The official logline states, “For the last 35 years, Darkwing Duck has been trapped in his worst nightmare: an alternate world that’s never heard of his superhero exploits. Now a rebellious teen named Duckie who knows all about his heroic past shows up to pull this ego-fueled vigilante back into battle. Together, this unlikely duo will get dangerous to fight old enemies like Negaduck and Megavolt and reunite with allies Launchpad, Gosalyn and Morgana to save the entire universe.”

Mark Hamill is 74. Jim Cummings, the original voice actor for Darkwing Duck, is 73. Why recast for someone older?

Hamill is older than the original voice actor for Darkwing Duck, fwiw.

Is there a market for this outside of people who look like this?

I'm the target audience. Still have my Darkwing Duck NES game in the box with the manual and everything.

Given the casting choices so far, and this news release, it looks like this is one to skip. We'll see what happens.

Basically anything that targets elder millennial nostalgia is in Hollywood's eyesights lol.

Darkwing Duck was a great early 90s cartoon tho.

They did a new kids version of DuckTales. I did love all three of the shows tho. And Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers.

TaleSpin was my favorite out of all of them - elite.

You shut your whore fricking mouth, whore.

The new DuckTales was fricking awesome. Bobby Moynihan, Danny Pudi and Ben Schwartz are gold in that show, nevermind the incredible David Tennant.

It lasted 3 seasons. Not a bad run at all. Hardly a failure.

And it deserved more.

It's Peter Cullen and Optimus Prime all over again. The OG voice actors aren't going to be around forever - Cummings is already in house for a million Disney projects - what's one more?

Please don't frick this up.

Such an amazing theme song. I still get goosebumps.

NegaDuck was a great foil, too.

Yep. Makes no sense. It's Tim Allen and Buzz Lightyear all over again.

Didn't Rogen make a new ninja turtles that people really liked? I know this board chooses when to look at rotten tomatoes but both ratings are 90%-95%.

Ah I see he is a producer on it. Point Grey is his company with his buddy Goldberg. Seems pretty involved?
