“Weird Al” Yankovic’s Disney XD animated series is coming in October

Earlier this year, we learned that “Weird Al” Yankovic would topline the voice cast of a new Disney XD show, Milo Murphy’s Law. The animated series centers on the titular Milo (Yankovic), whose bad luck is genetic. But he’s a plucky kid who’s always “expecting the unexpected,” like having a wrecking ball suddenly drop right in front of him on his way to school. That sounds mighty stressful, which is why it’s a good thing he has two best friends, Zack and Melissa (MeKai Curtis and Sabrina Carpenter, respectively), as well as a backpack filled with all the stuff he needs to confront daily disasters. Yankovic will contribute some original songs, but he’s already released the opening theme.
