Get your taxes done using TurboTax
There is a difference between "foreign income" and "foreign earned". Income paid to you by Disney, a U.S. registered corporation, is U.S. income.
If your income is reported on a W-2, then you enter the W-2 exactly as printed.
Now, the income may be "foreign earned", but it's not foreign income if paid in US dollars and reported on a W-2.
Being foreign earned "may" help on the tax front. I would highly suggest you contact a local tax professional such as a CPA to get clarification. It can get complicated because money earned while in U.S. waters is generally not considered foreign earned.
But then, I'm no expert on this. I most certainly wouldn't go on the word of anyone in this public user forum though, regardless of what expertise they may claim. If you want a taste of just how complicated this can be, check out the article at https://lifeofiris.com/2022/02/27/do-cruise-ship-crew-pay-taxes/
