It’s Sunday and gameday! Disney has releasing some classic “Airbud” movies on Disney+ and livestreaming a special animated version of today’s international NFL game.

Here’s the rundown:

Toy Story Funday Football

When the Falcons and Jaguars face off in London on Oct 1, a real-time, fully animated alternate presentation from Andy’s Room will be on Disney+ and ESPN+.   Andy’s room will replicate the on-the-field gameplay from Wembley Stadium, where each Falcon and Jaguar player will have animated representation on a traditional looking field, catered to the “Toy Story” setting. Fans will view every run, pass, score and all football-related action through state-of-the-art tracking technology enabled by the NFL’s Next Gen Stats player tracking data and Beyond Sports.

In addition to the gameplay, all the surrounding aspects of the game – announcers, graphics, scoreboard, penalty announcements, celebrations, and more – will all embrace the “Toy Story”-themed offering in their packaging and delivery, all occurring in Andy’s room. Woody, Buzz Lightyear and many of the characters from the acclaimed animated series will be visible throughout, participating from the sidelines and in other non-gameplay elements.

Streaming live at 9:30 a.m. ET / 14:30 BST
