Disney has announced that a new documentary about the Disney animated movie, “Not Just A Goof”, will be coming soon to Disney+ in April.

In 2022, directors Christopher Ninness and Eric Kimelton set out to make a simple documentary about their favourite Disney film. Then they discovered the complex power of art, and how a character as silly as Goofy can mean so much to so many people. So begins the untold story behind that unlikely cult-classic, “A Goofy Movie”.

This captivating documentary reveals how a team of untested young filmmakers took on the challenge of building their first feature around an iconic Disney character, without realizing the obstacles, clashes, and victories awaiting them. Through interviews with the key figures involved in “A Goofy Movie’s” creation, as well as rare, previously unreleased archival footage and stunning animation, Ninness and Kimelton’s film gets inside the studio’s inner workings and provides an unfiltered perspective on behind-the-scenes magic.

The movie has previously had its world premiere at the California Film Festival last May and the documentary was also featured at last year’s D23: The Ultimate Fan Event.

Disney has announced that the movie will be released on Disney+ on Monday 7th April 2025.  You can also find “A Goofy Movie” on Disney+ now.
