Disney’s newest show is about a retired 15-year-old Esports champion

Disney is about to premiere a new live-action show that revolves around a 15-year-old retired Esports player called the Gamer’s Guide to Pretty Much Everything.

Cameron Boyce (above) is set to star as Conor, a 15-year-old “video game phenom” who heads back to high school “after a thumb injury sidelines him from the glamorous pro gaming circuit,” said Disney. The shows is set to debut on the Disney XD network.

“With the popularity of video games and electronic sports, we’re thrilled to give our audience a new series that spotlights one of their biggest passions and features fan-favorite star Cameron Boyce,” said Adam Bonnett, executive vice president of original programming for Disney Channels Worldwide. “We are bringing the video game universe to life and giving our popular multi-camera series a fresh, new twist by integrating gaming visual effects into each episode.”

Gamer’s Guide to Pretty Much Everything should begin airing this winter.
