There’s lots of exciting stuff coming to Disney+, but we’re waiting patiently for Disney’s new Obi-Wan Kenobi series (seriously, we are SO ready). We’ve already learned that Hayden Christiansen will be reprising his role as Darth Vader — he played the role in 2 of the 3 prequel films. And Ewan McGregor will star in the series, too! But today, we got even MORE casting news.
Recently, Disney held its Investor Day conference and shared SO MUCH info about SO MANY new Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, Disney live-action, and Disney animated shows and movies, along with new Nat Geo content and updates on Hulu shows as well!

Basically, it was an entertainment OVERLOAD. And while some of the new things announced will premiere in theaters, MOST of the announcements related to shows and movies of all kinds coming to Disney+. It was a LOT. So, today we’re breaking it down for you and sharing ALL (yes, ALL) of the shows and movies discussed during Investor Day that are coming soon to Disney+!
Last week’s Walt Disney Company virtual Investors Day was a whirlwind of information, and honestly, we’re still processing everything we heard!
Disney CEO Bob Chapek
We got news from the studios of Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, Pixar, and National Geographic, not to mention updates on streaming for Hulu and Star. It was A LOT to take in, but we’re breaking down the 5 BIGGEST news bombs of the night — the things that shocked and surprised us the most!
So, as you’ve probably noticed by now, Disney introduced a LOT of new movies and show titles this week.

We did notice a trend in some of those titles too. So, yes, Disney+ is set to revolutionize the way content synergizes across fictional worlds. But, did they really have to make a spin-off show of every movie in existence? Maybe that’s an exaggeration…but it’s gotta be close. Not gonna lie, we’re excited, but woooooow lots of spin-offs were announced.
It’s Disney Investor Day, which means it’s a big day for Disney entertainment news!

And Disney just released a first look video for the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars prequel series, Andor. But that’s not all because there’s some exciting news about the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, too!
Even though it’s only been here for a few months, we already feel like Disney+ has become a big part of our lives. We’ve been going back and watching some of our favorite movies and series, but we also can’t get enough of the new sensation that’s sweeping the nation, Baby Yoda.

While we’ve already shared that season 2 of The Mandalorian would be released this fall. Disney has now given an official month of arrival for when we will be able to watch the continuing adventures of Mando and The Child.

But, while we’ve had to say goodbye to our past friends, we’ve also been welcoming the stories of new ones (Season 2 of The Mandalorian, here we come!!). Still, we can’t help but wonder what will happen to the Star Wars universe with the epic conclusion to the recent trilogy. Well, you might want to listen up, Padawans! ‘Cause we’ve got some answers for you!
