by Emily Nagle
With May just around the corner, Disney has lots in store for their rapidly-growing streaming platform Disney+ that’s bound to appeal to a wide variety of audiences, including Star Wars fans, animation enthusiasts, or young children. As announced by the mass media conglomerate last year, these next few years will be their most ambitious yet, with the biggest content slate in the company’s nearly 100-year history.
In honor of May the Fourth Be With You, “Star Wars: The Bad Batch” will debut on May 4, with new episodes premiering every Friday of the month after that. Also releasing new episodes every Friday will be sports comedy series “The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers”, based on Disney’s 1992 film, mockumentary musical “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series”, and new sports drama series “Big Shot” starring John Stamos.
For Disney+’s youngest viewers, seasons 1 and 2 of “Special Agent Oso” and the second season of “Bluey Shorts” will be arriving.
Disney’s newest film “Cruella” will also be released in May. The live-action origin story of Cruella De Vil from “One Hundred and One Dalmatians” starring Emma Stone will be available through Premier Access on May 28.
