People who remember the 1990s might remember The Mighty Ducks, which was a trio of movies about a team of young hockey players, which perhaps unsurprisingly, is called the Mighty Ducks. The movies did not manage to secure much goodwill from the critics, but it is interesting to note that they were a commercial success, so much so that they launched not just an animated series of the same name but also a NHL hockey team of the same name that was renamed following its sale to Henry and Susan Samueli. Regardless, it seems that there are still people who believe in the commercial potential of The Mighty Ducks even though it has been a long, long time since the last movie come out because there is now reports of a TV series undergoing development.
What Might The Mighty Ducks TV Series Look Like?
Unfortunately, it is still so early in the development process that next to no information has been made available about The Mighty Ducks TV series. For example, it seems that the TV series has not been picked up by a TV channel at this point in time, though considering that Disney is set to launch its own streaming service, some people believe that the TV series could end up there if no one else chooses to pick it up. Furthermore, no one knows what The Mighty Ducks TV series will even look like, though it should be mentioned that the screenwriter for the original movies will be writing the script for the new TV series as well. Of course, since there is still no script at this point in time, that means there is still no news about whether anyone has been cast for any roles, seeing as how those remain to be finalized.
Summed up, we know next to nothing about The Mighty Ducks TV series. It could be a reboot, but at this point in time, it could be a follow-up to the original movies as well because no one involved has said anything about the matter one way or the other. The one thing that we do know is that this will be based on the live-action movies rather than the animated TV series, which should come as welcome news to those who remember the first with fondness.
Further Considerations
As development continues on The Mighty Ducks TV series, more news about what interested individuals can expect is sure to come out in a steady manner. Hockey isn’t the most popular sport that can be found in the United States, but there is still a fair number of hockey fans out there. As a result, it is not unimaginable to think that there is a potential fan base for The Mighty Ducks TV show, particularly since its movie predecessors managed to become commercial successes in spite of a much less enthusiastic response from the critics. Still, the success of one does not guarantee the success of the other, so it will be interesting to see how the whole thing turns out in the end.
