As the team behind the latest magical Disney adventure "Wish" present their film in Paris, we're talking about 100 years of the biggest media company on the planet. We learn about Walt's French ancestry and how the name Disney came from two French words – D apostrophe Isigny – which was combined into Disney. Eve Jackson interviews the team behind the 62nd Disney movie, which is out in time for Christmas and comes from the creators of "Frozen". We hear from "Wish" directors Fawn Veerasunthorn and Chris Buck and the actress who plays main character Asha, "West Side Story" Oscar-winner Ariana DeBose.
