Kirk Cameron Declares War on Woke Disney: Launches Faith-Based Kids’ Show as Parents Seek ‘True, Good, and Beautiful’ Alternatives
In a bold challenge to Disney’s storytelling direction, veteran actor and producer Kirk Cameron has taken aim at the entertainment giant’s live-action Snow White remake, accusing it of abandoning timeless values in favor of progressive messaging. His solution? A new, crowd-funded children’s series designed to offer families what he believes Disney no longer does: faith, virtue, and trust.
“When You Go Woke, You Go Broke”
Cameron, best known for his role in Growing Pains and his later work as a faith-based producer, didn’t mince words in a recent interview with CBN News. “Disney is continuing to go down a road that parents don’t want,” he declared. “Trust matters to parents. When you take a beloved movie like Snow White and strip it of what is true, good, and beautiful—replacing it with actors and values that oppose those ideals—parents will look for alternatives.”
His critique comes amid Disney’s ongoing box-office struggles and cultural controversies, including backlash over casting choices and narrative shifts in its live-action remakes. Cameron’s argument echoes a growing sentiment among conservative families who feel alienated by modern children’s entertainment.
Brave+ and the Battle for Family Values
Cameron’s counteroffensive is Adventures with Iggy and Mr. Kirk, a live-action series set to debut on the faith-friendly streaming platform Brave+. Described as a mix of laughter, learning, and biblical values, the show positions itself as a safe harbor for parents wary of mainstream media.
“Parents have a viable alternative now,” Cameron said, highlighting Brave+’s lineup of “time-tested, parent-vetted” content, including classics like Bob the Builder and Strawberry Shortcake, alongside his new series. “It’s teaching kids character, virtue, and faith—without a second thought.”
A Larger Cultural Shift?
Cameron’s move isn’t just about entertainment—it’s part of a broader ideological clash over who gets to shape the next generation’s moral imagination. With Disney facing financial headwinds and criticism from both sides of the political spectrum, Cameron’s project taps into a burgeoning market of families seeking alternatives.
“People are hungry for goodness,” he insisted. “They want stories that bring families together, not divide them.”
As the culture wars rage on, one thing is clear: Kirk Cameron isn’t just criticizing Disney—he’s betting that a growing number of parents will rally to his vision of what children’s entertainment should be.
Will it work? That may depend on just how many families agree that “going woke” really does mean “going broke.”
