Disney’s ‘DuckTales’ Reboot is coming soon to a living room near you.
Disney is bringing back Scrooge McDuck and the rest of the gang in a new reboot for Disney XD. According to reports, “DuckTales” reboot is set to be launched in 2017.
The original Emmy-winning series aired from 1987-1990 as part of The Disney Afternoon daily cartoon block, and spawned an animated theatrical release in 1990 as well.
The reboot will, like the original, follow McDuck, his grandnephews Huey, Dewey and Louie and Donald Duck as they adventure around the world. Other characters from the original, including Duckworth, Gyro Gearloose, Launchpad McQuack, Flintheart Glomgold, Magica DeSpell and Poe, Ma Beagle and the Beagle Boys (Burger Beagle, Bouncer Beagle), Mrs. Beakley and Webbigail Vanderquack, are also set to return.

DuckTales will be shown to a whole new generation. It will be interesting to see how Scrooge saves his money in the market crash of 2008 or the skyrocketing gas prices of 2015.
