The new season will also see the return of Perry the Platypus, the iconic animated pet who aims to thwart Dr. Doofenshmirtz's plans to take over the tristate area.
Some of the series' popular voices are returning for the new season. Here's everything to know.

The fifth season of "Phineas and Ferb" will kick off with two premiere episodes on Thursday, June 5, at 8 p.m. ET on Disney Channel and Disney XD.
The first episode will be available the same day on Disney Channel YouTube.

Early 2000s Disney Channel fans will surely feel a bit of nostalgia tuning into the latest season of "Phineas and Ferb," which will mark Ashley Tisdale's return to the network.
"Who knew yelling 'MOOOOM' would be a career highlight?" Tisdale wrote about her role as outspoken older sister Candace on Instagram. "20 years later and I'm still pinching myself. So grateful to be part of something this special - thank you to the fans who brought it back, kept it alive, and made it iconic."
In addition to Tisdale, Alyson Stoner will also be returning to play Isabella Garcia-Shapiro.
The voices behind titular characters Phineas and Ferb — Vincent Martella and David Errigo Jr, respectively — are also back for the new season.
Caroline Rhea is once again voicing Linda Flynn-Fletcher, and Dee Bradley Baker will play Perry the Platypus.

‘Stranger Things' star Dacre Montgomery shares why he left Hollywood just as his stardom began
Stranger things have happened. Horror hunk Dacre Montgomery has shared why he stepped back from the limelight after finding stardom in Netflix's mega-hit show 'Stranger Things.' 'I think things have changed,' Montgomery said in an interview with The Australian. 'Traditional Hollywood stars existed because there was mystery… Social media has done away with that. That's a large part of why I dropped off the map for the last five years.' 4 Dacre Montgomery stepped back from Hollywood after acting in 'Stranger Things.' Courtesy Netflix The Australian-born actor, who rose to fame playing Billy Hargrove on the 12-time Emmy Award-winning series, wanted to navigate Tinseltown on his terms. 'I'm not trying to compete with anyone else, I'm living my truth — and hopefully being able to pay the rent while I'm doing it,' Montgomery said. Montgomery joined 'Stranger Things' during the show's second season and his character was killed off at the end of the third season, which aired in July 2019. 'I've given a piece of myself to every role I've played and that's largely why I've taken time off,' Dacre added. Montgomery has acted in nearly a dozen projects over the past decade. 4 Montgomery appeared in season 2 and 3 of Netflix's hit horror show. Courtesy Netflix 4 Montgomery attended the 'Went Up the Hill' premiere at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival. Getty Images His most notable roles include playing Steve Binder in the 2022's 'Elvis' starring Austin Butler and the Red Ranger in the 2017 'Power Rangers' film. 'Lately, there's been a lot of personal reflection about what I want in my career,' Montgomery added to the Australian. 'I'm trying to gain a bit more control over where and what I'm working on.' The 30-year-old is focused on picking projects that could leave a lasting 'impact' with viewers, according to his recent interview with People Magazine. 4 Montgomery is planning to make his directorial debut with the film 'The Engagement Party.' Penske Media via Getty Images He hoped his new indie thriller, 'Went Up the Hill,' might accomplish his vision of creating work with a long-term presence with some audiences. 'The connective tissue between all the films I'm trying to do at the moment is films that have something really important to say, and 'Went Up the Hill' is divisive,' Montgomery told People. 'It's not a movie that everyone will connect to, but the people that do connect to it, I hope, will find catharsis.' Montgomery added, 'And that's why you make these movies, right? Because it only has to impact one person in the right way to work. And that's really what I'm really trying to mine in my career, is being a part of projects like that.'
