Gracie’s Corner Set to Premiere on Disney+ and Disney Junior!

Gracie’s Corner is set to make its debut on Disney+ and Disney Jr.

The beloved animated series, known for its engaging sing-alongs, will premiere on June 15 across the United States and in various international regions. Viewers can look forward to 68 shorts and seven compilation episodes being available right from the start.

The brainchild of Dr. Javoris Hollingsworth, Dr. Arlene Gordon-Hollingsworth, and their daughter Graceyn “Gracie” Hollingsworth, Gracie’s Corner has captured the hearts of families with its lively tunes, educational themes, and contemporary spins on traditional nursery rhymes.

Initially launched on YouTube, the series has garnered an impressive following, boasting over 6.3 million subscribers and close to 10 billion views to date. Its popularity has paved the way for a book deal with HarperCollins, a nationwide live tour named “Gracie’s Corner Live,” and the honor of receiving four NAACP Image Awards.

“When we began Gracie’s Corner six years ago, we never envisioned this path leading to a partnership with Disney for original content, nor did we anticipate seeing our work featured on Disney Jr. and Disney+,” expressed co-creators Dr. Arlene Gordon-Hollingsworth and Dr. Javoris Hollingsworth in a statement.

The couple said their mission has always been to create fun and educational content that encourages families to sing, dance, learn, and make memories together.

“What began as our family’s passion for creating fun, educational content has grown beyond our wildest dreams. We are honored to partner with Disney to continue bringing joyful stories to families around the world,” they added.

As part of the agreement, Disney has acquired global linear and streaming rights to Gracie’s Corner, including more than 120 shorts and 18 themed compilations. The deal also includes plans to develop brand-new original content.

The show will join Disney Jr.’s preschool lineup alongside favorites such as Bluey, Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, SuperKitties, and the recently launched Sofia the First: Royal Magic.
