Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers is an American direct-to-video animated family comedy film adaptation of the novel The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas, père. As the title suggests, it features Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy as the three musketeers. This film was directed by Donovan Cook, produced by Walt Disney Pictures and DisneyToon Studios, and released directly to VHS and DVD on August 17, 2004, by Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, and was later re-released on Blu-ray Disc on August 12, 2014, coinciding with the film's 10th anniversary.
The film was animated by Toon City Animation in Manila, Philippines and Walt Disney Animation Australia.
The story begins with Troubadour, a French speaking turtle who loves songs tries to remind the narrator of a show that he promised to Troubadour that one of his songs will be used in the show. But the narrator walks away from him, breaking his promise. He does not look where he is going and accidentally falls through a hole just as the show is about to begin. Consequently, troubadour is ushered to tell the audience the story at the very last minute. He chooses the story of the three musketeers.
Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and Mickey's dog Pluto are street urchins, who, while being robbed by masked bandits (played by the Beagle Boys) are saved by the Royal Musketeers, Athos, Aramis, Porthos and D'Artagnan. Mickey is gifted one of their hats, inspiring them to follow their example and become a musketeer; however, in the present day, he, Donald and Goofy are janitors for the musketeers' base. They are also told by Captain Pete, captain of the musketeers, that they can not become musketeers because Donald is a "coward" (who turns into a chicken every time he is frightened), Goofy a "doofus" and Mickey "just too small", leaving the three downhearted.
