#HappyBirthdayMickey

Today – November 18th – marks the birthday celebration of Mickey Mouse, an iconic global character that has become the symbol of The Walt Disney Company. The birthday is tied to the November 18, 1928, release (at New York’s Colony Theater) of the movie Steamboat Willie, which was Mickey Mouse’s first theatrical film. To commemorate the occasion, Disney has produced a new music video, “What We Got,” which is premiering today on Mickey Mouse’s birthday. The video, which can be seen below, includes clips from Mickey’s recent worldwide tour, where he interacted with fans in Los Angeles, Kyoto, Shanghai, Rome, Paris, Cusco and Rio de Janeiro.
In February of 1996, The Walt Disney Company officially completed its acquisition of ABC, Inc. (which owns 80% of ESPN). As a result, ESPN is an indirect subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company.
