Kingdom Hearts TV Show Reportedly Coming to Disney+

A Kingdom Hearts TV show is reportedly in development for Disney+.

 

According to a few entertainment industry journalists posting on Twitter, a TV show adaptation of Square Enix’s video game series is in production.

 

 

Emre Kaya, writer for The Cinema Spot, tweeted that Disney originally had plans to make the show, but duties apparently shifted to Square Enix. The company has reportedly created a pilot episode using the Unreal Engine, the software used to build the video games.

“This series is most likely not live-action, but CG animated. They're currently casting,” said Kaya.

 

Kaya claims that the information was originally due to be published as an exclusive report, but that changed due to other insiders knowing about the project. This seemingly encouraged others to add to the conversation, with MCUCosmic founder Jeremy Conrad also claiming that “it’s true”. The DisInsider editor-in-chief Skyler Shuler added more to the story, claiming that “Disney VO actors are expected to reprise their roles (Jim Cummings, Bill Farmer, Tony Anselmo)”.

 

 

Disney originally planned to create a Kingdom Hearts animated series after the success of the original game in 2002, but it was cancelled due to being a “vastly different interpretation” of the game’s story.

Disney nor Square Enix has made any announcement about the animated show, so the official status of such a project - if it is indeed real - remains unknown.

As I said on Discord... unless this resolves the BS troll ass KH3 ending I really don't see the point of this.

This sounds pretty good.  I have not played KH3 yet but I really want to. A show about the series sounds amazing.  I assume it would feature all the classic disney characters plus Anime characters as well.  Nice Combination.
