Almost two months after news broke that production on Disney+'s Star Wars spinoff Obi-Wan was suspended over Lucasfilm president and Obi-Wan producer Kathleen Kennedy's dissatisfaction with writer Hossein Amini's (Drive) scripts, Joby Harold (Army of the Dead) has been tapped to step in as the four-episode, live-action series' writer (Variety first reported). Reportedly, Kennedy was […]
Disney +'s The Mandalorian is set to return for a second season in October 2020 with Jon Favreau back, and viewers counting down the days since filming wrapped. In this time of production shutdowns, self-isolation, and social distancing, it almost feels like the live-action Star Wars series actually did exist "in a galaxy far, far […]

Looking to jump into some classic Disney cartoons? Here are some of my favorites that I think you and your family will enjoy! So let's get […]
Crappy St. Patrick's Day, everyone. If you were planning to stream Darby O'Gill and the Little People on Disney+, I have some bad news. The version available to stream is terrible. And there's no reason for it, similar to their (ongoing) problem with The Simpsons on the platform. It's a tragedy on top of so […]
Marvel Studios confirmed that Disney+ live-action series Loki and WandaVision are shutting down their respective productions over coronavirus pandemic concerns.

A day after news came down that Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was shutting down production in Prague out of growing concern over the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, series co-star Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier) took to Instagram to lament having to leave the city, while complimenting the people of Prague and […]
Maybe The Falcon and the Winter Soldier star Anthony Mackie (Altered Carbon, Black Mirror) aka Sam Wilson spoke a little too soon (or maybe angered Baron Zemo?) when he told Stephen Colbert last week that filming was "almost done", because Deadline Hollywood is reporting exclusively that the show's production in Prague has been shut down. The […]
Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier finds itself in the same enviable-yet-stressful position this fall that The Mandalorian found itself in last year: being the kick-off live-action series for one of the streamer's major "universes": Marvel Studios. But just in case you have any concerns, the MCU's new shield-bearer is here to put your […]
Disney +'s The Mandalorian has had a pretty interesting post-premiere season life. We know Jon Favreau's back in charge for the second season (set to return in October 2020), there's a good chance WWE pro-wrestler Sasha Banks has some part in it, Giancarlo Esposito (Moff Gideon) believes his Darksaber-wielding bad guy could make a turn […]
Marvel Studios and Disney+'s live-action series Hawkeye finds Jeremy Renner returning to the role of Clint Barton – except times have changed. Now, Clint trains and guides Kate Bishop: the next generation of the hero (or as Renner refers to her, "the best version of Hawkeye.") – all while coming to terms with his actions […]
Disney+ revealed earlier this year that WandaVision will be a part of Marvel's 2020 rollout. Originally slated for a 2021 debut, the six-episode series sees Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany return to their respective Avengers roles as Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch and Vision, and will connect directly (especially Olsen's Wanda) with Marvel's 2021 film, […]
At the D23 Expo 2019, now-Marvel Studios bigwig Kevin Feige announced three Disney+ live-action series: Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, and She-Hulk.

While Disney+ may not be having much luck in the Lizzie McGuire department, one popular Disney family appears to be doing just fine – and ready for a return. The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder has been given a greenlight from the streaming service, with original series creator/executive producer Bruce W. Smith and executive producer […]
Diego Luna (Narcos) is set to resume his role as Rebel Alliance officer Cassian Andor in the upcoming Disney+ Rogue One series, with the streaming service hoping the Star Wars success of The Mandalorian (set to return in October for a second season) rides its way over to the next live-action series. Without giving away […]
One of the best things about covering television is that you can find news about it no matter where you go or where you look. Perfect example? This year's Toy Fair, taking place once again in my own backyard of NYC. Now while you expect lots and lots of toy and toy-related news (thus, the […]
Now that Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier stars Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier) and Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson aka Falcon) are done playing cupid for the fans (that will make much more sense if you click here), looks like they'll have time to welcome actor Carl Lumbly (Supergirl, Alias) to the series. Having […]

First, series mastermind Jon Favreau confired that the second season would hit during Fall 2020. Earlier this year, Walt Disney CEO Bob Iger narrowed things down to a month: October. Now we're learning a […]
After some serious patience on the fanbase's part, the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars will be making its way to Disney+ starting Friday, February 21. Just to be clear, we use the word "patience" because the 12-episode season was first announced during San Diego Comic-Con 2018. Last year saw the D23 news […]
You would think that being in the middle of production on Disney+'s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier would keep Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier) and Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson aka Falcon) on set and in action 24/7 – especially if the series wants to hit it's Fall 2020 debut window. It's understandable: […]
