It sounds like Disney+ is going to be a step in the right direction honoring most of our childhoods.
Former star of The Proud Family, Tommy Davidson revealed some major news about content coming to Disney’s new streaming service, Disney+. Best known for his role as Oscar Proud, Davidson opened up about the possibility of The Proud Family being revived for Disney+. Davidson said, “I forgot to tell you that, The Proud Family is coming back. Proud Family’s coming back.”
Later, he added, “It’s on one of Disney’s streaming [services]. Yeah, Proud Family’s coming back. They told me not to tell you. New episodes.”

Unfortunately, representatives from Disney have yet to confirm Davidson’s statements. If The Proud Family were to return, it would join a long list of highly anticipated series coming to Disney’s streaming service. The original iteration of the series ran for 52 episodes between 2001-2005 on Disney Channel. Kyla Pratt voiced protagonist Penny Proud, a family-oriented teen who often butted heads with father Oscar and bullies The Gross Sisters when attempting to enjoy misadventures with friends Dijonay (Karen Malina White), Sticky (Orlando Brown), Zoey (Soleil Moon Frye) and “frenemy” LaCienega (Alisa Reyes).
Paula Jai Parker starred as Proud family matriarch Trudy alongside Jo Marie Payton as Henrietta “Suga Mama” Proud, the spunky poodle-owning grandmother with a crush on the Caesar Romero-inspired Papi (Alvaro Guttierez). Would you be here for a Proud Family return?
