Weā€™ve finally got it. Itā€™s not exactly easy being in a program for super-smart kids. There are, however, a lot of perks. Viewers learn that firsthand thanks to the Disney Channel series, A.N.T. Farm, which takes viewers inside the halls of high school. Now, this series is officially making the switch to Disneyā€™s streaming platform, titled Disney+.

ā€œA.N.T Farm is officially coming to Disney+,ā€ China Anne McClain shared in an Instagram video with Jake Short, which was met with over 40,000 likes in just a few days. A number of followers shared their excitement in the comments section. That includes some A.N.T. Farm cast members.

ā€œThat guy looks like he needs a shave and a haircut,ā€ Jake Short joked in the comments section. Every episode of this Disney Channel original series will debut on Disneyā€™s streaming platform on June 26.Ā

ā€˜A.N.T. Farmā€™ was originally a Disney Channel original series

Originally released during 2011, this Disney Channel original series features members in one schoolā€™s ā€œAdvanced Natural Talentsā€ program, also known as the A.N.T. Farm. One of those students was teenager Chyna Parks, portrayed by Descendants 2ā€™s China Anne McClain. Other actors in the series include Jake Short.

According to Pirates and Princesses, ā€œthe show had 62 episodes, and three special episodes, over 3 seasons,ā€ which makes it comparable to Disney Channel original seriesā€™ including Sonny With a Chance and Liv and Maddie. All three seasons will be added to Disneyā€™s streaming platform during June.Ā

This A.N.T. Farm-related announcement comes hot off the heels of the Artemis Fowl trailer, an original movie that will also be available on Disneyā€™s streaming platform. Other movies featuring China Anne McClain are already available for binge-watching. That includes Descendants 2 and Descendants 3, where the actress portrayed Ursulaā€™s daughter, named Uma.Ā 

China Anne McClain also voiced the same character in the animated series, Wicked World, which ran from 2015-2017. Since then, that series made the switch to Disneyā€™s streaming platform, as did a number of Disney Channel classics.
