Anticipation for the series is so high that Disney's top brass have already commissioned and second series before the premiere!

“One of the things we always loved about the old show was that it was this family of adventurers, but the emphasis in every episode had always been on the adventure and plotline,” says co-producer Francisco Angones speaking to Entertainment Weekly. “The basic conceit of growing our show was that this is a big blended family of adventurers, so it should feel like a combination of Indiana Jones and a blended Arrested Development-style family sitcom where every character has a different relationship to one another.”

Entertainment Weekly also have an exclusive look at a host of other characters that will make up the community of Duckburg - check them out here!
