I never watched the trailer, or anything like that, so I don’t know who the kid is.
There are some mature things that have kids in them, where the kids aren’t cringy little snot-eaters, like Killzone: Mercebary, for example, there’s a kid maybe around half way through the game called “Justice”, and he actually understands how dire the situation is, doesn’t crack jokes, and even helps you sometimes, hiding in areas where other enemies can see him, then letting you know enemy locations, patrols, and whatnot. And when it’s a large firefight, he’ll hide until your character “tells” (silent protagonist) him that it’s safe for him to come out. Plus he’s actually important to plot, as his DNA has a deadly, but inactive mega-virus inside it, so people on both sides on the greyscale war want him and the trigger to use on the other side to kill off billions, and the player character, Justice, the scientist who was forced to work on Justice, and an arms dealer (and a few others who end up dying while helping you) are the only ones who realize the whole situation is a huge mess.
However, knowing Disney, the kid in the show will be a cringy, snot-eating, smug joke maker designed to lure in more kid viewers.
When I was a kid, I didn’t want to see a show, movie, or cartoon, if it had a cringy, snot-eating, smug kid in it, when the overall thing was meant to be serious.
