightyear brand has been recalled, so Woody and the gang ship themselves to Taiwan to rescue Buzz.

In an earlier draft written by Bill and Cheri Steinkellner (of Teacher’s Pet fame) involved Andy visiting his grandmother’s house, and Woody and the gang, then end up getting trapped in Andy's grandma’s attic. The script for this early draft is available to purchase on a website called scriptcity.com for $15.[1] On September 5th, 2019, Lost Media Wiki user YoshiKiller2S bought the script and has since made it public.[2]

Monsters, Inc. 2: Lost in Scaradise

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

When Pixar got the rights to their characters and the making of sequels back upon the merger with Disney in 2007, the project was re-made as a prequel tilted Monsters University, released to theatres on June 21st, 2013.

Finding Nemo 2

Not to be confused with Pixar's 2016 sequel film Finding Dory, Finding Nemo 2 focused on Nemo reuniting with his long lost brother, "Remy." Marlin (Nemo's father), then gets captured and sent to an aquarium named "PLANET BLUE," so now Nemo, Remy and Dory have to go save him. No concept art has been released of this project.

On October 13th, 2018, Lost Media Wiki user Veggiefinder found the entire script for Finding Nemo 2 on the official Raindance Film Festival website.[3]

Availability

Very little video footage of these projects was ever released, most likely because Circle 7 Animation was shut down before they could produce any more video material. The only images to have surfaced 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.
