Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark
by Timie-Lemmens | created - 24 Mar 2020 | updated - 13 Dec 2022 | PublicMy castlist for a movie adaptation of the first Kingdom Keepers book.
Note 1: I won't be casting the kids as the suggested actors could be too old by the time these movies get made.
Note 2: I have added actors who will only feature in prologue. This said prologue will explain what happened to Mickey and why he is missing for most of the series.
Note 3: I will remove any reference to a Mickey cast member, as I'm considering animated Mickey and cast member Mickey to be the same, as it might get confusing to younger people if they were two different people.
