As the Jacksonville Jaguars and Atlanta Falcons get ready to hop across the pond for a matchup in London, the NFL has something special planned as Disney and the league have hatched a plan to show the game from a new perspective.
On “Toy Story Funday Football,” players will be in full animation as characters from the iconic Disney film series. For fans to view it, they will have to tune in to Disney+ alongside the traditional broadcast on ESPN+ and local television stations.
It will air at the same time as the real NFL International Series game, which takes place at Wembley Stadium in London.
On ESPN+, viewers will see sports network mainstays like Chris Fowler, Dan Orlovsky, Louis Riddick, and Laura Rutledge calling the game.
On Disney+, viewers can watch Woody, Buzz, Bo Peep, Bullseye, Bunny, Ducky, Forky, Green Aliens, Jesse, Rex, and Slinky Dog in various game-day antics.
