Disney+ Not Going Forward With ‘Nautilus’ UK Series As Part Of Cost-Cutting Content Removal

EXCLUSIVE: Nautilus, the UK live-action Captain Nemo series commissioned by Disney+ two years ago, is no longer headed to the streamer, Deadline has learned.

The decision is part of Disney’s streaming content removal plan unveiled in May, for which the company is taking an impairment charge of approximately $1.5 billion-$1.8 billion. It followed the February announcement by Disney that it intends to cut $3 billion in non-sports content spend across the company.

As part of the cost-reduction strategy, Disney’s streaming platforms, particularly flagship Disney+, have been taking a closer look on their programming with a new emphasis on content curation.

As Deadline reported exclusively Saturday, Disney+ also is not going forward with another upcoming original series, the The Spiderwick Chronicles, a U.S. live-action series adaptation of the popular children’s fantasy books.

Over the past couple of months, dozens of original series and specials were taken off Disney+ as well as Hulu, and Disney CEO Bob Iger also announced a pullback in new Marvel and Star Wars shows and movies for Disney+.

Like The Spiderwick Chronicles, which is currently being shopped by lead studios Paramount Television Studios, Nautilus has been shot; it started filming in February 2022 in Australia. Disney+ is working with the production team to find a new home for Nautilus, with meetings and screenings underway.

Nautilus was announced during the 2021 Edinburgh TV Festival along with two other new original UK series for Disney+. No other UK local originals are understood to be impacted by the content cuts.

Disney+’s UK scripted and unscripted programming pipeline includes Culprits, from J Blakeson; Jilly Cooper’s Rivals; A Thousand Blows, from Stephen Graham; Coleen Rooney’s upcoming documentary, In Vogue, from Vogue Studios and Raw; and Shardlake, based on the novels by C. J. Sansom.

The streamer also recently greenlit two new U.K. drama series, Jeff Pope’s Suspect: The Shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes, and thriller Playdate.

Based on the Jules Verne’s classic novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Nautilus is a 10-part live-action adventure series about the origin story of Verne’s iconic character, Captain Nemo, and his famous submarine, The Nautilus.

In this retelling, Nemo (Shazad Latif) is an Indian Prince robbed of his birth right and family, a prisoner of the East India Company and a man bent on revenge against the forces which have taken everything from him. But once he sets sail with his ragtag crew on board the awe-inspiring Nautilus, he not only battles with his enemy, he also discovers a magical underwater world.

Also starring are Georgia Flood and Thierry Frémont, with Pacharo Mzembe, Arlo Green, Tyrone Ngatai, Ling Cooper Tang, Andrew Shaw, Ashan Kumar, Céline Menville and Kayden Price rounding out the cast. Nautilus is produced by Xavier Marchand’s Moonriver Studios and Anand Tucker’s Seven Stories.

To be clear, I'm not going anywhere. I love this community, and although I'm disappointed seeing how certain things have been handled, I still believe in the objective of QSMP: uniting communities and people from all around the world and breaking down language barriers.

Regardless of what happens next, or whether people choose to step away from the series or not, QSMP gave many content creators and their communities a platform to meet other people and make those first cross-cultural connections and friendships. The positive ripple-effects from that aren't going away anytime soon.

#mod talk #I dunno. I guess the final message here is I'm sorry we're all feeling sad and I'll try to help people as best I can #I think I will still share old clips but I might take a bit of a break today #I'm happy to hear your guys' feedback and thoughts though! #I want to hear how certain CCs respond before I decide on sharing new clips

realizing i have. a lot of untapped trauma potential for clone^2 danny because i just Fully Processed Four Months Late the fact that his parents were capturing and torturing ghosts in the basement before he became Phantom. and the fact that he was on house rest for 2 weeks. during that time period. and he wasn't really leaving the house. he could hear their screaming through the floorboards

*points at clone danny* i can give you suuuuuuch a bad time babe ahaha. i've got two untouched years before you meet damian what fucks you up before then

#dpxdc #dp x dc #danny fenton is not the ghost king #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc crossover #dpdc #clone^2 #danny fenton is a clone #like i dont even need to traumatize you worse the pure explorative options from this aLONE is enough to feed me for a week. #like. tucks hair behind ear let me shatter you into glass pieces then glue you back together babe. i can put you back together so good. #i'm missing a few shards because some parts of you broke into such small pieces i couldn't pick them back up again so you'll be missing a #few chunks of yourself that you'll never get back but that's okay. you'll still be a resemblance of your old self :] #don't let anakin (me) listen to late night sad songs he makes angst. #hhh imagine being stuck in a house for two weeks where you can hear your parents torturing ghosts in the basement and not only that but #you're the only person who can undERSTAND the ghosts. how many times did he see his parents drag in a ghost with whatever capturing device #they made recently? iirc the thermos was like. brand new in episode one right? but gOD the trauma this alone would cause #nobody touch me im cooking rn i need to think about how this would impact danny. like obvs it would fuel into a developing obsession to #keep his parents away from ghosts and to help the dead but what *else.* i need to refine my becoming phantom ficlet i wrote back in winter #raaa #and like even after two weeks they were *still capturing ghosts* danny just wasn't in the house 24/7 at the time. #*but those two fucking weeks man* #i need to sleep on this first before i make any major moves bc i know im tired but i am having thOUGHTs

how do you think in poems? i really enjoy the tags under your posts i've always wanted to write down my own thoughts that way bc in my head they feel so thorough and magical but whenever i put it in words i feel it just gets so much flatter and i no longer see a point and give up

oh oh oh, but lovely, can't you see that you've already started? it's a perspective that you hone, over time, something that is specific to you and you alone – that's the piece of it that makes it so special! you've already begun, and it only goes forward, up, sideways from here, wherever you wish to go!

think of it like a skill, for a moment, or a kind of muscle, if you'd prefer. you have to work at it, with it, over time and differing experiences, in order to progress.

(a quick important note: not progression as in the kind of quality-check of a grading scale, but progression as in evolution. shifting change. think of the leaves and their colors across the months of autumn, or temperatures rising with the sun and cooling with the evening dark. change isn't intrinsically a qualifying thing, it can just be, sometimes. this is difficult to remember, especially in the midst of frustration, but it is worth it. you are always doing better than you think you are – harshest critic, and all that.)

which is not to say that it's a simple thing to do! compare this to the vibe of me picking up crochet recently, with my shaking hands and too-quickly dwindling adhd focus – my first attempts at making a lil headphone sprout have not been going as well as i once hoped. my stitches are either too big and sloppy bc i'm not holding the yarn tightly enough to get clean ones, or i feel frustrated due to it not looking like how i'd like it to look in my mind when i started it, or even as i begin my umpteenth attempt.

but!! i know that it won't ever look the way i want it do if i set it down and never keep trying. it'll take awhile, like everything does, even the seasons take their time, the moon and its phases; but what i do know, is that, eventually, it'll resemble something i want it to. vaguely, maybe, but it is something. it doesn't have to look exactly like the guide i'm following, or the examples i'm inspired by, because it's mine – something made by my own hands, my own time and experience with every mistake and thrilling joy along the way to learn by.

take it from me: i want to be good at things i want to be good at so badly. and that excitement makes me want to be at the skill level i need to be at in order to do so right then and there, no learning curves or building blocks allowed. which is never how it happens, unfortunately, but –

i think, gently, that we tend to overlook what a pleasure it is to learn. to see the slow progression of things, to begin and change and continue and get better. and even if it's different as we go along, in a way it's our own little kind of magic, maybe, to create and never be done if we don't want to be.

which is all to say: it's already yours. why does it have to be anything else, anything more? why can't it just be good as it is now, where it might never be again? what is there to lose by enjoying the moment of where you are?

like everything, it will grow and shift and evolve with time, maybe into something you'd hoped for, or maybe into something you don't even have the words to describe right now at all. but that's the fun of it: how even now, even then, there, across time and distance and skill, there is a common thread of things; it will always come from your heart, your experience, where you are right then and there and now.

and if you think of that like magic, well, it becomes a little like magic, doesn't it?

also, something to consider: sometimes things you feel or think can't be put into words at that moment, or even at all! something else you could try (that i certainly do) is making something else with whatever it makes you feel - whether that's another form of art, or any other kind of media. if it makes you want to go outside and take a walk or get cozy and read or play a video game? that counts too! that's still an experience, you're still feeling.

i think that counts a little more than anything else, you know?

and as a little ending fun side-note, can i share something cool? i've never thought of it that way before, as thinking in poems. in my mind it's always been a kind of perspective of personal wonder, but you're right – it's poetry, in it's own way. you gave me that – so thank you, from the heart of me. i hope your journey finds you with every bright joy.

#rainsdowninkerala #q&a. #this is truly so much longer than i had originally thought it would be so i do hope it's less rambly and more help-y? #the art of creation goes hand in hand with the exploration and discovery of feeling and it is sooooo important n fascinating to me. #truly tho this can all be boiled down into a kind of: keep going? keep going. you can only get better. #i didn't want the post itself to get even longer & winded BUT if you want a lil fun vibe? watch meet the robinsons. it's a lil silly; but - #truly nothing changed my creative experiences more than hearing ' keep moving forward ' paired with joy at the result of failure. #how it is that you never learn if you don't fail; you have to keep trying; keep going at it; and if we only ever succeeded – #there would never be that? that checkpoint of progression? it changed that frustrating moment into a kind of art; for me. #how each time i fail and feel that sadness or anger it reframes it into oh. i'm learning. i'm doing something new and i'm learning. #isn't that amazing? spectacular? that i can do this? that it's me / you / us together? #i think ab that a lot in terms of inspiring my mindset. i hope it helps you too. wishing u all my best !!!! <3

Is there a Hexenzirkel!Diluc AU where the witches forsaw his mum (a fellow Hexenzirkel witch) dying but she maintained giving everything up for Crepus & her future son because Diluc, according to whatever prophecy, had a bright future and would save many lives (and also she already loved him). So she dies really early in Diluc's life as per canon but lovely Aunty Alice wants to visit her friend's new son, only to perform her own magical vision thing and find out that Diluc will actually be SUPER traumatised by all the shit in his life. So anyway Alice (certified Good Mum™ who never really cared about Crepus' opinion anyway) snatches teeny Diluc away to raise in the Hexenzirkel.

Oh and then Kaeya shows up at the winery a few years later and Crepus is projecting hard with his "I miss my son" feelings and it's pretty rough. But Diluc meanwhile is pulling rabbits out of hats and is trying to figure out if Albedo is somehow related to a dragon?? He's got much less trauma now in this AU I've decided.

#genshin impact #diluc #genshin Alice #hexenzirkel #I'm sorry no ragbros I'm more sad about this than anyone #maybe alice returns to the winery after hearing crepus found a new kid #just to make sure his sons specifically aren't doomed #and then she's like oops if I adopt this one too more sadness hmm #oh dang Kaeya can never catch a break huh

I complain a lot and have particular tastes but actually,,,,, even slightly odd regional productions of Elisabeth are much more enjoyable to watch than Schönbrunn 😭😭😭 (which is a kitschy corpse of the original show).

Like I have just beheld the rudolf scenes in the Lithuanian production and while deeply weird things happen (tod same day express delivery kissing him very quickly and then slowly Rotating Him on top of his coffin by pulling on his feet 😭😭) there's some interesting artistic engagement w the story!! (Mayerling happens w Rudolf trying to run away and escape (?) but being confronted with mirrors on all sides, ie. just his own self with nobody there to help him snap out of it - what a thought-provoking take on self-hatred 😭 also he's literally face down curled up on the floor at the end of spiegel and weeping quietly hahaha which I like)

#i think what helps is just. when prods pay attention to the metaphor and avoid giving tod too much independent agency #i think i'm just allergic to new austrian prods & hungary & probably czech JAKSLSKFKD (at least from what i see and hear of it) #we dont need sad sexless versions of mayerling if youre not going to have them [redacted] just dont have them throw each other around at all #and come up w some alternative interesting depiction (like the mirrors!!!) #akskkslsldkd

they took up another page of my sketchbook

bonus close-up for the alhaitham stans:

open for better quality | no reposts | ID under the cut

[Image description: Three pictures of traditional drawings of Kaveh and Alhaitham. The first drawing depicts Kaveh with arms crossed and puffed cheeks. With a frustrated expression, he huffs and averts his eyes. The second drawing shows two chibi Kaveh expressions. In one, he is teary eyed and looks downwards. In the other, he has lion ears and smiles smugly. The third drawing portrays a bust shot of a young Alhaitham in an Akademiya student uniform. His visible eye is wide and looks up in surprise. There is an arrow labeled "5s later" and it points at a blank-faced chibi Alhaitham.

There is an extra picture which is a close-up of Alhaitham in his Akademiya student uniform.]

JUST watched a video about the Afton's and I really love their British accents, but I've seen people dislike it so.... I'm curious. Reblogs or comments welcomed, I really want to know people's thoughts on this!

#fnaf #five nights at freddy's #Afton #the aftons #poll #I'll be honest I love them being british it feels intimidating and makes them unique amongst all the american accents. #I'm also notoriously known for liking British voice acting over American because rarities like the amazing work for the aftons and #final fantasy 16's whole bloody cast feel much more familiar and nicer to me. Probably because the amount of american accents I hear in.... #EVERYTHING feels like it's a little too much all the time. #I'm not british but maybe it's because my accent (being australian) is very close to it that I feel more connected to characters with #foreign accents rather than American. Plus I love the evil Bri'ish stereotype. #About that actually I love how Wiliam doesn't SOUND like a cliche British villain. He sounds just like any other bloke and it's terrifying. #Michael having that british accent that was well executed and full of emotion added LAYERS to his character #and ELIZABETH oh my god I can't imagine her with an american accent. #It's so weird to me that there's a chance that they're going the American accent route with the Afton's after so many years of bri'ish. #Was the yelling in the trailer (I believe) for Security Breach actually Afton talking to Vanessa or something? MF sounds like Monty #I have nothing against the new VA for William I'm just very confused and actually genuinely sad at the loss of PJ being William :') #Correct me if I am wrong and that voice ISN'T william (I could see it being spring bonnies voice instead??? kinda like how Baby is american #but I'm afraid we'll loose the british Aftons WAAA #ALSO ADDING TO THIS #It's driving me nuts who was the british lady in Matpats timeline video #WHO WAS SHE AND WHERE CAN I FIND HER VOICE AGAIN (Was it in the VR tapes?? I'M SO CONFUSED)

i started reading silence of the lambs today (i'm reading them chronologically so i'm 3/4 in) (</3) and i just want to say i hope thomas harris is getting the sloppiest head everyday for the rest of his life forever. forever. forever and ever.

#txt #every book my thoughts about this character expand and so far we are at bodelian library levels of thoughts and opinions #i wish i could go back to my 8 year old self and be like you know how you watch sotl like. once a month. well. i've got news. #also i completely understand what the harris hannibal centrist have to say about the sad reduction of clarice to will/other nbc characters #it wasn't as jarring to hear direct dialogue from hannigram scenes (and others) in hannibal rising and red dragon. but in sotl i'm like whoa #anyways. #i'm afraid this is it boys. i'm never thinking about anything else ever again i'm afraid. #i knew it was over for me months ago. now i KNOW. this man will be with me until i die. hes in my bones now. i know him spiritually. #we text.
