Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building Brings Us “Angel in Flip-Flops”

Fans of Hulu’s hit series Only Murders in the Building—hey, that’s us!—have been clamoring to hear Charles-Haden Savage’s (Disney Legend Steve Martin) “hit” song, “Angel in Flip-Flops,” ever since it was mentioned in this season’s fourth episode… and lo, that day has come!

Hulu just released a music video for the song, which was said to have debuted at No. 83 on the German music charts in 1989. In reality, the tune was written by Martin and Kirker Butler, and produced by Late Night with David Letterman stalwart Paul Schaffer.

“I am as proud of ‘Angel in Flip Flops’ as I am of any work I’ve done that is not that good,” said Martin, who also serves as co-creator and executive producer for Only Murders in the Building.

New episodes of Only Murders in the Building stream Tuesdays on Hulu!

The rest of the talented cast, whose original performances will be seamlessly woven through the original animated feature, will be announced at a later date.

“I can’t believe I get to be a part of the Beauty and the Beast legacy. The world will see a Black and Filipino Belle,” H.E.R. said. “I have always wanted to be a Disney Princess.”

Yes, it’s true: Earlier this week, Disney+ revealed plans to stream Disney and Pixar’s Lightyear beginning Wednesday, August 3! “Lightyear looks amazing on the big screen, of course, but we are so excited to bring it to Disney+,” said director Angus MacLane. “We devoted years of our lives to this film and we are so proud of it. We want to share it with as many people as possible. Disney+ not only gives more fans an opportunity to see Lightyear, it gives us all the means to see it again and again.”

A sci-fi action adventure and the definitive origin story of Buzz Lightyear (voiced by Chris Evans), the hero who inspired the toy, Lightyear follows the legendary Space Ranger after he’s marooned on a hostile planet 4.2 million light-years from Earth alongside his commander and their crew.

Meet the Characters of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series Season 3!

By Sarah Sterling

Season three of the award-winning Disney+ Original series High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is just a week away! Some of our favorite Wildcats are heading to Camp Shallow Lake for summer camp and there will be plenty of fresh faces to meet as the campers prepare an over-the-top production of Frozen, all while participating in a behind-the-scenes docu-series on the making of their show.

Fan favorites like Ricky Bowen (Joshua Bassett), Gina Porter (Sofia Wylie), E.J. Caswell (Matt Cornett), and Kourtney Green (Dara Reneé) will return this season, with Nini Salazar-Roberts (Olivia Rodrigo) returning as a recurring character, and Big Red (Larry Saperstein), and Seb Matthew-Smith (Joe Serafini) appearing as guest stars. Let’s get to know the handful of new players before you stream the series on Wednesday, July 27!

Matt Cornett (left) and Meg Donnelly (right) in front of a red show curtain. Cornett is standing with his hands behind his back and is wearing a light blue tank top that has a Camp Shallow Lake logo on it in brown. Donnelly is gesturing toward Cornett with a big smile on her face. She has a clipboard in her right hand, as if she is organizing something for their performance. She is wearing high-waisted jeans and a purple and yellow floral print top.

Val (played by Meg Donnelly)
ZOMBIES star Meg Donnelly makes her High School Musical: The Musical: The Series debut as camp counselor-in-training, Val. Val has been a camper at Camp Shallow Lake for a long time, but she’s older now, in college, and ready to tackle the job of choreographing the group’s production of Frozen. Val is already friends with one of our East High pals, E.J. Caswell. Val and E.J. have known each other since they were little kids and grew up going to Camp Shallow Lake together every summer.

A headshot image of Jason Earles. He has short brown hair styles into a point at his forehead. He has some stubble and bright blue eyes. He is wearing a bright blue, almost cyan, dress shirt and a checkered blue and yellow tie.

Dewey Wood (played by Jason Earles)
Fans of Disney Channel’s Hannah Montana will be thrilled to see Jason Earles in this season of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series as Dewey Wood, Camp Shallow Lake’s strict camp director. The exact opposite of laid-back, goofy Jackson Stewart, Dewey Wood is the no-nonsense backbone of the camp and is known to be a “killjoy.”

Co-star Corbin Bleu says that working with Earles created meta layers in the show. Bleu plays himself and Earles plays a fictional character, but pointedly brings up that Earles has been coaching the series cast since season one. “I find it very hard to explain the show sometimes. When I’m trying to explain what’s happening this season, I tell people just watch it. Watch it. It’ll make sense,” says Bleu of this Inception-like plotline.

Corbin Bleu stands confidently with his arms outstretched and a huge smile on his face. His black hair is short and faded. He has on black pants, a black shirt, and a black leather jacket. He seems to be standing in a camp recreation center, with one camper blurry, but visible behind him.

Corbin Bleu (as himself)
He’s back! But this time not as Chad Danforth, the musical-averse jock who majored in vacation. Bleu returns to the High School Musical franchise this season as… himself! Bleu surprises the kids at Camp Shallow Lake when he arrives to announce they will be the first camp in the world to put on a production of Frozen. Bleu will serve as a mentor to the Wildcats this season and, while his character may be a little jaded by the entertainment industry, we have hope that the campers will help him remember his roots and reignite his passion for performing.

Saylor Bell as Maddox in a still from High School Musical: The Musical: The Series Season 3. Maddox is standing alone on an outdoor stage under a sign that reads “Camp Shallow Lake.” She is smiling out at the audience and casually holding her blue acoustic guitar, which is hanging around her shoulders. She is wearing a gray and pink camouflage pattern hoodie, navy blue jogger pants, and slip-on shoes with rainbow socks. She looks as if she just finished a performance.

Maddox (played by Saylor Bell)
Maddox is the chipper and enthusiastic “techie” behind the scenes of Camp Shallow Lake’s performance of Frozen. She is a camp regular and feels very at-home and in control at Camp Shallow Lake. Saylor Bell describes Maddox as “this high-energy, ready to go, ready to have everything put on track kind of kid… which kind of falls apart, slowly, as time goes on.” We can’t wait to see how Maddox handles the hurdles thrown her way when the Wildcats arrive for the summer. 

A headshot image of Adrian Lyles (Jet). Lyles is standing against a wooden wall with his arms crossed in front of him. He isn’t smiling and has a serious expression on his face. He has short, dark, curly hair and is wearing a bleach-spotted denim jacket over a black Hawaiian shirt with palm trees and beach shacks on it.

Jet (played by Adrian Lyles)
Jet is known as the mystery kid of Camp Shallow Lake. No one knows a lot about him because he keeps to himself and is reluctant to participate in camp activities—sometimes even downright annoyed by the idea.

“He must have been dragged here kicking and screaming because, mostly in the beginning, he cannot stand it,” says Adrian Lyles, who plays Jet. “He gets looser and sort of starts to enjoy himself rather than forcing this situation to be a bad thing.”

Jojo Siwa as Madison in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. She is sitting on a wooden swing that has colorful lights wrapped around the side ropes. She is wearing a gold, bedazzled pantsuit, a pink ruffled dress shirt underneath, with hot pink bowtie and cummerbund. Jojo’s long blonde hair is style in loose curls and she is smiling at someone off-camera and grabbing the sides of the swing with both hands.

Madison (played by JoJo Siwa)
Superstar JoJo Siwa joins the cast this season as Madison, a Camp Shallow Lake alum. Details about Siwa’s character and what she does this season are still shrouded in mystery. We hope she gets to show off her incredible singing and dancing skills, maybe joining Bleu in ment­­oring the campers as they rehearse their production of Frozen. No matter what she does, we can’t wait to see Siwa shine!

Jesse Tyler Ferguson sits outside in a lounge chair with his legs crossed. He is looking over an empty fire pit at Olivia Rodrigo who is facing away from the camera. Rodrigo is wearing a denim dress and white sneakers and her long brown hair is half up. Ferguson is wearing light blue jeans, a blue plaid shirt, and a casual black jacket. He has one hand in the air as he talks to Rodrigo. The setting feels like a private home and doesn’t seem to be at Camp Shallow Lake. There is a half full glass of amber liquid in front of Ferguson and there is lots of foliage behind him.

Marvin (played by Jesse Tyler Ferguson)
You’ll recognize Tony® Award-winning actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson from ABC’s Modern Family, where he played Mitchell Pruitt for over 10 years. Ferguson joins the third season of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series as Marvin, a family-friend of Nini’s. In the season three trailer, Nini explains to Miss Jenn (Kate Reinders) that she feels like “something big” is coming—could Marvin be there to help Nini navigate her next step?

A group of campers during a “Color War” scene from High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. There are multiple rows of campers sitting on yellow beams and they are all wearing yellow. In the front row, from left to right, you see Adrian Lyles, Saylor Bell, Frankie Rodriguez, and Dara Reneé. They are cheering, clapping, and singing. Campers behind them are holding signs that say “Hello Yellow,” “Yellow is #1”, and “Yellow All the Way”. Meg Donnelly is on the right side of the image in a denim jumpsuit and holding a mic.

Alex (played by Aria Brooks) and Emmy (played by Liamani Segura), and Channing (played by Ben Stillwell)
Rounding out our cast of new characters is Alex (played by Aria Brooks), an eighth grader who is auditioning for the musical at Camp Shallow Lake for the first time. Alex’s best friend is Emmy (played by Liamani Segura) who is also eager to audition for the summer musical. Finally, Channing (played by Ben Stillwell) is the cameraman for the behind-the-scenes docuseries being produced at Camp Shallow Lake alongside the production of Frozen.

We can’t wait to see what shenanigans our old pals and new campers get up to this season in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, streaming July 27 on Disney+! ­­­It’s not too late to catch up on the first two seasons of this show, both available to stream now on Disney+.

Your Taika Waititi Streaming Roundup!

By Sarah Sterling

To celebrate Waititi’s second directorial adventure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thor: Love and Thunder, we thought it would be worthwhile to explore all the whimsical, hilarious, and rollicking projects he’s been a part of within the worlds of Disney and 20th Century Fox.

So, strap in and Taika look at these movies and shows directed by—or starring—Waititi, because there’s so much Thor to love than just his MCU projects.

Taika Waititi, Utkarsh Ambudkar, and Joe Keery stand facing each other in a sleek, modern office setting, in Free Guy. Waititi has on a long trench coat made of multiple materials, including denim. He is resting casually against the side of a cubicle and is looking at Keery, whose character is speaking. Keery is holding a laptop at his side and is wearing a black polo shirt. In the middle is Ambudkar who is wearing an unbuttoned baseball jersey over a white tank top and black jeans with red lining.

Free Guy (2021)
Set within an open-world video game, 20th Century Studios’ Free Guy follows a non-playable character named Guy (Ryan Reynolds) who realizes he can alter the game, Free City, by breaking free of his programming and participating as a hero character. Simultaneously, in our world, struggling game developer Millie (Jodie Comer) discovers that Free City utilizes the propriety coding created for her own game, Life Itself. Millie and her friend Keys (Joe Keery) must prove that Antwan (Waititi)—the ruthless CEO of Soonami Studios and creator of Free City—stole Millie’s code before he resets the game and reverts Guy to his factory settings.

A promotional banner for What We Do in the Shadows on FX. The image is bathed in a purple glowing light and features the bottom half of the faces of four characters, three of which are vampires and one which is a human wearing fake, neon green vampire teeth. The human character is on the far left and his fake teeth are falling out of his mouth. In the middle are two men with beards baring their fangs. On the far right is a woman also showing her fangs and wearing an ornate earring. The show’s title is written in the bottom right corner in cyan font.

What We Do in the Shadows (2019)
Based on the feature film he co-created with Jemaine Clement, What We Do in the Shadows is a mockumentary television series produced by Waititi following the lives of vampire roommates living together in Staten Island. If you enjoy light horror and a classic fish-out-of-water story, this show should absolutely be on your watchlist! We find it endlessly hilarious to watch this cast of bloodsuckers make their way in the modern human world, and Waititi himself appears in multiple episodes as a Viago, a member of the Vampiric Council and protagonist from the What We Do in the Shadows film.

The IG-11 droid from The Mandalorian stands front and center with both mechanical arms outstretched holding blasters. Behind the droid there are bodies on the ground and one stormtrooper approaching. IG-11 wears a double-breasted holster across the center of its body.

The Mandalorian (2019)
We are all anxiously awaiting more news on Waititi’s directorial debut in the world of Star Wars—but until then, fans can find him in an unlikely place: voicing the droid IG-11 in multiple episodes of The Mandalorian season one. IG-11 is a bounty hunter droid programmed to track down and eliminate our favorite little force-user, Grogu. Luckily, Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) stops him from completing his mission and IG-11 is later reprogrammed to be an ally to him and Grogu.

Korg (Taika Waititi), a gigantic greyish blue rock creature called a Kronan, sits on the ground against a wall and waves one hand pleasantly towards the camera in Thor: Ragnarok. He is wearing a kilt and large metal armor across his body and over his left shoulder. He is leaning against a brown wall with white accents and details and graffiti written in an alien language.

Thor: Ragnarok (2017)
The third installation in the Thor saga follows Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Loki (Tom Hiddleston) as they escape their mysterious sister, Hela (Cate Blanchett), to the planet Sakaar. There, they reunite with Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) in a gladiator-like Contest of Champions. Together with the help of Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) and Korg (Waititi), they defeat Hela and save Asgardian civilization before their home planet is destroyed. Waititi was praised for infusing Thor’s story with humor, heart, and new characters that fans have fallen in love with—including Waititi’s own character, a creature made of rocks called a Kronan, who finds a new home amongst the Asgardians and later joins Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy in their travels.

Stream Thor: Ragnarok on Disney+

Korg (Taika Waititi) sits on Thor’s (Chris Hemsworth) couch in a Hawaiian shirt, holding a video game controller and wearing a headset, in Avengers: Endgame. He is raising his right arm in a wave towards characters off-camera who are greeting him. To his left is another alien creature, Miek, a worm-like being from Sakaar. To Miek’s left is an open box of pepperoni pizza.

Avengers: Endgame (2019)
The next time we see Korg is in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame where he is keeping a very depressed Thor company in New Asgard. Thor’s become a recluse following the events of Avengers: Infinity War and blames himself for not being able to stop Thanos (Josh Brolin) and prevent “The Blip.” Eventually, he finds himself and the will to keep fighting—and Korg is there for the entire journey, even joining the Avengers in the Battle of Earth where Thanos is finally defeated.

Stream Avengers: Endgame on Disney+

Buzz Lightyear’s team in Lightyear sits inside their vehicle in large, bulky space suits. Buzz is at the helm, holding the steering wheel and talking into the recorder on his armpiece. Next to him is Izzy Hawthorne with Sox the robot cat in her lap. In the back seat of the vehicle is Mo Morrison staring out the window and on his right is Dale, who looks grumpy.

Thor: Love and Thunder (2022) & Lightyear (2022)
Catch Korg’s latest appearance in Thor: Love and Thunder, now in theaters! But you can also see—or rather hear—Waititi right now in another theatrical Disney release: Disney and Pixar’s Lightyear! In the film, Waititi voices the bumbling but well-intentioned Mo Morrison, a new recruit who is reluctantly eager to assist Buzz in his mission. Lightyear will be available for streaming on Disney+ starting August 3. Keep an eye on D23.com and our social channels for more information on when Thor: Love and Thunder will be available for purchase or streaming on Disney+.

Everything New You Can Stream on Disney+ in August 2022

By Zach Johnson

Disney+ just announced its listings for August, and we couldn’t stream—er, dream—of a better lineup. The fun begins Wednesday, August 3, with a new installment of Marvel Studios Assembled, taking fans behind the scenes of Ms. Marvel, starring Iman Vellani. Two days later, Lucasfilm and the LEGO Group’s animated special LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation will premiere. It centers on Finn (voiced by Omar Miller), who has arranged a surprise vacation for his friends aboard the Halcyon Galactic Starcruiser! Things go awry when he’s separated from the group. Alone onboard the Halcyon, Finn encounters three Force Spirits—Obi-Wan Kenobi (voiced by James Arnold Taylor), Anakin Skywalker (voiced by Matt Lanter), and Princess Leia (voiced by Shelby Young)—who each share their own surprising stories of vacations gone wrong.

Wednesday, August 10, marks the debut of I Am Groot, a collection of five original shorts starring Baby Groot. Watch as Baby Groot takes center stage in his own series, exploring his glory days growing up—and getting into trouble—among the stars. Speaking of Marvel, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will debut Thursday, August 18. It stars Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, an attorney specializing in superhuman-oriented legal cases, who must navigate the complicated life of a single, 30-something who also happens to be a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk. The nine-episode comedy series features Marvel Cinematic Universe veterans Mark Ruffalo (Smart Hulk), Tim Roth (Emil Blonsky/the Abomination), and Benedict Wong (Wong), as well as Jameela Jamil, Josh Segarra, Ginger Gonzaga, Jon Bass, and Renée Elise Goldsberry.

New episodes of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series will roll out weekly. Speaking of musicals, enjoy sing-along versions of Disney films, from Beauty and the Beast (1991) to The Lion King (2019).
