BURBANK, Calif. (April 9, 2020) - Today Disney+ set a playdate with the Simpsons announcing the animated short film "Maggie Simpson in 'Playdate with Destiny'" will stream globally on the service beginning tomorrow, Friday, April 10.

The film begins on a day that seemed like just another day at the park for Maggie Simpson. But when Maggie faces playground peril, a heroic young baby whisks her from danger - and steals her heart. After a blissful first playdate, Maggie can't wait to see her new baby beau again the following day, but things don't go exactly as planned. Will fate (or Homer) get in her way?
