A new “Ice Age” movie is on the way, but this one’s heading directly to streaming.
Disney+ unveiled the official trailer for “The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild” on Tuesday, a new film in the “Ice Age” franchise that puts Simon Pegg’s one-eyed weasel Buck front and center. Eager for a little independence, possum brothers Crash and Eddie set out to find a place of their own but soon find themselves trapped beneath the ice in a massive cave inhabited by dinosaurs.

In 1991, Nickelodeon premiered its first three original cartoons Rugrats, Doug and The Ren & Stimpy Show. The initial ingenuity of Nicktoons was that the shows were creator-driven in comparison to the majority of '80s cartoons that were produced by toy companies to sell their merchandise. Over thirty years later, the studio has released a plethora of classics (including the three mentioned above) such as Hey Arnold! (1996), The Angry Beavers (1997) and As Told By Ginger (2000).
