“The Invisible Horse” Short Arrives On Disney+ For The Holidays
Every year, Disney releases a brand-new holiday short film as part of its Make the Holidays Magic” campaign, which aims to bring together festive experiences, entertainment and gifting, alongside initiatives supporting children and families.
This year’s new original short film has been directed by Dougal Wilson and is called “The Invisible Horse”. It’s available to stream now on both Disney+ and YouTube, just in time for the holidays
“The Invisible Horse” celebrates imagination and family togetherness at Christmas and tells the story of Jack, a boy who believes he has outgrown the magic of the season. When a mysterious 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.

Asad Ayaz, Chief Marketing and Brand Officer, The Walt Disney Company, said in a statement regarding the release of the new short:
“Disney has long been part of the traditions, memories, and moments that make the holiday season so special for families around the world. This season, we’re bringing the best of Disney together to give families more ways to make the holidays magic: a trip they’ll talk about for years, a new favorite to watch together, the perfect gift under the tree and, for the children and families who need it most, a wish come true.”
One of the best things about this film is that Disney is aiming to raise awareness and funds for the Make-A-Wish charity, while also bringing that extra festive magic to children and families across the world, through special surprises and unforgettable experiences as part of its wish-granting programme at its theme parks like Disneyland Paris.
Roger’s Take: Disney always knows how to hit the emotional heartstrings of anyone watching it, and I think this is another slam dunk; it’s simple, it’s effective, and more importantly, it has the music from one of my favourite Disney movies as a kid, “Robin Hood”, so it’s an easy win for me. It’s also got a lovely twist at the end that brings everything back to the lovely Christmas theme!
“The Invisible Horse” is now available on Disney+ and on YouTube.
