Let's get dangerous again: Darkwing Duck set to return [1]

['Jason Weisberger']

Date: 2026-09-23  

Disney has greenlit a new Darkwing Duck series, with Mark Hamill taking over as Drake Mallard and Seth Rogen voicing Launchpad McQuack. Negaduck and Megavolt are also returning, because some problems really do survive every reboot.

The original "Darkwing Duck" series ran for 91 episodes, beginning on Disney Channel and then airing on ABC from 1991-1993, eventually making its way to video games and comic books.

Now, the new adventure continues as Darkwing Duck navigates a whole new world. The synopsis reads, "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."

Cast includes Hamill as Drake Mallard a.k.a Darkwing Duck, Rogen as Launchpad McQuack, Lizzy Caplan as Gosalyn Mallard, Lilimar as Duckie, Dan Stevens as Glade McTowers, Tiffany Shepis as Rosa, Kathryn Newton as Firecracker, Teo Briones as Timb, Tyler Dean Flores as Pondsy, Katie Rich as Officer Shanks and Nat Faxon as Officer Webb.
