Disney Junior premieres Spidey And His Amazing Friends from Marvel Animation this October
Brand-new series Marvel’s Spidey and His Amazing Friends, which is geared toward pre-schoolers and their families, is set to debut soon and will be the first full-length Marvel series for the Disney Junior audience, premiering Saturdays and Sundays at 10am (CAT) from 16 October only on DStv, channel 309.
Our favourite neighbourhood super-hero is used to working solo, but now Peter Parker must discover what it takes to become a truly amazing super-hero: being a spider friend who works well with others. Together with his friends Miles Morales and Gwen AKA Ghost-Spider, they will team up with heroes such as Hulk, Black Panther and Ms. Marvel, to defeat evil foes and learn that teamwork is the best way to save the day.
Preschool kids already love Spidey, so they’ll be delighted to have Peter Parker web-slinging across their screens in this new series, which showcases the exciting adventures of Spidey and his friends as they model the importance of teamwork and helping others in their community. The series is the introduction for pre-schoolers to the super-hero powers of friendship and working together to help others in need.
Marvel’s Spidey and His Amazing Friends is executive produced by Alan Fine (Marvel's The Avengers), Joe Quesada (Marvel’s Avengers Assemble), Dan Buckley (Marvel’s Spider-Man), Cort Lane (Ultimate Spider-Man), and Eric Radomski (Marvel’s Avengers Assemble); co-executive produced by Marsha Griffin (Marvel’s Spider-Man), and supervising producer Harrison Wilcox (Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy). Alfred Gimeno (Marvel Rising) serves as supervising animation producer, and Ashley Mendoza (PJ Masks) as story editor.
