With Netflix cutting back on animated projects, the future of animation looks bleak on the platform, but Arcane season 2 can prove them wrong. It was confirmed that Netflix was shutting down two animated films as well as laying off some of their staff in the department. This continues an ongoing trend of the streaming platform downsizing this department as layoffs and canceled projects also occurred in the summer of 2022. Netflix has had some terrific animated projects over the years, but it has always been less of a priority than their live-action shows. Arcane's second season may just prove the platform wrong about the value of animation.
