The episodes will stream on Disney+ early next year. Season two will include action-packed pirate-themed adventures for Disney’s #1 star, Mickey Mouse, and his pals—Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto—as they visit real-world and fantastical locales with Funny, an enchanted talking playhouse voiced by Harvey Guillén (“What We Do in the Shadows”). Season one is currently available on Disney Channel, Disney Junior and Disney+.

 

Season two finds Mickey and the gang visiting a variety of magical lands—such as Pirate World, Underwater Ocean World, Prehistoric World and Herotropolis—where they become powerful superheroes. Funny also turns into a modern-day jet, helping the pals explore real-world cultures, from observing Lunar New Year in Seoul to celebrating Día de los Muertos in Mexico City.
