Disney Branded Television has picked up Miraculous Stellar Force (pictured), the first-ever spinoff of Miraculous Corp’s hit series Miraculous—Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, for a 2027 release. 

Targeting kids ages six and up, the 2D-animated action/comedy series will premiere on Disney+ and Disney Channel. Ladybug’s creator Thomas Astruc is also behind the new anime-style show, which revolves around students at a school in Tokyo who guard a cosmic weapon and battle evil villains. 

To pave the way for the new series, Disney will premiere a one-hour special called Miraculous World: Tokyo Force later this year (release date TBA). This special follows characters from Ladybug & Cat Noir as they help set up the Stellar Force team. 

Andy Yeatman, CEO of Miraculous Corp USA and global operations, teased the new series at MIP Junior last October, noting that it’s part of an overall strategy to introduce new characters each year through TV movies, and then give them their own series.

Miraculous is one of the hottest kids IPs at the moment, with Ladybug‘s five seasons available in more than 150 countries. A sixth season launched in Q1 this year, and season seven is in production for a 2026 release. The franchise—which also includes TV movies and a 2023 feature film—has topped more than US$1 billion in worldwide retail sales. 

And the Stellar Force spinoff isn’t the only Miraculous content that’s in the works. In May, Disney Branded Television and France-based TF1 acquired the 2D-animated Miraculous Chibi (52 x three minutes), aiming for a 2026 rollout. That show reimagines the Ladybug series through slapstick action and cute chibi-style art.
