Chaos returns to rewrite history in Disney’s new animated film

Disney is ready to welcome the folks at the American Museum of Natural History in New York for another New York nighttime adventure Night at the museum: Kahmunrah gets up again Follower. The brand new animated escapade based on the popular film series opens its doors Disney+ on December 9, 2022. Many of your favorite characters from the original trilogy return, wreaking havoc like never before.

According to Disney’s official press release:

Night at the museum: Kahmunrah gets up again features the voices of Joshua Bassett, Jamie Demetriou, Alice Isaaz, Gillian Jacobs, Joseph Kamal, Thomas Lennon, Zachary Levi, Akmal Saleh, Kieran Sequoia, Jack Whitehall, Bowen Yang and Steve Zahn. The film is directed by Matt Danner, written by Ray DeLaurentis & Will Schifrin, produced by Shawn Levy and executive produced by Emily Morris, Chris Columbus, Mark Radcliffe and Michael Barnathan, with music by John Paesano.

The original film is about the mischief that takes place at the American Museum of Natural History each night as the sun goes down. Nick Daley’s summer job as a night watchman at the museum is a challenging task for a high school student, but he follows in his father’s footsteps and is determined not to let him down. Luckily, he knows the museum’s antique plaque, which brings everything to life when the sun goes down, and is happy to see his old friends, including Jedediah, Octavius, and Sacagawea, upon his arrival. But when the insane ruler Kahmunrah escapes with plans to explore the Egyptian underworld and free his army of dead, it’s up to Nick to stop the insane overlord and save the museum once and for all.

In addition to the debut of Night at the museum: Kahmunrah gets up again Trailer, Disney also shared key art for the upcoming animated film. The poster shows Nick standing next to the massive, sun-drenched bones of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. The art evokes the same vibes as the original film trilogy, although it also marks the beginning of a new era at the museum. I’m a huge fan of the original films and I look forward to seeing the series come to life in the animation medium.
