Kingdom Keepers: Disney in Shadow
by Timie-Lemmens | created - 14 May 2020 | updated - 27 Mar 2022 | PublicMy castlist for a movie adaptation of the third Kingdom Keepers book.
Note 1: I won't be casting the kids as the suggested actors could be too old by the time these movies get made.
Note 2: I will remove any reference to a Mickey cast member, as I'm considering animated Mickey and cast member Mickey to be the same, as it might get confusing to younger people if they were two different people.
