‘Dancing with the Stars’ showrunner says Elvis Presley night isn’t all fans can look forward to this season
Conrad Green says Elvis Night is not all that fans can expect from this exciting new season of ballroom competition.
On Oct. 24, viewers can look forward to a theme night featuring the music of Michael Buble. Green also told Entertainment Weekly that the fan-favorite Disney Night is returning, but with a twist.
“They will be doing a Disney+ night, not Disney. Which is great because it means you’ve got this incredible catalog to look at,” he explained. “Everything from Marvel to Disney Pixar, all of the animated films, all of their live-action films. There’s such a range.”
Dancing with the Stars airs on Disney+ and is hosted by Tyra Banks and Alfonso Ribeiro. Week 2, featuring the music of Elvis Presley, streams Monday, Sept. 26.
