Disney Channel has given a second-season order to its new animated fantasy-comedy The Owl House ahead of its series premiere.
The show, which is set to premiere at 8:45 p.m. ET on Friday, Jan. 10, follows Luz, a self-assured teenage girl who stumbles upon a portal to a magical realm where she befriends a rebellious witch, Eda, and a tiny warrior, King. Despite not having magical abilities, Luz pursues her dream of becoming a witch by serving as Eda’s apprentice at the Owl House and ultimately finds a new family in an unlikely setting.
Created and executive-produced by Dana Terrace (DuckTales), the series will be available to watch on Disney Channel and the DisneyNOW app.
