Episode 101: Tad Stones

André Myette Season 5 Episode 101

The man responsible for a big part of André and many other people's childhoods is our next guest. The creator of legendary Disney property Darkwing Duck!

Tad Stones is an American animator, screenwriter, producer, director, and storyboard artist who is best known for his work for The Walt Disney Company, where he worked from 1974 to 2003. His most notable credits for Disney include creating, writing, and producing the animated series Darkwing Duck, as well as producing Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, Adventures of the Gummi Bears, Aladdin, and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. 

Tad lets us in on how Darkwing Duck evolved from a James Bond parody, the impressive work done of the Aladdin sequel films, working on Hellboy and why it's important to let a revival series spread their wings and be unique from their original premises!
