The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild Trailer Is Here, Get Ready for Prehistoric Fun on Disney+

The

Ice
Age
franchise
is
making
its
debut
under
the
Disney
banner
in
January
2022
with

The
Ice
Age:
Adventures
of
Buck
Wild
coming
to
Disney+
at
the
turn
of
the
year.
The

Ice
Age
movies
have
previously
been
produced
by
Blue
Sky
Animation
and
was
seen
as
their
main
IP,
having
generated
over
$6
billion
across
five
movies,
numerous
shorts
and
merchandising,
but
with
the
studio
folding
after
Disney’s
takeover
of
20th
Century
Fox,
it
looks
like
Disney
still
believe
there
is
life
in
the
prehistoric
series
yet
and
have
wasted
no
time
in
putting
together
their
first
offering,
which
sees
the
return
of
Simon
Pegg
as
one-eyed
weasel
Buck
Wild.

While
the

Ice
Age
movies
have
been
successful
since
the
original
was
released
in
2002,
the
most
recent
entries
have
continued
to
bring
a
reasonable
box
office
return
but
have
suffered
from
so-so
reviews
and
overall
became
a
disappointment
for
the
studio.
With

The
Ice
Age
Adventures
of
Buck
Wild
labelled
as
a
Disney+
exclusive,
Disney
clearly
don’t
believe
that
the
movie
warrants
a
theatrical
release
but
they
will
be
more
than
happy
to
have
such
a
well-recognised
brand
on
the
Disney+
platform.

There
is
currently
only
a
short
synopsis
available
for
the
movie,
which
reads: “The
fearless
one-eyed
weasel
Buck
(Simon
Pegg)
teams
up
mischievous
possum
brothers
Crash
&
Eddie
as
they
head
off
on
a
new
adventure
into
Buck’s
home:
The
Dinosaur
World.”
A
new
trailer
released
for
the
movie
sees
the
return
of
some
familiar
faces
from
the

Ice
Age
franchise,
including
original
characters
Manny,
Sid
and
Diego,
voiced
once
again
by
Ray
Romano,
John
Leguizamo
and
Denis
Leary
respectively,
along
with
Queen
Latifah
back
to
voice
Ellie.
The
main
cast
is
rounded
off
with
Seann
William
Scott
as
Crash
and
Josh
Peck
as
Eddie.

The
idea
of
a
Buck
Wild
spin-off
was
originally
being
developed
at
Blue
Sky
as
a
TV
series,
which
once
Disney
stepped
in
seemed
like
it
was
heading
to
Disney+
as
an
exclusive
show.
By
Disney’s
Investor
Day
stream
in
2020,
there
was
an
update
given
on
the
project,
which
confirmed
that
a
new

Ice
Age
spin
off
was
in
production
and
would
be
coming
in
the
form
of
a
new
movie
rather
than
the
original
idea
of
a
TV
series.
A
teaser
trailer
for
the
movie
was
released
as
part
of

Disney+
Day,
and
a
premiere
date
has
been
set
for
28th
January,
2022.

The
new
movie
will
be
the
first
entry
to
the
franchise
since
2016’s

Collision
Course,
which
began
to
show
signs
of “jumping
the
shark”
when
it
decided
to
including
all
kinds
of
outer
space
antics
for
the
prehistoric
gang,
with
Scrat’s
never-ending
acorn
chase
resulting
in
him
blasting
into
outer
space
in
a

UFO,
which
triggers
a
series
of
intergalactic
events
that
threaten
to
destroy
Earth.
To
save
the
planet,
the
group
of
friends
must
reunite
with
Buck
and
find
a
way
to
save
the
planet.
From
the
trailer
and
synopsis,
it
looks
like
things
are
going
to
be
a
bit
more
grounded
and
certainly
appears
to
contain
plenty
of
the
humor
that
has
become
the
signature
of
the
series.
