Mickey and Pluto in the Mickey’s Home Alone Trailer
Disney has released the official trailer and key art for Mickey’s Home Alone, giving us a first look at Mickey and Pluto’s plans to fight the festive frenzy that ensues when they’re left home alone. The new holiday special premieres Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 26, at 6:00 p.m. EST/PST on Disney Jr. and streams the next day on Disney+.
The special will have encore airings on Disney Channel Nov. 30 at 7:00 p.m. EST/PST and join Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas on Dec. 19 at 2:00 p.m. EST/PST, with additional airings continuing throughout the season on all platforms.
Mickey’s Home Alone puts a Mickey Mouse spin on the holiday classic. In the special, he can’t wait to spend Christmas at home, but Mickey’s plans take a turn when Minnie surprises him and the gang with tickets to spend Christmas at a world-famous Ice Palace.
In the morning rush to make it out the door, Mickey and Pluto are left behind and home alone, and must protect their Christmas dinner from two feisty villains, a raccoon and a weasel who are after it.
An official EP featuring music from the special will be available to stream on digital music platforms this Friday, Nov. 6, featuring original songs “Ho-Ho-Home for Christmas” and “Favorite Christmas Feeling,” by songwriter Keith Harrison Dworkin, and a new arrangement of the holiday classic “Jingle Bells.”
Mickey’s Home Alone is produced by Wild Canary in association with Disney Jr. The special is executive produced by Tom Rogers and co-executive produced by Rachel Ruderman, with Shane Prigmore as director and score by Tony Morales.
Special screenings of Mickey’s Home Alone will take place throughout the day on Saturday, Dec. 5, at The Paley Center for Media’s annual Paleyland event in New York City. The family-focused event will also feature screenings of other new and returning holiday favorites from Disney+ and Disney Jr.
