Disney Studio’s release schedule for 2009 and 2010 includes 10 films, which is more than any other studio, with Bolt barking up a storm this weekend. The two-digit number is caused by the unspooling of re-rendering Beauty and the Beast, Toy Story and Toy Story 2 in 3-D, respectively. 

Obviously, the Beast is first. The process should take about 9 months but a release date hasn’t been set.

Producer Don Hahn stated in Variety, “By going back to the original animation files, which have been carefully archived for 17 years, and using the separate background, effects and character animation elements, we’re able to come up with a fun and unique 3-D experience for existing and new fans of the film.”

Next year’s lineup includes the Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Movie, Pixar’s Up, Jerry Bruckheimer’s G-Force, and Robert Zemeckis’ Disney’s A Christmas Carol.

In 2010, the lineup includes Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, Toy Story 3, Rapunzel, and Step Up 3.
