DISNEY XD SERIES FAVORITES STAR IN COMEDIC ORIGINAL MOVIE
“PANTS ON FIRE,” PREMIERING SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9 ON DISNEY XD

Popular Disney sitcom star Bradley Steven Perry (“Mighty Med,” “Good Luck Charlie”), Joshua J. Ballard (“Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days”) and Disney XD-favorite Tyrel Jackson Williams (“Lab Rats”) star in the comedic adventure “Pants on Fire,” an original movie premiering SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9 on Disney XD in the U.S. (7:00 p.m., ET/PT) and Canada (7:00 p.m., ET/4:00 p.m., PT).

Filmed in Vancouver, Canada, the funny, fantastical story introduces 15-year-old Jack Parker as all the lies he’s ever told suddenly become real – including a possessive girlfriend, a roving duo of alien body-snatchers, and Mikey, the made-up friend that Jack claims to tutor. Now it’s up to Jack and his buddy Ryan to figure out who or what is behind this crazy situation, all while chasing down a plush purple hippo who may hold the key to unlocking this mind-boggler.

Starring are Bradley Steven Perry as Jack Parker, Joshua J. Ballard as Ryan, Tyrel Jackson Williams as Mikey, Brittney Wilson as Jack’s sister Hannah, Taylor Russell as Jack’s school crush and Nicholas Coombe as Jack’s friend Eric.

“Pants on Fire” is directed by Jon Rosenbaum (“Mighty Med,” “Austin & Ally”), from a script written by Alex Cramer, and produced by Kim Arnott (“Radio Rebel,” “The Haunting Hour”), who also serves as an Executive Producer. MarVista Entertainment’s CEO, Fernando Szew (“Fir Crazy,” “Seattle Superstorm”), and EVP Production and Development, Robyn Snyder (“16 Wishes,” “House of Versace”), also serve as Executive Producers.
