Disney has announced that three new episodes of the animated series, “Hamster & Gretel” will be released on Disney+ in the United States on Wednesday, 10th January 2024.

The music-filled “Hamster & Gretel” introduces Kevin and his younger sister Gretel, who are about to be bestowed superpowers by space aliens. But something goes awry, and it’s Gretel and her pet hamster (named Hamster) who suddenly have new abilities. Now, protective older brother Kevin must figure out how to work with both Gretel and her pet Hamster to protect their city from mysterious dangers.

The three episodes being added to Disney+ include:

• Romancing the Scone – Gretel and Nordle encounter a strange and powerful scone.
• For Whom the Belle Trolls – A social media influencer threatens to destroy Hamster and Gretel’s reputation.
• An Arthouse Divided – Things go terribly wrong at a movie premiere.

Starring in the series is newcomer Meli Povenmire as Gretel; Michael Cimino (“Love, Victor”) as Gretel’s older brother, Kevin; Beck Bennett (“SNL”) as Gretel’s pet hamster, Hamster; Joey King (“Kissing Booth”) as her tech-savvy cousin, Fred; Matt Jones (“Bob Hearts Abishola”) as the siblings’ easygoing father, Dave; and Carolina Ravassa (“Maya and the Three”) as their charismatic mother, Carolina.

Created by Dan Povenmire (of the Emmy Award-winning global hit series “Phineas and Ferb”), “Hamster and Gretel” is produced by Disney Television Animation and is inspired by Povenmire’s relationship with his significantly younger sister. Brandi Young (“Milo Murphy’s Law”) serves as producer; Joanna Hausmann (“Bill Nye Saves the World”) will serve as co-producer/story editor, and Dorothea Gerassimova (“Mira, Royal Detective”) is the art director.

The previous 27 episodes of the first season of “Hamster & Gretel” are available to stream now on Disney+.
