The holiday season is about to get a little wild. Dreamworks has just released the teaser for an upcoming holiday special starring the young versions of the hit 2005 film Madagascar from the animated series Madagascar: A Little Wild. The teaser for Holiday Goose Chase, as well as the synopsis, is available below.
The synopsis reads, “During holiday time in the habitat, Melman is determined to add one more sticker to his yearly “Nice” list; when he meets a gander who’s been separated from his family, Melman and the gang embark on a wild goose chase around the city.
Madagascar premiered in 2005 and followed the adventures of Alex the lion (voiced by Ben Stiller), Marty the zebra (voiced by Chris Rock), Melman the giraffe (David Schwimmer) and Gloria the hippo (voiced by Jada Pinkett Smith). The film follows the animals as they get into a mix up that yanks them out of their cozy lives in Central Park Zoo and stranded on the titular Island of Madagascar, which is inhabited by party obsessed lemurs ruled by King Julian (voiced by Sacha Baron Cohen). The film was received with mixed but overall favorable reviews. This was enough to land it two sequels.
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa was about the animals getting off of Madagascar and learning of Alex’s lost family. This was followed up with Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted, in which the animals try to catch a ride with a traveling circus that is on route to New York, but they’re tailed by an animal control officer. There was also a spinoff film starring the popular spy obsessed penguin characters known as The Penguins of Madagascar, as well as their own series on Nickelodeon titled Penguins of Madagascar. The character known as King Julien the lemur also got his own spinoff series in the Netflix original All Hail King Julien.
Madagascar: A Little Wild is a prequel to Madagascar and stars everyone as children. Alex the lion is a rambunctious cub (voiced by Tucker Chandler); Marty the zebra is a rule-following foal (voiced by Amir O’Neil); Melman the giraffe is an imaginative calf (voiced by Luke Low); and Gloria is a performance loving hippo calf (voiced by Shaylin Becton). As you’d imagine, the series revolves around the kids and their adventures growing up in Central Park Zoo, whether it’s finding a zoo guest’s lost teddy bear or babysitting hedgehog pups. The show premiered in the streaming services Hulu and Peacock on September 7th, 2020.
Since its premiere, the show has gone on for four seasons so far with a fifth season coming very soon. The upcoming episodes also feature guest stars WNBA Champion Candace Parker as “Sadie Swish” and Megan Hilty as “Ziggy” & “Waffles”. The trailer for the upcoming season is available below.
Fans of these characters young and old are sure to have a roaring time following the continuing adventures of Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria. Season 5 of Madagascar: A Little Wild is premiering November 11th and Holiday Goose Chase is premiering on November 26th for streaming on Hulu and Peacock.
