JUST ANNOUNCED: New ‘Phineas and Ferb’ movie explores major time-travel twist 

LOS ANGELES — The Flynn brothers are heading back to the backyard — with a twist!

“Phineas and Ferb” are getting a new movie from co-creators Dan Povenmire and Swampy Marsh, and this time, the adventure asks an unexpected question: What if Phineas and Ferb never met?

The story summary is as follows: “Dr. Doofenshmirtz’s latest timetravel experiment backfires, erasing the moment Phineas’ mom meets Ferb’s dad – meaning the boys never become brothers, and every day is merely adequate. As reality unravels and the future hangs in the balance, Phineas and Ferb must restore the timeline before it’s too late.”

“We’ve always wanted to explore a story centered on family and unconditional love, preferably in a way that’s bold and sentimental yet classically funny,” Povenmire and Marsh explained.

“We’re grateful to Ayo and her team for giving us the runway to expand Danville and take these characters to a whole new level.”

Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television, shared, “This movie gives Dan and Swampy the chance to stretch that world even further and play with what happens when everything gets turned on its head.”

The returning cast includes Vincent Martella as Phineas, David Errigo Jr. As Ferb, Ashley Tisdale as Candace, Alyson Stoner as Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, Povenmire as Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, and Marsh as Major Francis Monogram.

Production on the movie will begin this year, with the project set to stream on Disney+ and air on Disney Channel.

Fans won’t have to wait long for new content, new episodes of “Phineas and Ferb” debut Jan. 17 on Disney+.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Disney+ and this ABC station.
