Was Disney already planning to make Tinker Bell a bigger star before the Tinker Bell movies were announced?

When Disney's Tinker Bell debuted on DVD my mom became an instant Tinker Bell fan and I never knew that Disney's Tinker Bell would be the start of a whole line of Tinker Bell movies and so I wondered if Disney was planning to make Tinker Bell a bigger star due to the release of Disney's Tinker Bell? My mom has been a Tinker Bell fan since the movie came out and has office supplies and bedding and even handbags of Tinker Bell as well. Although Mom and I haven't seen the Tinker Bell movie yet we have seen parts of the other movies and we just love the amazing animation. I think Disney was thinking that the Tinker Bell line would be successful than the Disney Princess line

The Tinker Bell movies are some of my favorites! I only watched them as an adult with my kids, but they are so good! I wish they would either make more of these or at least remake one as a live-action. Julia Roberts as Tink in Hook is still one of my favorite characters ever. I think that Yara Shahidi will do a good job in Peter Pan and Wendy, but she's obviously not the main character. I hope she gets a spinoff.

Tinker Bell and Stitch are definitely my two unsung Disney heros (although they are both getting a lot of love right now0.
