Disney+ has entered the battle of digital platforms with force . Driven by highly demanded content such as Marvel, Pixar or Star Wars movies and series, the mouse company has managed to rub shoulders in a few months with other entertainment giants such as Netflix, Prime Video or HBO.
This Friday, November 12, the streaming platform celebrates its second anniversary in a big way with Disney + Day, an event full of premieres and that promises juicy previews of what is to come. Movies like Jungle Cruise, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings or Home Alone at Last arrive on the video-on-demand service, which will also incorporate a new enhanced IMAX modefor more than a dozen films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (UCM).
Disney + Day can be seen live and exclusively from 3:00 p.m. through the Disney + application at no additional cost for users of the platform, which has also launched a monthly subscription offer for 1.99 euros until the next 14 of November.
Apart from the content that reaches the streaming service, one of the great attractions of this celebration is in the previews of upcoming productions that will land on the platform. Thus, in addition to new images of the imminent Hawkeye series (November 24), Disney + Day could show a first look at Ms. Marvel, She Hulk and Moon Knight, the UCM series that are to come.
And perhaps advances on other film projects such as Blade, Spider-man No Way Home (as it sounds like it won’t be left)… we will clear up any doubts starting at 5:45 p.m., Marvel panel time at Disney+ Day. New glimpses into the Star Wars universe
would also be welcome . A few days ago the company showed the first preview of The Boba Fett book and it could be Andor’s turn, the series about the character that Diego Luna played in Rogue One, or Obi-Wan Kenobi, in the return of Ewan McGregor to the role Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader’s mentor. Regarding Pixar, we could learn more about Lightyear, the long-awaited Toy Story prequel that recently revealed its first trailer. Confirmed premieres at Disney+ DayFILMS
