Recently, Walt Disney revealed a lot of information regarding the long-awaited streaming service, Disney+, including details such as the expected price, release date and content it will offer.
Walt Disney’s upcoming streaming service, Disney+, has been in the works for quite some time now. The company first unveiled plans to create the service in August 2017, when Disney ended its deal with Netflix and decided to pull all its content from the platform by 2019. Subsequently, a year later, the planned service was christened Disney+ and it was announced that the service would go live in 2019 — just in time for its partnership with Netflix to come to an end.
In The Walt Disney Company’s Investor Day 2019 webcast, it was revealed that the Disney+ streaming service will be priced at $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. The service is scheduled to be launched in the American market on November 12,2019, with plans to expand internationally. Disney aims to cover all major regions across the globe within the next two years. Along with content from Walt Disney Animation Studios, Disney+ will also feature content from many of the company’s other subsidiaries, including Pixar, Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm, Fox and National Geographic, with dedicated pages for each brand on the app.
