Monsters, Inc. TV series coming to Disney+ with original cast returning
Monsters At Work will follow mechanic Tylor Tuskmon who dreams of becoming a full-time Scarer like his idols, Mike and Sulley
Pixar have announced a Monsters, Inc. TV series will be released next year on Disney's upcoming streaming service.
Monsters At Work will see the original cast returning with John Goodman and Billy Crystal reprising their iconic roles of Sulley and Mike.
Professional 'scarers' Mike and Sulley discovered at the conclusion of the 2001 animated classic that laughter produced more energy than scaring the young children.
The new series will pick up six months later when the lovable duo are busy in charge of the Laughter Floor.
Mad Men actor Ben Feldman stars as junior mechanic Tylor Tuskmon - who aspires to work alongside his idols, Mike and Sulley, but faces a series of adventures in his bid of achieving his dream job.
After rising to fame in 2017's Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Kelly Marie Tran will appear in Monsters At Work as Tylor's best friend, Val Little.
A host of characters will return from the original movie including Mike's girlfriend Celia, and stern receptionist Roz.
Disney+ is expected to launch at the end of 2019 with other TV releases coming from Star Wars and Marvel's Avengers.
