Disney+ Day is more than just a celebration of the second anniversary of the launch of the Mouse House’s streaming platform. It is also a day where the studio announces some of their upcoming titles from film and TV that will be released exclusively on that service. Basically, it’s a way to get new subscribers while also exciting its existing ones. As such, they announced a flurry of titles from everything under their umbrella.
From Disney and their live-action operations to Pixar, Marvel, and more. And because it’s been a big day, we decided to break it all down for you in accordance to the respective studios, so that it would be easier to follow. Plus, if you are a fan one one thing but not the other, it’s easier to choose. But really, we are just a fan of it all in general.
So we’ll kick things off with some of the log lines and descriptions, plus tweets from what Disney has to offer from their upcoming live-action slate from films like Cheaper by the Dozen, starring Gabrielle Union and Zach Braff; the live-action/CG hybrid Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, which will be a continuation of the series and not a reboot; the long awaited Disenchanted starring Amy Adams; and, of course, Hocus Pocus 2.
