At the press conference celebrating Armorsaurs coming to the end of its first season, it was a pure victory lap! Cast and creatives looked back on the growth of these teen pilots and their bonded dinosaurs, teased where the story heads next, and confirmed a second season is happening. Production kicks off in April, which feels perfectly timed with momentum from the finale window. The team also unveiled the first wave of toys, turning screen-ready dinos into shelf-ready favorites. If you wanted a franchise moment, this was it.
Season 2 Is Already Teased
The room lit up when the cast leaned into the future. The confidence read like a promise, and it matched the show’s forward motion. Momentum matters in family adventure, and Armorsaurs has built a world that invites bigger arcs, deeper bonds, and new threats. The tease worked because it came from the people living inside those characters every day.
“Yeah, yeah for sure. And my bond is with my computer and I have a very good. And with that computer I can see into the future. And I know that we will be back for a season two.”
That cheeky “see into the future” line did more than get a laugh. It positioned Season 2 as an extension of character, not just content. When renewal news travels through in-world voice, fans feel invited. It signals continuity of tone, a returning ensemble, and the same mix of humor and heart that made Season 1 click.
The Heartbeat: Awe For Kids And Adults
The platform conversation mattered. Framing the series as a Disney+ global play set expectations for quality and reach. It also centered intention, because this team keeps talking about “heart” with specificity. That is the differentiator. Yes, dinosaurs and armor sell themselves. What travels worldwide is sincerity that lands for parents and kids at the same time.
“I grew up on Disney. Yeah, I, I watched all the shows, all the movies, all the originals. So it’s a bloody honor and honor to be on this platform. I think the platform is full of so much high quality content that it’s like we’re in such a good company, and I just feel grateful. The show, what do I hope they take away?”
“I hope I hope adults and children take away this childlike sense of awe. I think Kevin and Julie mentioned like, there’s actually a lot of heart in the show. And yes, there’s action and dinosaurs and excitement, but there’s there’s this like sincerity to the show as well. So I hope adults and children can both access all of that.”
That framing makes the appeal easy to understand. Awe is the on-ramp, but sincerity is the stickiness. Families need something that thrills without losing tenderness, and Armorsaurs is built around bonds between pilots, mentors, and their partner dinos. That balance helps the show live as weekly ritual, not just noise in the queue.
Teamwork And Courage Under Pressure
Teen heroes saving the world sounds big. The show treats it like responsibility, not cosplay. That perspective showed up again and again in how the actors talked about bravery. The message is simple and needed right now: you do not white-knuckle impossible moments alone. You lean on your people, feel scared, and step up anyway.
“Yeah, absolutely. I think just like real like the show gets crazy at times. It gets pretty scary. There’s a lot of pressure for these teenagers to save the world. And I think even through it all, learning how to step up, really, depending on your teammates and friends and your family and your bonds with people, I think that’s a really important for for someone to get that courage and strength to step up and be brave in that situation.”
“So I hope, I hope viewers can, you know, watch the show and take that into real life and really depend on each other to step up.”
That articulation is the series in miniature. Stakes are high, but the toolset is human. Courage shows up as collaboration, not lone-wolf swagger. It is a healthy model for young viewers and a credible backbone for action scenes that mean something when the dust settles.
Filming On A Virtual Stage That Felt Real
Craft talk matters when the show’s scale is this big. The team shot on a massive LED stage, so performers had to anchor eyelines and react to creatures that were not physically there. The way the director walked actors through size, presence, and sightlines helped sell the illusion. That is why the dinos feel like scene partners, not digital wallpaper.
“Yeah. You’re right. It was pretty surreal because it was a giant, you know, stage because all the backgrounds were virtual, too. So you guys would ask me, know what am I looking at? What do you think? And I’m saying, well, this is a velociraptor. Is, you know, a certain size, and your pteranodon is 30ft tall, right? It’s like you’re looking up here, and then his eyes are up here.”
“So again, so was like, there were, like, super troopers. It was amazing.”
Those specifics make the spectacle land. When actors lock in on scale and weight, VFX teams can integrate creatures that interact believably with the world. The result is action that reads as kinetic and grounded, even when the scene is a kid and a pteranodon staring each other down.
Rooted In Korea, Built For A Global Launch
Identity sat at the center of this celebration. The creatives spoke about filming in Korea with gratitude and pride, connecting personal heritage to a production designed for a worldwide audience. That combination of local texture and global reach gives Armorsaurs an extra gear. You feel the specificity, then you see the platform take it everywhere.
“But more than that, if I’m perfectly honest, like, I’m a great American and I grew up watching shows like this, and so, like, being in Korea was actually sort of a full circle moment. I know for you guys, you guys were doing karaoke and, doing all these things, but for me, becoming, born an American, but my ethnic origins is in Korea.”
“And so, my wife and I were working on the show, and we were able to bring our kids up with us. And so watching their experience, it was very, very unique for me, just from an identity standpoint. And so I think there’s something about this show that’s really special. And so being able to root that, in Korea and having the production out there and having the origins out there, it’s just been super, super meaningful.”
“And the fact that everybody here, it’s such an incredible experience to be free and, and the fact that, it was so fun to do all of those things out there is super meaningful to me. And I’m still riding that wave of the high of being involved in a production that was done in Korea, but it is a global production.”
“It’s just super exciting to think of it in that sense. And right now there’s a whole culture wave that’s going on. And so I’m just super grateful that we’re in a place where I don’t have to, you know, hide the food that I’m eating. But people are actively asking questions like, what did you guys eat while you’re out there?”
“That is absolutely incredible. So being able to have all of those experiences mixed in with also doing the show, I think is that comes across on the screen. And I’m really, really excited for people to get to see that. And again, it’s a global Disney Plus lunch, so that is a part of the the identity of the show is that it’s a global show.”
Those remarks map the show’s cultural engine. They turn production into story, and story into invitation. A global Disney+ launch lets the series carry that pride to new audiences, with the added resonance of cast members who lived the experience as artists and parents. That energy reads on screen.
One More Reveal: Toys Hit This Spring
Franchise status became official with plastic. The team announced a toy line that mirrors the series’ world, complete with armor-up features. This is where kids translate what they watch into play, and where characters become companions beyond the episode runtime.
“There’s some seriously amazing dinosaurs as well. And watching this amazing armored dinosaurs battle aliens wasn’t enough for you guys. Entertainment is launching a brand new Armor Stores toy line this March, featuring action figures and armored up dinosaurs with signature armor up play features and accessories. Inspired by the show. So please head on over to our product display area where, Greg Mitchell, VP of Brand Marketing at MGA entertainment, will give you a first look at the toys.”
That matters because toys extend mythology. Armor-up designs let kids restage triumphs, remix squads, and invent new missions. It is the fastest path from “we like this show” to “this is our world now,” which is exactly where Armorsaurs wants to live.
Production on Season 2 is slated to begin in April in South Korea. Season 1 heads to Disney+ on February 18 with a global launch, following its Disney XD run.
