The official trailer for the Disney+ movie Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers is finally out, and it doesn’t need a pair of eagle eyes to notice that the promo video is stuffed with cameo appearances from a number of popular Disney characters.
Lumiere from 1991’s Beauty and the Beast, Flounder from 1989’s The Little Mermaid, and Seth Rogen’s Pumbaa from 2019’s The Lion King all make an appearance in the trailer. The video also features a washed-up version of Peter Pan, a photo of one of Snow White’s seven dwarfs, a cosplayer in Thor costume, and a pair of mice dressed up as Star Wars’ Princess Leia and Anakin Skywalker.
At one point in the trailer, Chip (John Mulaney) and Dale (Andy Samberg) face an evidence wall filled with accessories from different animated characters. There’s Mickey Mouse’s glove, Robin Hood’s hat, and Sora’s keyblade. Interestingly, the evidence wall also features nods to a number of non-Disney characters, including Jimmy Neutron’s hair, Samurai Jack’s katana, Snagglepuss’ face, and what appears to be Detective Pikachu’s tail.
A Sailor Moon and a Mario cosplayer are also seen in the trailer, as well as a Hello Kitty backpack and Dragon Ball’s Shenron. Watch the trailer below to spot more Easter eggs.
