In an ominous sign for visual effects artists, Technicolor-owned MPC, the banner behind recent Disney films “Mufasa: The Lion King,” “The Jungle Book” and “The Lion King,” could begin shutting its doors as early as Monday, according to multiple sources.
On Friday, Technicolor began alerting customers and employees, sending U.S. employees a WARN notice as required by law for large companies that anticipate closings and mass layoffs. A total shutdown of MPC and Technicolor’s operations would effect thousands of visual effects workers.
