As if it isn't already exciting enough that DuckTales is making a return next year with a brand new show on Disney XD, the star-studded cast was just announced -- and it's pretty impressive. To give you a taste of just how special the roster is, David Tennant (Doctor Who, Jessica Jones) was brought on to voice Scrooge McDuck! Danny Pudi (Community, Star Trek Beyond), Ben Schwartz (Parks and Recreation, BoJack Horseman), and Bobby Moynihan (Saturday Night Live) will be playing Huey, Dewey, and Louie respectively.

The rest of the cast will be rounded out by: Beck Bennett (Saturday Night Live) as Launchpad McQuack, Toks Olagundoye (Castle, The Neighbors) as Mrs. Beakley, and Kate Micucci (Milo Murphy's Law) as Webby Vanderquack. Wait for it. There's more! Alongside the announcement was this amazing video of the cast.

The other characters slated to make a return are: Donald Duck, Flintheart Glomgold, Duckworth, Gyro Gearloose, Gizmoduck, Magica DeSpell, Gladstone Gander, Ma Beagle, and the Beagle Boys.

DuckTales premieres on Disney XD Summer 2017. In case you need more ducks and tales in your life before then, why not watch our version of the classic DuckTales theme song starring real ducks? You'll thank us.
