UpcomingScripted show

According to the report, Disney is teaming up with "For All Mankind" creator Ron Moore to develop a franchise for the streaming service set in the world of Magic Kingdom. The first project for the new "Magic Kingdom Universe" will be inspired by The Society of Explorers and Adventurers and set in a world where all of the themed lands and characters of the Disney Parks and films actually exist.

The rumored premise of the series would explore characters from the parks as part of the world of S.E.A. – "like a sea boat captain from the Jungle Cruise or prospector from Big Thunder Mountain or the climbers of the Matterhorn," though none of these characters are set in stone at this time.

Moore is reportedly working closely with Walt Disney Imagineering to bring this world to life, and that a search is already underway for writers to join the project.

Should it transcend rumor and come to fruition, the Magic Kingdom Universe and S.E.A. series would be the latest in a treasure trove of franchises for Disney+, following the path set by Marvel and Star Wars projects like "WandaVision" and "The Mandalorian" on the service.

Miss Austen

Miss Austen takes a literary mystery – Cassandra Austen notoriously burning her famous sister Jane's letters – and reimagines it as a fascinating, witty and heart-breaking story of sisterly love, while creating in Cassandra a character as captivating as any Austen heroine.

The drama begins in 1830, a while after Jane has died. Cassandra races to see her young friend Isabella who is about to lose her home following her father's death. Cassandra is ostensibly there to help her friend, but her real motive is to find a stash of private letters which, in the wrong hands, could destroy Jane's reputation. On discovering them, Cassandra is overwhelmed as she is transported back to her youth. In flashback, we meet Young Cassy and Jane as they navigate the infatuations, family feuds and dashed hopes which shaped their lives and laid the foundations for Jane's unforgettable stories. Cassandra's re-evaluation of her past eventually leads her to realise how blind she has been to the real cause of Isabella's heartache and distress. Finding a way to guide Isabella towards true happiness, Cassandra is finally able to understand and celebrate the sacrifices she chose to make for her brilliant sister, Jane.
