‘Wonderful World Of Mickey Mouse’ shorts to premiere on Disney+ in Nov.
What better way to celebrate Mickey Mouse’s birthday than with a new-animated shorts series featuring Mickey and all of his friends.
“The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse,” will premiere on Disney+ Nov. 18 with two new shorts rolling out every Friday beginning Nov. 27, 2020. Ten shorts will premiere this year, with 10 additional shorts set for Summer 2021.
The new series will include stories inspired by various lands at Disney parks and cameos by classic Disney heritage characters. The new shorts are developed from the team behind Disney Channel’s Emmy Award-winning “Mickey Mouse” cartoon shorts and will feature Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto.
Each seven-minute short is filled with modern settings, new music and the unmistakable classic art style of the “Mickey Mouse” shorts.
Marked by a contemporary art style that harkens back to Mickey’s 1928 beginnings, the “Mickey Mouse” cartoon shorts premiered on Disney Channel in 2013 and ran for five seasons, consisting of a total of 96 episodes, and garnered seven Primetime Emmy Awards, two Daytime Emmy Awards and 21 Annie Awards.
The shorts inspired the new attraction, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, the first ride-through attraction in Disney history starring Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, now open at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. All five seasons of the shorts are currently available to stream on Disney+.
