He readied for the premiere of the latest film from the lucrative Disney/Pixar partnership, makers of such hits "Finding Nemo" and "Toy Story."
what function does " makers of such hit " Finding Nemo " and " Toy Story " ?
Is it " appositive " ?

Yes, you are correct. The phrase -- makers of such hits as "Finding Nemo " and "Toy Story" -- is an appositive phrase. This phrase acts to modify and explain the following noun: the lucrative Disney/Pixar partnership.
Good Luck!!!!
