Rolling Stone Mighty Ducks Return (as the Bad Guys) in First Trailer for Disney+ Reboot The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers premieres March 26th By The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers. Whereas the Mighty Ducks of the Nineties movie franchise were a ragtag crew of Minnesota misfits, the reboot finds the Ducks as a strict hockey powerhouse that shuns uniqueness; essentially, the Mighty Ducks are now what the bully Hawks were in the first film. The 10-episode season takes place in 2021 Minnesota and follows 12-year-old Evan Morrow (Brady Noon), who, after being dropped from the team, works with his mother Alex (Lauren Graham), to form their own squad.
