Mighty Ducks fans, get ready!
The first trailer of the upcoming Mighty Ducks: Game Changers TV series was just released.
The 10-episode Disney+ series features a familiar face that has all the fans excited about: Emilio Estevez.
He's back, more than 25 years off the ice, to reprise his role as Coach Bombay. Based on these Twitter reactions, we'd say that the fans are excited!
The 1992 film, which starred Joss Ackland, Lane Smith, Josef Sommer, Joshua Jackson, and Elden Henson, centered around the ragtag hockey team, the Mighty Ducks.
He was a beloved character, which is why fans were so excited to learn that the actor, now 57, would be reprising his role in the upcoming TV series.
“Once a Duck, always a Duck!” Estevez said in a statement about his return.
He will be joined by some new faces in the 10-episode series, including Gilmore Girls' alum, Lauren Graham, who is playing the lead role of Alex.
Other names joining the cast include Swayam Bhatia, Taegen Burns, Julee Cerda, Bella Higginbotham, Luke Islam, Kiefer O’Reilly, Maxwell Simkins, and De’Jon Watts.
Co-creators, Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa, serve as showrunners.
The anticipated first look shows Alex (Lauren Graham) starting her own hockey team after her son gets cut from the Mighty Ducks competitive team.
"I want you to think of all the other kids who have been told that they're too small or they're too slow," Alex tells her son.
"They just want to get out there and play. Let's start our own team."
The famous peewee hockey coach is first shown fixing a Zamboni machine at the rundown rink called The Ice Palace.
The trailer then shows clips of Bombay becoming more involved with the new team.
"Disney+, you’ve done it again! Mighty Ducks Game Changers!!!!! My childhood has been revived!!!! How I became an @AnaheimDucks fan from the beginning," wrote this fan.
The trailer has served as a nostalgic reminder that the show was a huge part of people's childhoods. "actually kinda hyped about this. The Mighty Ducks was everything to me when i was a kid," tweeted this user.
Emilio was undoubtedly a big part of this.
"Another show about Lauren Graham being a supportive single mother, but this time she's wearing Gophers gear in every scene? Yes, I will be watching Mighty Ducks: Game Changers," wrote this fan.
"Can we talk about the Mighty Ducks movies real quick? I just saw the trailer for the new one and I think I might cry omg," wrote this emotional user.

The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers premieres on Disney+ on March. 26.
