Jeff Kinney’s ‘Diary of a WimpyKid: Rodrick Rules’ to stream on Disney Plus in December

Disney Plus revealed that the original movie Diary of a WimpyKid: Rodrick Rules is set to premier on 2 December on Disney+. They debuted the trailer for the all-new animated movie based on the second book in Jeff Kinney’s wildly popular book series. The original song from the film, Can You Smell Us Now, written and produced by Jon Levine, with lyrics by Kinney, and performed by Jimmy Tatro, was also released.

The riotous antics of angst-ridden, disaster-prone middle school student Greg Heffley (voiced by Brady Noon) continue in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules, focusing this time around on his complicated relationship with older brother, Rodrick (voiced by Hunter Dillon). A spikey-haired high school student, Rodrick is lazy and undisciplined and spends way too much time practicing with his rock band, Löded Diper. While he loves to torment Greg, Rodrick ultimately has a deep affection for his younger brother.
