Walt Disney Animation Studios will release a new Donald short for the first time in 63 years.For 90 years, Donald Duck has been a favorite character among children and adults alike.
"The U.S. government came to Walt Disney and said, 'Can we use your duck?' At that point, they started using him to do things like "The New Spirit' and 'The Spirit of '43,'" she explained. The two shorts were meant to encourage people to pay their taxes in order to help the war effort During WWII. "We're trying to stay true to trends. We're trying to stylize Donald character art as well, but keeping his character integrity, his personality.
