Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers—Friday, May 20, on Disney+
Chip (voice of John Mulaney) and Dale (voice of Andy Sandberg) are living amongst cartoons and humans in modern-day Los Angeles, but their lives are quite different since the cancelation of their hit TV series. Chip is a suburban insurance salesman, while Dale has had CGI surgery and works the nostalgia convention circuit. But when a former castmate mysteriously disappears, the duo must embrace their Rescue Rangers detective personas once again to save the day.
The Valet—Friday, May 20, on Hulu
In this Hulu Original film—an English-language remake of the hit French film—world famous movie star Olivia (Samara Weaving) faces a PR disaster when a paparazzi snaps a photo of her with her married paramour, Vincent (Max Greenfield). When Antonio (Eugenio Derbez), a hard-working valet, accidentally appears in the same photo, he’s enlisted to pose as Olivia’s new boyfriend. The cover up hilariously thrusts Antonio into the spotlight, and he’s forced to adjust to instant fame.

The nine-episode series follows Mia (Sofia Wylie), a 15 year old who dreams of becoming a professional dancer. She puts those dreams on hold to help care for her sister Skyler (Somali Rose)—but with the help of her best friend Fredgy (Sydney Sepulveda), and a new mentor, she soon learns how to express herself through the dynamic world of street dance.
