Disney has revealed the official teaser trailer for their upcoming DuckTales revival.

The series will return next summer and once again sees Scrooge McDuck, his grandnephews – Huey, Dewey, and Louie – and Donald Duck embark on high-flying adventures worldwide.

“DuckTales has a special place in Disney’s TV animation history,” said Marc Buhaj, Senior Vice President, Programming, and General Manager, Disney XD. “It drew its inspiration from Disney Legend Carl Barks’ comic books and through its storytelling and artistic showmanship, set an enduring standard for animated entertainment that connects with both kids and adults. Our new series will bring that same energy and adventurous spirit to a new generation.”

The original DuckTales ran from 1987 to 1990.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
