Darkwing Duck Reboot Adds Original DW Creator: Tad Stones As Creative Consultant.

It’s been ages since we heard something about the upcoming Darkwing Duck Reboot, we where expecting some news about it on the 30th Anniversary of the og show on September 6 and Disney+ Day but nothing.

However since then many people have spoken about it’s status like The Ghost And Molly McGee co-creator and original Darkwing Duck writter Bob Roth mentioning “we are aware of the reboot but we are too busy on Molly McGee to work on it” and later Jim Cummings on a convention on September mentioning that “he hasn’t been called” for the reboot and hints on the Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers Movie Poster on Disney+ Day.

However recently on the What’s In My Head Podcast, a podcast interviewing animation industry people like Craig McCracken and Sabrina Alberghetti etc.., Tad Stones the creator of the OG Darkwing Duck was invited, check the whole podcast to get a inside look at Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers and Darkwing Duck days from the begginings of Disney TVA.

However in the Interview, the question about the reboot was asked with Tad Stones mentioning that “he is doing creative consultant job on the reboot despite his retirement”

RUMOR: NEW ANIMATED WINNIE POOH PROJECT ON DEVELOPMENT AT DISNEY+

Today the original novel of Winnie The Pooh by A.A Milne became public domain however the reality is that Disney has losed its exclusivity on the character, this means that other companies like Netflix, Paramount, Nickelodeon, Warner Bros, Cartoon Network, Sony Pictures Animation or Dreamworks can make their own versions of Winnie The Pooh but with some tricks behind Disney’s copyright policy 

Our friends at DisnInsider who really have reported well some news on Marvel,Star Wars,Disney,Disney Channel Sitcoms, DCOMS and Pixar have revealed on their explanation on How Winnie The Pooh Becoming Public Domain didn’t actually affected Disney, unveiled that a project featuring the lovable bear was in early development on Disney+.

It’s very obvious that this project is animated since Winnie Pooh has been more know for animation than live action, this will be the first TV animated Winnie Pooh Project in 15 years since Playhouse Disney My Friends Tigger And Pooh

Back on 2015 popular Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon pitched a Winnie Pooh Reboot to Disney with a  full animated pilot in hand, sadly in 2016 the pilot was passed, as much as we wish this new project for Disney+ is a revival of this idea, it seems that this willl be something different, probably done by Disney Television Animation or Disney Europe Animation.

On Winnie Pooh becoming Public Domain well… Disney would keep their own creations from the Hundred Acre Woods BUT Studios will not be able to use Tigger in their works though. Milne created Tigger in 1928 but is still under Disney ownership for a few more years. Disney owns the copyright for their Winnie The Pooh so any adaptations born out of the book entering the public domain can not closely resemble those in the Magic Kingdom.

Characters and setting created exclusively by Disney cannot be used as well, including Gopher or Kessie for example, as they where created for Disney’s TV Shows and not featured in the original book.

Oswald The Lucky Rabbit The Series Never Came To Production Past The Pilot According To Series Showrunner Matt Danner.

Over the past 3 years we have been reporting about a Oswald The Lucky Rabbit Series for Disney+, however as time went on and conventions,Investor stuff or special Disney events (D23 2019,Disney Investor Day 2019 & 2020, Disney+ Day) came no more updates on the show where given

As time went on many things happen, the production studio behind the show and Legend Of The Three Caballeros, Disney Digital Network shut down and we speculated that the show was in a similar situation like Villainous and High Guardian Spice as the show was completed but it needed a release.

Well in the Morning, Oswald The Lucky Rabbit Series Showrunner and EP Matt Danner revealed on a QRT of Cartoon Brew talking about how Iger saved Oswald,

He talked that during the development of Disney+ a Oswald The Lucky Rabbit TV show pitch was commisioned by Disney themselves and sadly it never passed beyond the pilot process despite having finished scripts and many animation tests from different studios to showcase, the show was axed before the show even got a pilot

Danner mentions that despite all of this, Oswald is still loved on The Walt Disney Corporation but still is kinda sad that a project like this was shut down without showcasing it’s full potential…

NEW DISNEY TVA SERIES ALERT: DISNEY+ GREENLIGHTS DISNEY TELEVISION ANIMATION’S 98TH SERIES OVERALL ANTHOLOGY COMEDY ADVENTURE SERIES: THE WITCHVERSE

Disney Branded Television has teamed with Baobab Studios on The Witchverse, an animated anthology series based on Baobab’s Emmy-winning VR experience and animated short film Baba Yaga created by Eric Darnell.

Disney+  Teases Darkwing Duck Reboot News for 2022

Disney+ provides a clue about the status of the highly anticipated Darkwing Duck reboot who tomorrow it celebrates one year of being announced.

During a Disney+ Day announcement for the live-action/animated Chip ‘n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers movie, a script for Darkwing Duck could be spotted in the background that read, “Production Draft 2022.” and in other page  it says “Darkwing Duck” & in the yellow post-note it says “DWD Reboot Call”

The Reboot is set to be executive produced by Seth Rogen and his company Point Grey Pictures in association with Disney Television Animation.

It shouldn’t be to surprising to see this since Seth Rogen has a cameo on the Chip “N” Dale Rescue Rangers film, probably during that film a joke about the reboot will be made.

A update of the reboot was hinted when The Ghost And Molly McGee creator Bob Roth mentioned on his Twitter “We Are Aware Of The Reboot” when asked if he and Bill Motz could writte a episode since both worked on the original Darkwing Duck show.
