Great catch, Danny! I had no idea! Pretty cool that they are showing the original #sofiathefirst movie the day before launching the new show! 💜

One of these things is not like the other lol

Animation Magazine has a really wonderful article about the new trailer and includes a still of my favorite scene in the first episode of #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic! We spent a lot of time (which we usually don't have) getting the characters, backgrounds and lighting just right for this moment.

The full trailer for #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic is out on YouTube. Let me know what you think. <bracing myself> 💜

Big day today! The 5 shorts introducing Sofia's new friends dropped on Disney Plus, @ynb.bsky.social revealed her new character Lady Saddlespur while talking about a joint charity collab she is doing with Disney and @donorschoose.bsky.social - AND a new Royal Magic trailer is out! So much Sofia! 💜

I thought these were coming out tomorrow but I guess two of them are out now. Three more will follow. These shorts are simple introductions to the characters and world--written by our writing staff, then produced by the marketing team. Welcome to Charmswell! #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic

Not only are Jade and Ruby going to be in #sofiathefirstroyalmagic, Isabella Acres and Diamond White are returning to voice their characters! One of the best parts of doing the new show is reuniting with the amazing actors from the OG show. We’re getting the band back together! 💜 #sofiathefirst

Disney IT sometimes sends fake phishing emails to employees in order to test online security. Today's email came from "Nathan Huffhines" and the attachment was "Unpainted Arizona." Two super-deep-cut Raising Arizona references. To the Coen Bros fan in Disney IT, I salute you! 🫡

So adorable! 💜💜💜

OMG - it's Bo and Harry from #firebuds! 🔥❤️

If you wanna listen to the new #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic theme song and possibly get a sneak peek of the other song titles that will be released on 5/29, head to your local music streaming service now! 🎵🎶👑💜 #SofiaTheFirst #RoyalMagic

So much #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic info today! Where to even start? Show debuts on Disney Channel & Disney Junior on 5/25 w/ 8 eps dropping on Disney+ on 5/26! Sofia will be visited by Moana, Rapunzel, Jasmine, Cinderella, Aurora & Elena of Avalor!!! Oh and here's the new main title sequence! 👑💜✨

It's like we assembled the Comedy Avengers! Having so much fun working with the ah-mazing @ynb.bsky.social, Tony Hale, Beanie Feldstein, James Monroe Iglehart, Rachel Bloom, Nat Faxon, Jeremy Swift, Ethan Slater and Jeremy Jordan! They're putting the magic in #SofiaTheFirst #RoyalMagic 💜👑✨

What an unexpected delight running into @diedrichbader.bsky.social last night, who voiced P.I. Carlowe - a street sweeping detective who was cleaning up the streets in the #Firebuds favorite TV show. One of my favorite character designs from the series and we got to do a B&W noir look!

My boys just tried to go to their gym which, unfortunately for them, is across the street from the Vanity Fair Oscar party. So no gym tonight, boys. Just a bunch of black Escalades and detours back home lol.

This happened last fall, but I just found out about it now and it's so sweet so I had to share it. ❤️💃 #ElenaOfAvalor #DisneyWorld

Setting aside the world going haywire for a moment to celebrate #Firebuds winning a @glaad.bsky.social award last night for our Mother's Day episode! So proud of the cast and crew for giving their all in making a show that highlighted inclusivity and diversity. 🏳️‍🌈🔥❤️

You don't usually see articles this thoughtful and perceptive about preschool animation. Definitely worth a read (though I am not confirming or denying any conclusions drawn about the new show). I greatly appreciate the author's thorough analysis! 💜 animesuperhero.com/editorial-ho...

Looking forward to showing my youngest son #SofiaTheFirst #OnceUponAPrincess for the first time tonight - now that it’s finally streaming on #DisneyPlus! He’s about to find out how Sofia started learning what being royal’s all about! 💜

Can confirm that our #SofiaTheFirstRoyalMagic crew is very excited about the new fan art popping up and has already printed a lot out and put it up in the office. Also the bingo cards - although it will still be very hard to win imho lol. 💜👑✨

A beautiful sketch from one of our amazing storyboard artists! #SofiaThefirst #RoyalMagic 💜

Watched her win the gold live right before mixing episode 6 of #SofiaTheFirst #RoyalMagic last Thursday. I felt the same way afterwards. Even played this clip for the team. May we all feel this kind of joy at work!

If you ever want to know how much people loved your old show, make a sequel. My goodness, if there was this much love for it in 2017, they wouldn't have canceled it in the first place.

The other exciting thing that happened the other day was the announcement that Jess Harnell will be back as Cedric, Darcy Rose Byrnes will be back as Amber and I get to work with Nate Torrence, Mela, Kai and Aaliyah who will be voicing fun new characters. Huzzah! #SofiaTheFirst #RoyalMagic!

Something exciting is happening after my Worldscreen Kids TV Festival keynote presentation this morning. Stay tuned…..

The third & final season of #Firebuds is now on #DisneyPlus! Come meet the Aquabuds, journey to Rainbow Island, celebrate Noche Buena, and meet tugboat/surf fan Keanu Waves! It's bittersweet to see the Buds roll into the sunset but it was a great ride w/ an awesome cast & crew! #FirebudsForever 🔥❤️

Very excited for this! 🔑 🗒️ 🎤 😊

One thing I found deeply moving about resistance in the Twin Cities was the universalism of loving your neighbor, the philosophy driving the opposition to the ICE/BP invasion. I couldn't help but notice the contrast with the blood and soil-ism of Miller and Vance. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

February 27 - a day I've been waiting (and pleading) for! Sofia's debut movie #OnceUponAPrincess will finally arrive on Disney+! Not only is it the start of Sofia's journey, it was my first solo writing credit. This is where it all began... #SofiaTheFirst 💜

These are screen grabs from an internal animation test we did a year and a half ago. I'm surprised these images were released. Sofia's model has been revised at least 9 times since this test.

I guess it’s the year of the potato then. Happy new potato everyone! 🥳

So honored that #Firebuds won a Velma Award for our "Mother's Day Mess" episode, which featured Violet celebrating Mother's Day with her two moms. The crew worked extra hard to bring this much-needed representation to the screen! Thank you @therainbowproject.bsky.social & @thevelmas.bsky.social! 🙏🏳️‍🌈

I literally thought this was an Onion article when I first saw it @bencollins.bsky.social

We had a 1970s station wagon. I hated it. Who in their right mind wants bad cars and more pollution back?

From Princess Vivian to the Princess of Pop! So incredible to see Sabrina Carpenter fully embrace her superstardom on the first night of her 6 show run in LA. I took my teenage son who was 4 when he last saw her at the #sofiathefirst premiere. What a difference a decade makes! 👏👑💕

My son & I went to the 1st game played at Dodger Stadium this year and the second to last game (Gm 4 of the World Series). Still can't believe the Dodgers pulled off the greatest Game 7 comeback I've ever seen. What a season! Glad we got to witness some of it in person w/ our fellow Angelenos! 💙⚾️🏆🏆

As a long-time Dodger fan, Game 7 had the highest ratio of "now we're screwed" to "now we're gonna win" moments of any game I've ever seen. It was like 30 to 2. I'm still recovering.

Yes I wore my Dodgers cap the entire 6:40 of the game tonight in case you were wondering. If the game had lasted any longer, I’m sure I would have slept in it.

I realized in the 6th inning tonight that I hadn’t been wearing my Dodgers cap during the World Series that I’d been wearing for every playoff game this year. Put it on and the bats came to life. So sorry. I learned my lesson. #SuperstitionsForTheWin

The most eloquent sign I saw at the No Kings protest today #TheTurdReich #NoKings #dtla

The Orange Baby Rises #nokings #dtla

Tyrannosaurs against tyranny #nokings #dtla

Spent the afternoon with my fellow @wgawest.bsky.social members and thousands patriotic Angelenos at the #nokings protest standing up for democracy, the rule of law, and justice for all

AP or AI? You be the judge.

Time to meet the Aquabuds! Season 3 of #Firebuds starts today on #DisneyJunior! I'm very proud of the entire animation team who did an outstanding job managing water, wakes, and boats - which are incredibly tough to animate on a TV budget. Let's roll! 🔥❤️🛥️🛟

Here's a really nice article about the best Violet episodes in #Firebuds. Thank you for ranking them! 💜🔥❤️ animesuperhero.com/review-fireb...

How could I forget Minimus!?! 💜

The Cars folks are just down the hall from us and there are a bunch of #ElenaOfAvalor alums on the crew. Congrats to Travis and the gang on the big announcement! I gladly hand off the talking vehicle show torch to them...oh and speaking of that, Firebuds Season 3 is coming this September! 🚒🔥❤️

Not only did Disney reveal the logo for the new #SofiaTheFirst series today, they also revealed that Wayne Brady, Tim Gunn, Sara Ramirez and Travis Willingham are all coming back to voice their original roles! So thrilled to have the royal family back together! #RoyalMagic 👑✨
