🪸 WELCOME TO THE MERMAID THRONE… SEABROOK’S ABOUT TO GET WET AND WILD 🪸

The surface was just the beginning. Now the depths are calling—and they’re not asking nicely.

Addison’s moonstone pulses like never before. Zed’s fighting waves instead of zombies. A throne rises from the abyss, crowned in pearls and guarded by sirens who sing songs of conquest.

One crown to rule them all. One prophecy to drown the peace. One mermaid queen ready to claim what’s hers—starting with Seabrook.

Is Addison destined for the throne… or sacrifice? Will the monsters unite against the tide, or will some switch sides for a taste of the deep?

This brand-new “official” trailer just surfaced and the fandom is drowning in theories: Throne room betrayal? Underwater Kingdom Cup? Addison as queen?!

Dive in if you can handle the pressure… but once you sit on that throne, the surface world might never look the same. 🌊👑🧜‍♀️

The Zombies franchise is making waves again, thanks to a brand-new viral “official trailer” for Zombies 5 (2027) titled “Welcome to the Mermaid Throne.” Fresh uploads on YouTube from channels like PrimeFlix TV (and cross-posts on Facebook) have racked up quick views by plunging viewers into an underwater royal drama: glowing thrones emerging from the ocean floor, pearl-adorned mermaid rulers, hypnotic siren anthems, and teases of Seabrook’s crew facing a submerged takeover. The tagline “Welcome to the Mermaid Throne” hints at ascension, power grabs, and high-seas stakes—perhaps Addison stepping into a royal role or a new mermaid faction demanding tribute from the surface.

But hold the flippers: as of January 16, 2026, Disney has dropped zero official word on Zombies 5—no greenlight, no teaser, no release date, and certainly no confirmation of mermaids or a throne-centered plot. The videos are fan-made masterpieces of editing: stitching Zombies 4 footage with CGI ocean effects, fan art, and voiceover flair to keep the hype alive post-Dawn of the Vampires.

The Zombies series has been a reliable Disney Channel/Disney+ performer since 2018, blending monster-inclusive musicals with feel-good messages for families. It started with zombies and cheerleaders bridging divides in Seabrook, then added werewolves, aliens, and—most recently—vampires and daywalkers in Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires (July 2025 premiere). That installment drew 9.3 million global views in its first 10 days on Disney+, per Deadline reports, plus massive soundtrack engagement and social buzz. The film’s portal cliffhanger left fans hungry for what’s next, with “Is there going to be a Zombies 5?” spiking as a top search on premiere day.

Stars Milo Manheim (Zed) and Meg Donnelly (Addison), now executive producers, have fueled speculation. In July 2025 interviews, Manheim described Zombies 4 as “the start of another trilogy,” while both expressed eagerness for more adventures. Donnelly highlighted the franchise’s positive impact and growth potential. Director Paul Hoen and the core team could return if a sequel materializes.

Fan theories zero in on mermaids as the logical next monster group—drawing from ocean portals in Zombies 4 and the series’ pattern of expanding the supernatural roster. “Welcome to the Mermaid Throne” trailers lean into royal intrigue: underwater kingdoms with strict hierarchies, diplomatic clashes, and perhaps Addison’s alien-moonstone heritage linking her to aquatic destiny. Speculation includes throne-room betrayals, a “Kingdom Cup” underwater edition, or sirens using songs to disrupt Z-bands and surface alliances.

Production logistics make a 2027 release plausible but unconfirmed. Prior films took about a year from filming to premiere; if Zombies 5 kicked off development post-Zombies 4 success, spring/summer 2026 shooting could target late 2027. No casting beyond potential returns (Manheim, Donnelly, Chandler Kinney, Pearce Joza) has surfaced, though new mermaid leads would fit the refresh formula.

These fan trailers thrive on the wait. Similar hype reels preceded Zombies 4‘s announcement, often from the same creators using recycled assets and speculation to sustain momentum. Comments sections buzz with excitement (“Addison as mermaid queen would be iconic!”) and calls for realism (“Cool edit, but where’s the real trailer?”). The organic demand benefits Disney—no marketing spend needed to keep the conversation flowing.

The franchise’s staying power lies in its mix: catchy songs, diverse monster rep, dance numbers, and themes of unity amid differences. Zombies 4 proved the formula still works, even with legacy characters aging into producer roles and new faces like Freya Skye and Malachi Barton adding fresh energy. A mermaid entry could introduce water-based choreography, oceanic lore, and deeper exploration of “acceptance” when the “other” comes from below.

For now, all four films stream on Disney+, with Zombies 4 leading the charge. Official channels tease nothing beyond general engagement—no thrones, no mermaids. But the fan-made “Welcome to the Mermaid Throne” keeps the tide rising, showing how invested the audience remains.

If Disney does dive into Zombies 5, expect more unity-building chaos, perhaps with underwater twists that challenge Seabrook’s hard-won peace. Until then, these trailers remind us: in the Zombies world, every new monster brings new waves—and fans are ready to ride them.
