One of our favorite shows from our childhood could be coming back for this generation, but currently, it’s only a possibility and not guaranteed.

“The Mickey Mouse Club” was a show created by Walt Disney himself. It started as a live, traveling theatre show, then aired on ABC in 1955. It ran briefly, then became a syndicated show in the 1970s. The most well-known version of the show is the 1989 “The All-New Mickey Mouse Club,” which starred and showcased lots of young talent, including Britney Spears, Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Aguilera. Now, it’s possible the show could be coming BACK!
Variety has reported that Disney+ has ordered a pilot of a new reboot of “The Mickey Mouse Club,” complete with an all-new cast of Mouseketeers. The new cast includes Camp Rock 3 cast members Hudson Stone, Casey Trotter, and Brooklynn Pitts, as well as Erianthe Akaata (“Young Rock”), Scarlett London Diviney (“The Lion King”), Michael Cash (“Black Rabbit”), Yonas Kibreab (“Elio”), Varonica Mitchell, Kauani, Scarlett Grace Petty, and Carter Barnes.

The pilot is being produced by Fulwell Entertainment with executive producers Ben Winston, Ashley Edens, Emma Conway, and Dave Piendak. Production begins this month in Los Angeles, and while not much is known about the potential new show, if it’s ordered to series, it’ll be focused on serving as a showcase for young performers with music playing a big part.

Other recent pilot orders from Disney+ include a series adaptation of the 2006 film Aquamarine, as well as a live-action version of the popular “Last Kids on Earth” book series.
