SYNOPSIS
Generating ten times more power than screams, laughter is still the chosen power generator for Monstropolis. The show will pick up six months after the completion of Monsters, Inc. D23 notes, "We’ll follow a new monster, Tylor Tuskmon (voiced by Superstore’s Ben Feldman), an enthusiastic and talented mechanic on the Monsters, Inc. Facilities Team (MIFT) who dreams of following in the footsteps of his idols—Mike and Sulley—and making his way up to the factory Laugh Floor as a Jokester."
