Monsters Inc. remains a fan-favourite for Disney fans. The 2001 classic introduced us to the unforgettable duo of Mike and James P. Sullivan and now, after nearly two decades, we finally get to catch up with them in the upcoming Disney Plus series Monsters At Work.

Set six months after the original Monsters Inc. movie, the show centers on the power plant's ability to now harvest the laughter of children in order to fuel Monstropolis City and how one talented mechanic longs to work on the Laugh Floor alongside our beloved Mike and Sulley.

The series was initially supposed to hit the streaming service in 2020 but the studio opted to hold it until 2021 so that it would coincide with the 20th anniversary of the original film, allowing us all to enjoy the long-awaited continuation of the story by celebrating the legacy of its past at the same time.

If it's anything like the original (or the Monsters University prequel for that matter), we're in for a timeless treat.
