PHINEAS & FERB Revival in the Works at Disney With Creator Dan Povenmire Bringing Us 40 New Episodes
Great news was delivered this week for fans of the hit Disney series Phineas and Ferb! The show, which ran from 2007-2015, is returning, with its creator, Dan Povenmire, inking a deal with Disney that will bring us two new seasons that will include 40 new episodes. It’s not clear where the episodes will air, since Disney Branded Television currently produces series across Disney Channel, Disney+, Disney Junior and Disney XD.
Povenmire said of the show’s return:
“There’s songs that we wrote in 2005 for this show that are trending on TikTok. That has been one of the best times in my career is the fact that this whole generation of kids and parents really took this show into their hearts, and it still means so much to them.”
This is no surprise to me, considering my husband and I regularly burst into songs from Phineas and Ferb, and my kids still watch it as well. It’s a show that everyone in the family enjoys, and we are stoked to see it return.
Povenmire’s overall deal also includes a second season of his latest Disney Channel series, Hamster & Gretel.
It hasn’t been confirmed whether the original voice cast will return for the revival, though many of them did return for Candace Against the Universe in 2020, including Ashley Tisdale as Candace Flynn; Vincent Martella as Phineas Flynn; Caroline Rhea as their mom, Linda; Dee Bradley Baker as Perry the Platypus; Alyson Stoner as Isabella; Maulik Pancholy as Baljeet; Bobby Gaylor as Buford; Olivia Olson as Vanessa Doofenshmirtz; Tyler Mann as Carl; and Povenmire and Marsh as Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz and Major Monogram, respectively. David Errigo Jr. joined the cast as Ferb Fletcher.
Phineas and Ferb previously ran for four seasons on the Disney Channel. There’s also been two animated movies, Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension and Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Candace Against the Universe. All four original seasons and the films are currently available on Disney+.
