Marvel’s “Shang-Chi” will premiere Nov. 12 on Disney Plus, as part of Disney’s celebration of the streamer’s two-year anniversary.
“Shang-Chi and the Legend of The Ten Rings” from Marvel Studios will hit Disney Plus on Nov.12 — along with a slew of other new content — as part of a celebration of the two-year anniversary of the streamer’s launch. The first Disney Plus Day marks the date the streaming service first bowed in 2019 in the U.S., Canada and the Netherlands. Additional content set to debut Nov.12 on Disney Plus worldwide includes film “Jungle Cruise,” starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, available to all subscribers (after being available under its $30 early-access pricing); the premiere of Disney Plus original movie reboot “Home Sweet Home Alone,” with Ellie Kemper, Rob Delaney and Kenan Thompson; a new original series of shorts from Walt Disney Animation Studios called “Olaf Presents,” featuring Frozen’s beloved snowman retelling several classic Disney tales; and animated short film “Ciao Alberto” from Pixar, featuring characters from “Luca.” The Disney Plus Day announcement comes the same day that CEO Bob Chapek said streaming subscriber growth for the September 2021 quarter will be slower than expected, which he blamed in part COVID-related production delays.
