After nearly a decade since the show ended, Disney Branded Television officially revealed the voice cast for the highly anticipated new season of Phineas and Ferb. The all-new episodes are due to debut next year on Disney Channel and Disney+.
Co-creators and executive producers Dan Povenmire and Jeff “Swampy” Marsh reunited with the rest of the beloved cast at New York Comic Con, and shared exclusive sneak peeks of the new season including new artwork.
The show’s next chapter will follow the inventive stepbrothers as they tackle another 104 days of summer. Candace is more determined than ever to finally bust her little brothers while their pet platypus, Perry, continues to lead a double life as the suave Agent P, whose sole mission is to thwart Dr. Doofenshmirtz from taking over the tristate area.
Like in previous seasons, Phineas and Ferb’s next season will feature guest appearances from notable actors, musicians, athletes and more. They will join Vincent Martella and David Errigo Jr. as the voices of Phineas Flynn and Ferb Fletcher, respectively, Ashley Tisdale as Candace Flynn, Caroline Rhea as Linda Flynn-Fletcher, Dee Bradley Baker as Perry the Platypus, Alyson Stoner as Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, and co-creators and executive producers Povenmire as Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz and Marsh as Major Francis Monogram.
At the recent D23 – The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Povenmire and Marsh shared video of Season 5’s song “Summer Is Starting Right Now,” and revealed that the writing staff is made up of a mix of returning scribes and new writers who grew up with the show — including actress Olivia Olson, who voices Vanessa Doofenshmirtz in the series.
Phineas and Ferb is a five-time Emmy Award winner, and the most successful animated series for Kids and Tweens in Disney Television Animation history. It originally premiered in January 2008, and quickly became television’s number 1 animated TV series of 2009 among Tweens. This also inspired a TV movie Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension, which ranked in TV’s Top 2 movies for 2011.
The series was a global franchise for Disney, which was a first for a Disney Channel animated property for older kids. Fans last saw Phineas and Ferb in 2020 when Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Candace Against the Universe debuted on Disney+. All four original seasons and the films are currently available on Disney+.
