AMPHIBIA Gets a Third Season on Disney Channel Ahead of Season 2 Premiere
The second season of Disney Channel’s Amphibia is set to premiere next month, and Disney recently announced the show has already received a third season! This is really cool news. I haven’t been able to watch it yet, but I’ve been meaning to check Amphibia out for some time now.
Popular actress and longtime Disney Channel star Brenda Song (“Dollface”) voices the lead role of independent and fearless teen Anne Boonchuy, who is magically transported to the fantastical world of Amphibia, a rural marshland full of frog-people. Created and executive-produced by Annie Award-winner Matt Braly (Gravity Falls), the series is inspired by his heritage, family and childhood trips to Bangkok, Thailand.
Meredith Roberts of Disney Channel said:
Matt's vision, authentic storytelling and undeniable passion for his characters have brought the fantastical world of 'Amphibia' to life for kids and families around the world. We are excited for viewers to follow Anne and the Plantars as they go on new adventures in season two and unravel more mysteries through season three.
Season 2 of Amphibia is set to premiere on Disney Channel and DisneyNOW on July 11 as part of the Saturday night animation block for the summer. Some amazing guest stars are planned for the season as well including Kermit the Frog (The Muppets); Jenifer Lewis (Black-ish); George Takei (Star Trek: The Original Series); Kristen Schaal (Gravity Falls); Hugh Bonneville and Michelle Dockery (both from Downtown Abbey); Tress MacNeille (voice of Daisy Duck); Marlow Barkley, Mia Allan and Ella Allan (from ABC's Single Parents); Haley Tju (Big Hero 6 The Series); Keith David (The Princess and the Frog); Susan Egan (Disney's Hercules); and Flula Borg (Pitch Perfect 2).
As season two picks up, Anne and the Plantars are on a quest to unlock the mysteries of the music box as they leave the cozy confines of Wartwood for the distant city of Newtopia. On their journey, they will visit exotic new locations, uncover hidden secrets and experience unexpected reunions as they continue to search for a way to get Anne home. The new season will include an homage to Disney's hit "Gravity Falls," featuring guest voices from the series' creator/executive producer Alex Hirsch.
