According to Iger, the Disney + video service will start in late 2019 in the United States. In April 2019, the company will unveil more details. According to Iger, this will then be a first glimpse of the streaming service.

Disney + will feature, among others, the series and films of Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars. Following the planned acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney, series and movies will also be added to National Geographic.

New Star Wars Series

In addition to the existing hardware, Disney also produces many new content for the video service. There is a series around the super bad Loki Marvel comics.

In addition, it was announced Thursday night that Disney + will receive a new Star Wars series about the character Cassian Andor, played by Diego Luna. The production of this series will begin next year, but the release date is not yet known.

No more Disney films on Netflix

After the launch of Disney +, the company wants to buy its movies and series from Netflix. Earlier this year, Iger had said that Disney service would be cheaper than the subscriptions of major competitors.

We still do not know when Disney + will be available in Europe. Disney has already posted online Thursday a Dutch page on Disney + online, where interested people can register.

Netflix announced this week that it was going to produce six new series and animated films in the years to come.
