Disney has released an extensive list of new content set to hit Disney+ on Friday as part of their Disney+ Day presentation. Some of them are fairly new information, like Under the Helmet: The Legend of Boba Fett, and a similar Marvel special. Others have been ong-anticipated, like Home Sweet Home Alone and The World According to Jeff Goldblum. In international markets, the decidedly less kid-friendly Hulu series Dopesick even makes an appearance, although not in the U.S. But there are more than a dozen high profile releases coming to Disney+ that day, and that doesn’t even count things like Fancy Nancy, which is going day-and-date with its new season.
“The direct-to-consumer business is the company’s top priority,” Disney chief Bob Chapek said back in August. “Among the unique advantages in promoting our service, our powerhouse brands, and the best array of direct-to-consumer touchpoints that we have across our businesses from the media networks to the theme parks to the consumer products. The synergy enables us to raise consumer awareness and engage with the screening services.”
