Watch: Disney’s Holiday Short ‘The Invisible Horse’ by Dougal Wilson

“Make the holidays magic.” Disney has debuted a brand new 2026 holiday short film titled The Invisible Horse, which is now available for streaming via YouTube (see below) or on Disney+. The Invisible Horse is a 3-minute short directed by the same filmmaker who recently made the Paddington Bear adventure sequel Paddington in Peru. In this story, Jack, a boy who believes he’s outgrown the magic of Christmas, is drawn into an adventure by a mysterious “invisible horse” that comes to his rural home. But can he tame it? When this strange invisible creature enters his life at Christmas, Jack is drawn into an adventure that rekindles his imagination and brings him closer to his family. It’s a story about finding wonder when you least expect it, and a reminder that the most meaningful holiday memories often begin with a little belief. Starring Reilly Greenwood, with Mya Poole, Christina McInulty, Bryce Martel, Valeria Jaraiz, Tajhana Taylor. I really like the way they include Woody from Toy Story into this story even though it’s a live-action short about a kid living on a ranch. Hard to verify if they used any AI to make this – hopefully not. Otherwise, it seems like a clever holiday ad that’s so much better than the AI slop churned out by corporations nowadays. // Continue Reading ›
