Marvel, Disney Pixar, and The Bachelor – Oh My!

You guys!! I’m beyond thrilled to share that I’m headed back to LA for another amazing press trip! This time I’ll be covering Doctor Strange from Marvel Studios, Disney Pixar’s Finding Dory which will be releasing on Blu-ray, and ABC Network’s Ben & Lauren: Happily Ever After!

I’m no stranger to these amazing Disney-filled adventures. Past events I’ve attended include Planes, Million Dollar Arm, Big Hero 6, Ant-Man, The Good Dinosaur, and Captain America: Civil War!

As a Marvel-loving family, I’m pumped to be covering Doctor Strange. I have to admit though – this is one character I’m not too familiar with, so I’ll be doing my homework! Are there any Doctor Strange fans out there that want to share some tips? 🙂

More on Doctor Strange:

Marvel’s Doctor Strange stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Rachel McAdams, and that means I may possibly be interviewing both actors! More details on who exactly we’ll be interviewing coming soon. Here’s a bit more about the film, releasing in theaters everywhere November 4th:

Marvel Studios’ “Doctor Strange” follows the story of world-famous neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange who, in his quest for healing after a horrific car accident, discovers powerful magic in a mysterious place known as Kamar-Taj—the front line of a battle against unseen dark forces bent on destroying our reality.

Check out the film trailer below:

Finding Dory was a smash hit for Disney Pixar, and will soon be releasing on Digital HD (on 10/25) and Blu-ray (on 11/15). This was one of our family’s favorite movies of 2016, so I’m looking forward to covering this event! By the way, you can make your kiddos this adorable sea creature themed lunch inspired by Finding Dory!

About Disney Pixar Finding Dory:

Disney Pixar’s “Finding Dory” welcomes back to the big screen everyone’s favorite forgetful blue tang Dory (voice of Ellen DeGeneres), who’s living happily in the reef with Nemo (voice of Hayden Rolence) and Marlin (voice of Albert Brooks). When Dory suddenly remembers that she has a family out there who may be looking for her, the trio takes off on a life-changing adventure across the ocean to California’s prestigious Marine Life Institute, a rehabilitation center and aquarium. In an effort to find her mom (voice of Diane Keaton) and dad (voice of Eugene Levy), Dory enlists the help of three of the MLI’s most intriguing residents: Hank (voice of Ed O’Neill), a cantankerous octopus who frequently gives employees the slip; Bailey (voice of Ty Burrell), a beluga whale who is convinced his biological sonar skills are on the fritz; and Destiny (voice of Kaitlin Olson), a nearsighted whale shark. Deftly navigating the complex inner workings of the MLI, Dory and her friends discover the magic within their flaws, friendships and family.

Ben & Lauren: Happily Ever After

Where’re my “Bachelor” fans at? I am super excited to share that while in LA I’ll have the opportunity to meet Ben Higgins and his fiance Lauren Bushnell from season 20’s “The Bachelor.” They have a new reality series on Freeform called Ben & Lauren: Happily Ever After. It will premiere on 10/11 at 8/7c. The show will follow the happy couple as they prepare to walk down the aisle and begin their brand-new life together while navigating the real world after the splendor of The Bachelor’s exotic dates and fantasy suites has ended. I can’t wait!!!

Check out the series trailer here:

In addition to all three of these fabulous events, Disney Channel has invited our exclusive group of bloggers to an advanced screening of MECH-X4! Afterward we’ll chat with the cast and creators of the new show.

More about Mech-X4:

Ryan has the extraordinary ability to control technology with his mind. When his talent mysteriously awakens a giant 150-foot robot known as MECH-X4, Ryan recruits his two best friends and older brother to help him operate MECH-X4 to defend against monsters that suddenly begin to descend upon their city.

Benedict Cumberbatch, star of Marvel Studios’ upcoming film DOCTOR STRANGE, announced the launch of Marvel Studios: Hero Acts, a new charitable initiative focused on bringing help and hope to kids around the world. Check out that video here.
