BY: Morgan Thayer

It’s almost too magical to believe, but it’s true! Disney has a new streaming service coming out on November 12 called Disney+. This streaming service is sure to be one that is well worth your money. Starting at $6.99 a month, Disney + will offer content from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, and National Geographic. The service will feature classics, modern-day content, and even some new original shows and movies, such as the first ever live action Star-Wars series, remakes of popular Disney shows, and new movies with big name stars.

Disney + will be supported by iOS, Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Android, Android TV, PlayStation 4, Roku, and Xbox One. There is talk that Amazon and Disney are working to get the streaming service on Fire TV, but that has not been officially announced yet. According to Digital Trends, “Morgan Stanley analyst Benjamin Swinburne projected that Disney+ could have 13 million subscribers by the end of 2020, and 50 million subscribers across all of its online video services, which include Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+.”

So overall, get your snacks, TVs, and couches ready, because come November 12, binge-watching will have a whole new meaning.
