    What is the new Disney+ TV show and when is its release date window?
    Disney+ has announced a new Warrior Cats animated TV show, based on
    the beloved children's book saga. The news comes as part of a deal

    fantasy book series that has become a worldwide publishing
    phenomenon. The TV series is currently in production and will be

    Original Force, which produces CG animation and game content, is
    serving as the animation studio on behalf of Tencent Video.
    A.C. Bradley, who is known for Ms Marvel, What If?, and Tales of
    Arcadia: Trollhunters, will be the showrunner. Emmy Award-winning
