HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO? FREEFORM'S FEBRUARY FUNDAY HAS YOU COVERED WITH THE WEEKEND-LONG PROGRAMMING EVENT AIRING FEBRUARY 18 AND 19

This Month's 'Funday' Includes the Freeform premiere of Disney's 'Big Hero 6'

Are you holding out for a hero? Wait no more. Freeform's Funday weekend features a horde of heroes from beloved Disney movies, including the premiere of Disney's "Big Hero 6," starting SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18 and continuing through SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 19.

The highlights are:

Saturday, February 18

(7:00 - 9:00 a.m. EST) NANNY McPHEE In this dark and witty fable, Nanny McPhee (Emma Thompson) enters the household of the recently widowed Mr. Brown (Colin Firth) and attempts to tame his seven exceedingly ill-behaved children. The children have managed to drive away 17 previous nannies and are certain they will have no trouble with this one. But as Nanny McPhee takes control, they begin to notice that their vile behavior now leads swiftly and magically to rather startling consequences.

(9:00 - 11:00 a.m. EST) BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA Chloe, a diamond-clad Beverly Hills Chihuahua, enjoys her luxurious lifestyle so much she hardly notices Papi, a hilarious Chihuahua who happens to be crazy for her. But when the most pampered pooch gets lost in Mexico with only a streetwise German Shepherd to help her find her way home, Papi heads south of the border - joining forces with a motley crew: three dogs, two humans, a sly rat and a nervous iguana - to rescue his true love.

(11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. EST) DISNEY'S TARZAN This Academy Award(R)-winning adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' story begins deep within the jungle when baby Tarzan (Tony Goldwyn) is adopted by a family of gorillas. Even though he is shunned as a "hairless wonder" by their leader, Tarzan is accepted by the gorillas and raised as one of their own. Together with his wisecracking ape buddy Terk (Rosie O'Donnell) and neurotic elephant pal Tantor (Wayne Knight), Tarzan learns how to swing through the trees and survive in the animal kingdom. His two worlds collide with the arrival of humans, forcing Tarzan to choose between a "civilized" life with beautiful Jane (Minnie Driver) and the life he knows and loves with his gorilla family. Disney's "Tarzan" repeats on Sunday, February 19, at 10:00 a.m. EST.

(1:00 - 3:40 p.m. EST) DISNEY·PIXAR'S CARS Lightening McQueen (Owen Wilson) is a cocky, rookie race car. Speeding on his way to a big race, he crashes into Radiator Springs, destroying lots of the inhabitants' belongings. In order to make up for what he did, the roadster is sentenced to community service. Though he will do anything to get away from the work, McQueen must learn to respect and bond with the Radiator Springs residents in order to get out of the town and back on the racetracks. Paul Newman, Bonnie Hunt, Larry the Cable Guy, Cheech Marin, Tony Shaloub, John Ratzenberg and Micheal Keaton also lend their voices to this popular Pixar movie.

(3:40 - 6:10 p.m. EST) DISNEY·PIXAR'S CARS 2 Star race car Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) and the incomparable tow truck Mater (Larry the Cable Guy) take their friendship on the road from Radiator Springs to exciting new places when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world's fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage! Disney·Pixar's "Cars 2" repeats on Sunday, February 19, at 2:40 p.m. EST.

(6:10 - 8:20 p.m. EST) DISNEY'S ALADDIN In the heart of an enchanted city, a commoner named Aladdin (Scott Weinger) and his mischievous monkey Abu (Frank Welker) battle to save the free-spirited Princess Jasmine (Linda Larkin) with help from their friend, a blue genie (Robin Williams).

It's up to his worrisome father Marlin (Albert Brooks) and his friendly, but forgetful, regal blue tang fish friend Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) to bring Nemo home - meeting vegetarian sharks, surfer dude turtles, hypnotic jellyfish, hungry seagulls and more along the way. Disney·Pixar's "Finding Nemo" repeats on Sunday, February 19, at 9:30 p.m. EST.
