About this listen
One Lost Contract. One Iconic Mouse.
He thought he had finally made it.
His animation studio had a hit character. Audiences loved it. A distributor was interested. Success felt within reach.
Then everything collapsed.
While negotiating in New York, he discovered the unthinkable: he didn’t own the character he created. His distributor had claimed the rights. Most of his team had already been signed away.
He boarded a train back to California with a broken studio and a shattered future.
But somewhere along that journey, he made a decision that would change entertainment forever.
In this episode of Twist of Fate Radio, we explore how one lost contract led to the creation of one of the most recognizable characters in the world — and how betrayal sparked an empire.
Sometimes losing everything forces you to build something better.
