Dinosaurs Could Come To Disney+
In what is an exciting rumor, it’s possible that the ABC series Dinosaurs is coming to Disney+ later in the year. The news was dropped in passing by Ryan Reynolds (yes, that Ryan Reynolds) during the ABC gameshow Don’t, in which he serves as announcer. We’re unsure if this is actually happening, so for the moment we’re going to claim it as a rumor. We’ve put some feelers out to Disney to see if they can confirm the news!
Coming Soon: Elmo’s World News
As much as people don’t want to think about it, COVID-19 is still a very real threat, and millions of people are still in lockdown. So Sesame Workshop have reached out to their co-productions all around the world to create the new special Elmo’s World News. The Elmo, Cookie and Grover we’re all familiar with will take part, as well as characters from Gali Gali Sim Sim and Ahlan Sim Sim. The special will air sometime this week (we haven’t had an exact date) and be available in 13 different languages! Check out the trailer above.
