‘Mighty Ducks’ TV Series is Currently in Development

Date:

Grab your hockey sticks. A Mighty Ducks TV series is currently in the works.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Mighty Ducks franchise may be headed to your television screens. The TV series is in early development for a series based on the 1990s dreamed about a youth hockey team. A network has not picked up the TV series yet.

The movie starred Emilio Estevez. However, the actor is not currently attached as a script has not been written yet. What remains unclear is if the Mighty Ducks TV series is a sequel or a reboot and if the show is 30 minutes or an hour long.

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the Mighty Ducks TV show is in its early stages and will not be taken out anytime soon. As for a potential home, insiders note that ABC Signature could take the project out to other broadcast or cable networks in addition to shopping it to streaming platforms. 

The Mighty Ducks was released 26 years ago by Walt Disney Pictures. The movie was produced on a  $10 million budget and starred Estevez as Gordon Bombay, a Minneapolis attorney who winds up coaching a pee-wee hockey team as community service after a drunk-driving arrest. Despite negative reviews from critics, the film went on to become a box-office hit, grossing $50.7 million domestically. That led to two sequels — 1994’s D2: The Mighty Ducks (with Estevez) and 1996’s D3: The Mighty Ducks, which was built around original film star Josh Jackson’s Charlie Conway.
