About Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers
"Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers" is a hybrid live-action/CG animated action-comedy movie debuted in 2022. Revisiting the iconic small screen duo from the Disney Afternoon television era, Chip and Dale, the film is set in modern-day Los Angeles where these characters live among cartoons and humans. It's been 30 years since the cancelation of their successful television series, and both Chip and Dale have settled into vastly different lives.
On one hand, Chip, voiced by John Mulaney, has relinquished his adventurous past for a more serene life in the suburbs, working as an insurance salesman. On the contrary, Dale, brought to life by Andy Samberg, has undertaken a CGI surgery in a seemingly desperate attempt to cling on to his past heyday, working the nostalgia convention circuit.
However, the mysterious disappearance of a former castmate stirs them back into action, prompting them to rekindle their lost camaraderie and take on their Rescue Rangers detective personas once again to embark on a rescue mission for their friend.
