Welcome to the public domain, Mickey Mouse
Its finally happened: after nearly a century, Mickey Mouse has slipped off Disneys copyright leash. The first versions of the iconic cartoon character, seen in Steamboat Willie and a silent version of Plane Crazy, enter the public domain in the US on January 1st, 2024. (An early version of Minnie Mouse is also fortunately included.) Theres still a complicated mess of protections around Mickey, but today is a moment public domain advocates have awaited for decades and there are plenty of other exciting new entries as well.
