Disney is getting ready to unleash a pack of new animated pooches on June 14. Created and exec produced by Emmy-nominee Travis Braun (T.O.T.S.), the new music-filled series is called Pupstruction and it follows a pack of hard-working construction pooches ranging from “some of the brawniest breeds to irresistibly cute and playful puppies.” The show will premiere on Disney Channel and Disney Junior (8 p.m. on June 14) as well as Disney+ and on-demand platforms on the same day.
Here is the official synopsis: The colorful preschool show “centers on crew leader Phinny, an innovative young corgi who dreams up some of the biggest and wildest ideas to help his town of Petsburg. The other members of Pupstruction are Luna, a comically spontaneous sheepdog; Roxy, a can-do rottweiler; and Tank, a lovable, snack-obsessed mastiff. Although Phinny might be the smallest pup on the crew, he proves that you don’t need big paws to have big ideas. Together, the Pupstruction crew uses mud, sweat, drool and plenty of heart to build and create.”
The series stars Yonas Kibreab as Phinny, Carson Minniear as Tank, Scarlett Kate Ferguson as Roxy and newcomer Mica Zeltzer as Luna, as well as Yvette Nicole Brown as Mayor Gilmore, Bobby Moynihan as Bobby Boots, Grey DeLisle as Maya, Kari Wahlgren as Scratch, Eric Bauza as characters Harry, Sniff and Lloyd, and Alessandra Perez as Bailey. Other voices are provided by Olga Merediz, Todrick Hall, Gabriel Iglesias and Nate Torrence.
Geared towards kids ages 2-7, each episode features two 11-minute stories with an original song in each episode. The main title theme song, written by series’ songwriter/composer Rob Cantor, will be released on Friday, May 12.
In addition to Braun, the series’ creative team for season one includes Victor Cook (“T.O.T.S.”) as executive producer, Robyn Brown (“Muppet Babies“) as co-producer/story editor and Abigail Nesbitt (“T.O.T.S.”) as supervising director. Rob Cantor (The Ghost and Molly McGee) is songwriter and c.omposer. Pupstruction is produced by Titmouse in association with Disney Junior.
