Disney Junior has revealed that a new iteration of its flagship series Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is set to debut in 2025, along with more brand-new series and specials.

In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 2.0 (w.t.), Mickey and friends welcome a new generation of preschoolers back to the clubhouse. Audiences can anticipate the clubhouse’s expansion with a brand-new area just for Minnie and surprise appearances from Duffy the Disney Bear, Mickey’s trusted teddy bear.

The brand-new Halloween stop-motion special Mickey and Friends Trick or Treats is also set to debut on October 2 on Disney+. More holiday episodes included in the slate are SuperKitties, Pupstruction, Spidey and His Amazing Friends and Mickey Mouse Funhouse. All are to premiere in the fall.

Several more series have been given premiere dates. Doc McStuffins: The Doc & Bella Are In is set to premiere on September 6, while Firebuds and Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures are to come in November.

Additionally, Mykal-Michelle Harris (Raven’s Home) has been cast in the lead role of Ariel in Disney Junior’s Ariel, an animated musical series for preschoolers inspired by The Little Mermaid. Taye Diggs (Rent) and Amber Riley (Glee) have been cast to voice King Triton and Ursula in the series, which follows 8-year-old mermaid princess Ariel as she and her friends embark on underwater adventures.

Cynthia Erivo, Valerie Bertinelli, Alan Cumming, Susan Kelechi Watson, Ana Gasteyer, Alison Pill and Dulé Hill have been cast in recurring guest star roles for Disney Junior’s next new series Robogobo.
