Disney+ recently announced that Original series “Good American Family” starring Ellen Pompeo, Mark Duplass and Imogen Reid will premiere Wednesday, March 19, 2025 exclusively on Disney+ in Canada with two episodes, followed by one episode weekly.

See the new Trailer here.

Told from multiple points of view, as a means to explore issues of perspective, bias, and trauma, this compelling drama is inspired by the disturbing stories surrounding a Midwestern couple who adopts a girl with a rare form of dwarfism. But as they begin to raise her alongside their three biological children, mystery emerges around her age and background, and they slowly start to suspect she may not be who she says she is. As they defend their family from the daughter they’ve grown to believe is a threat, she fights her own battle to confront her past and what her future holds, in a showdown that ultimately plays out in the tabloids and the courtroom.

The series stars Ellen Pompeo, Mark Duplass and Imogen Reid. Dulé Hill, Christina Hendricks, Sarayu Blue and Jenny O’Hara are recurring guest stars.

Katie Robbins serves as creator and executive producer and ran the show with Executive Producer Sarah Sutherland.

Liz Garbus directed and executive produced the pilot. “Good American Family” is produced by 20th Television.

The first two episodes of Pixar Animation Studios’ “Win or Lose” are now streaming on Disney+. Pixar’s first-ever original series features the intertwined stories of eight different characters as they each prepare for their big championship softball game—the insecure kids, their helicopter parents, even a lovesick umpire. Two new clips are now available to share, plus a featurette, “Creating the Pickles,” in which filmmakers weigh in on the series, its origins and what makes it unique.

The clips highlight characters from two upcoming episodes:

“That’s Game” – In episode two, Frank (voice of Josh Thomson), the umpire for the local softball league, lives his life from the sidelines. On the field, he never waivers: a strike is a strike and an out is an out, period. But good call or not—parents are the worst critics. Also features the voices of Milan Elizabeth Ray and Rosa Salazar.

“Go Rochelle” – In episode four, debuting next Wednesday on Disney+, Vanessa (voice of Rosa Salazar) relies on her social media fans to help her navigate life as a single mom. But when she gets to the game, her daughter Rochelle (voice of Milan Elizabeth Ray) is the only star. “That’s my baby!” Also features the voice of Josh Thomson.

The “Win or Lose” voice cast also includes Will Forte, Rosie Foss, Dorien Watson, Izaac Wang, Chanel Stewart, Lil Re​l Howery, Melissa Villaseñor, Jo Firestone, Flula Borg, Kyleigh Curran, ​Jaylin Fletcher, Erin Keif, Tom Law, Beck Nolan, Orion Tran and Rhea Seehorn. Directed and written by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced by David Lally, “Win or Lose” presents incredibly funny, very emotional and uniquely animated perspectives. The series features music by composer Ramin Djawadi and original songs by CAMPFIRE and Djawadi.

New episodes of “Win or Lose” stream Wednesdays only on Disney+.

The trailer for “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip” have arrived! The all-new family comedy will stream exclusively on Disney+ beginning March 28, 2025.

“Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip” follows 11-year-old Alexander and his family as they embark on a dream Spring Break vacation to Mexico City only to have all their plans go terribly wrong when they discover a cursed idol. The family is put to the test until they resolve to return the idol to its rightful home. The film, which stars Eva Longoria, Jesse Garcia, Paulina Chávez, Rose Portillo, Cristo Fernández, Harvey Guillén, Mabel Cadena, Michelle Buteau, and introducing Thom Nemer, with Cheech Marin, is directed by Marvin Lemus and written by Matt Lopez, based on the book “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” by Judith Viorst. The producers are Shawn Levy, Dan Levine, p.g.a., Dan Cohen, Lisa Henson, p.g.a., with Eva Longoria, Emily Morris, and Shelly Strong serving as executive producers.

Alexander Garcia (Thom Nemer) has always believed he has the worst luck in the world, so when his mom Val (Eva Longoria) devises a plan to bring her seemingly disconnected family on a fancy vacation to Mexico City aboard a luxury RV as part of her travel writing job, he is sure it will end in disaster. Despite his fears, the family – including dad Frank (Jesse Garcia), teen sister Mia (Paulina Chávez), Grandma Lidia (Rose Portillo), and Grandpa Gil (Cheech Marin) – set out, only to find absolutely everything is going terribly wrong. When the family discovers an ancient, cursed idol may be to blame, they must work together to return it to where it belongs.

132 rooms. 157 suspects. One dead body. One wildly eccentric detective. One disastrous State Dinner. The Residence is a screwball whodunnit set in the upstairs, downstairs, and backstairs of the White House, among the eclectic staff of the world’s most famous mansion.
