ABC caps off its spring series of “The Wonderful World of Disney” films with the broadcast premiere of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia” on MONDAY, May 30 (8:00 p.m. EDT), followed by the broadcast premiere of Disney and Pixar’s exhilarating “Brave” on MONDAY, JUNE 6 (8:00 p.m. EDT).
“Zootopia” – Monday, May 30 (8:00-10:30 p.m. EDT)
Determined to prove herself, Officer Judy Hopps, the first bunny on Zootopia’s police force, jumps at the chance to crack her first case — even if it means partnering with scam-artist fox Nick Wilde to solve the mystery.
“Brave” – Monday, Jun. 6 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT)
Merida, an impulsive young lady and daughter to King Fergus and Queen Elinor, is determined to carve her own path in life. Defying the age-old and sacred customs, Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and anger from the other Scottish lords, and in the process, she stumbles upon an eccentric and wise old woman who grants her ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the true meaning of bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.
