Disney+ Finally Brings Back Classic Movie

Summer is in full swing, which means many folks are out there basking in the sun, drinking a refreshing beverage, and enjoying some fun. For many, that might include America’s pastime: baseball. In fact, the MLB All-Star Game took place last night, and the American League took down the National League, 5 to 3. If you’re in the mood for some fictional baseball, a beloved classic just returned to Disney+ after about a year. Angels in the Outfield, the 1994 family classic starring Danny Glover and Christopher Lloyd, is now available again on the streaming site. 

Angels in the Outfield is a fantasy film that follows a young boy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who prays the California Angels will win the pennant, believing that will help him have a family again after his mother passes away and his father neglects him. His prayers are answered when a group of literal angels step in and help the team become winners. The movie also stars Tony Danza, Adrien Brody, Matthew McConaughey, and Neal McDonough.
