Disney India to air ‘Tarzan’ & ‘Sky High’ feature films on 22 July
MUMBAI: The weekends are for movies! As children‘s channels gear up for the weekends with their own movie strategy, Disney in India has lined up two films to close the week.
Jetix will showcase the animated feature film Tarzan on 22 July at 6 pm. While sister channel Disney Channel, which is targeted at an older age demographic, will air Sky High at 7 pm.
Tarzan is a funny tale of an orphaned infant raised by a family of gorillas whose life changes forever when he finally meets other humans.
Sky High tells the story of Will Stronghold who is the son of the world‘s most legendary super heroes, and people expect him to live up to the family name.
The problem is that he has no superpowers of his own. Now he must somehow survive his freshman year while dealing with an overbearing gym coach, a bully with super speed and a dangerous rebel with a grudge (and the ability to shoot fire from his hands) – not to mention the usual angst, parental expectations and girl problems that accompany teenage life.
