Pixar is looking to have its second hit of the year in just a couple of weeks with Toy Story 5, but they're already doing better than last year, thanks to how well Hoppers ended up doing. Was it a massive smash? No, but it was also weird as hell, experimental, and exactly the kind of thing that thrived in early Pixar and tends to get kneecapped in the age of "a billion at the box office is the baseline measure of success." If you missed out on seeing Hoppers in theaters, you'll have the chance to fix that next week. Disney and Pixar have confirmed that Hoppers will hop right onto Disney+ starting on June 3, 2026. We got a new trailer and poster to go along with the announcement.
Hoppers: Summary, Cast List, Release Date
Hoppers is the new animated comedy adventure that introduces Mabel, an animal lover who seizes an opportunity to use a new technology to 'hop' her consciousness into a life-like robotic beaver and communicate directly with animals. Using the technology, Mabel uncovers mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined.
Hoppers features the voice of Bobby Moynihan as King George, an undeniably optimistic, kind and larger-than-life beaver who is the leader of the pond and king of the mammals. Jon Hamm voices Mayor Jerry, a politician running for reelection in Beaverton. Under his shiny, perfectly coiffed hair and matching public persona, Jerry is losing his cool over the one thing he can't control: Mabel.
