"Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, too? Disney risks losing copyright protection on some characters."

"Without a last-minute reprieve, the House of Mouse could lose enforcement rights for a franchise worth billions."

"Few  would dispute that the success of Disney is the result of the company's large and ever-growing treasure trove of intellectual property. With the introduction of Steamboat Willie in 1928 – the first film starring Mickey Mouse – Disney has amassed a massive catalog of characters that is the envy of media companies everywhere."

"However, as we close in on the end of 2021, the House of Mouse is at risk of losing control of some of the company's most beloved characters, which are scheduled to enter the public domain in the coming year."

"Of all the characters in the Disney archive, those that appeared in the seminal Winnie-the-Pooh books by A.A. Milne are among the most cherished. The characters were based on Milne's son Christopher Robin and his stuffed animals, including Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, Piglet, Kanga, and Roo."
