These titles will join previously announced scripted originals including “The Mandalorian,” the world’s first scripted live-action Star Wars series, the exclusive new season of “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series,” the untitled Cassian Andor series starring Diego Luna and Alan Tudyk, the Marvel Studios series “Loki” starring Tom Hiddleston, “Monsters at Work,” “Diary of a Female President,” and live-action films “Lady and the Tramp,” “Noelle,” “Togo,” Timmy Failure” and “Stargirl.” Nonfiction series also announced earlier this week include “Be Our Chef,” “Cinema Relics: Iconic Art of the Movies (wt),” “Earthkeepers (wt),” “Encore!,” the untitled Walt Disney Imagineering documentary series, “Marvel’s 616,” “Marvel’s Hero Project,” “(Re)Connect,” “Rogue Trip,” and “Shop Class (wt).”
In total Disney+ will offer over 7,500 television episodes and 500 films. All 30 seasons of 'The Simpsons' will be available on day one and in the first year users will have access to family friendly titles from Fox like “The Sound of Music,” “The Princess Bride,” and “Malcolm in the Middle” .
Disney says their product experience will make it easy to navigate, discover, and watch your favorite programming. There will be dedicated pages for Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic. Additionally, subscribers will have the ability to create custom profiles with each receiving personalized experiences curated to their unique tastes based on past behaviors and preferred content.
As you'd expect, Disney+ will be available on a wide range of mobile and connected TV devices, including gaming consoles, streaming media players, and smart TVs, and will adjust to the best possible high definition viewing experience based on a subscriber’s available bandwidth, with support for up to 4K HDR video playback. Fans will also have access to an 'unprecedented amount' of content for offline viewing.
The service will expand globally following its U.S. debut with plans to be in nearly all major regions of the world within the next two years. The U.S. subscription price is $6.99/month or $69.99/year which works out to about $5.83/month.
