Disney Plus has finally released in the UK, and for a pretty reasonable £5.99 per month, you can get streaming on the device of your choice. <\/p>\n
With Disney Plus, you can watch all the Star Wars, Disney, Marvel and The Simpsons you can handle. Think of it as being like Netflix, but focused specifically on Disney-related and Disney-owned content, like Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar and more. Here’s the full list of Disney Plus UK movies and TV shows<\/a> available from launch, which will help you figure out if you want the service. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The launch line-up is pretty good, even compared to the existing libraries in the US and Australia. Now we’re getting stuck into the app, too, we can see it retains the Disney US feature of explaining when content is coming to the service in the future. That’s how we know Frozen 2 will be on Disney Plus UK on July 17 2020, for example. We’re less sure about Onward, which is out on April 3 in the US. <\/p>\n If you were hoping you’d get to watch every episode of Star Wars show The Mandalorian at launch in the UK, episodes have only started to ‘roll out<\/a>‘. Still, you’ve now got three episodes of this excellent show to enjoy. And let’s not underestimate how awesome it is to have 30 seasons of The Simpsons available to stream.<\/p>\n Subscribe here, at monthly or yearly tiers:<\/p>\n Below, we’ll talk you through everything we know about Disney Plus post-launch, including the price, compatible devices, free trial, shows, movies and more. You can also click here for our first impressions of Disney Plus UK<\/a>.<\/p>\n Disney Plus is now live in the UK! You can start watching it now<\/a>. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n All you have to do is head to the Disney Plus website<\/a>, create an account and enter your billing details to get started. With your login details to hand, you’ll then want to download Disney Plus onto the device of your choice, say a smartphone, smart TV, games console or tablet. Scroll down for a list of compatible devices. <\/p>\n Not sure you want it yet? Head here to grab a 7-day free trial of Disney Plus<\/a>. It’s easy to cancel if you don’t want to commit (here’s how you cancel Disney Plus<\/a>). <\/p>\n Below, we’ve added app links we’ve found so far for the UK launch, and we’ll add more as they appear.<\/p>\n Disney Plus costs £59.99 for an annual subscription, or £5.99 per month. These are the two available tiers, and you can cancel at any time. Unlike in the US, where it’s bundled in with ESPN and Hulu, in the UK Disney Plus is a standalone service. <\/p>\n Either tier gets you four concurrent streams, unlimited downloads with a maximum of 10 devices and the option to create seven profiles. <\/p>\n In the US, you can gift a year of Disney Plus either digitally or in the form of physical cards, but no such option has been announced for the UK yet.<\/p>\n Disney Plus indeed supports 4K and HDR. When you’re in the app, head over to the ‘details’ tab of a given movie or show and you’ll see a section that says ‘available in the following formats’, which will explain if the content in question features 4K Ultra HD and HDR. <\/p>\n You now have every Star Wars movie to watch in 4K with HDR. Enjoy!<\/p>\n Disney Plus has launched on pretty much any device you can name in the UK, including mobile devices, games consoles, streaming media devices and smart TVs<\/a>. You can take Disney Plus shows on the go, too, downloading as many movies and shows as you can fit on your device, as long as you have an active subscription and connect to the internet every 30 days. <\/p>\n Disney Plus UK has launched on LG TVs, Sky Q, Apple TV<\/a>, Roku streaming devices<\/a>, Android (5.0 and later), iOS (11.0 and later), PS4<\/a>, Xbox One<\/a>, LG WebOS smart TVs, Samsung Tizen smart TVs, Google Chromecast<\/a> and Amazon’s Fire range of streaming devices. <\/p>\n One notable exception is the Nintendo Switch<\/a>, which is still pretty poor at supporting streaming services. <\/p>\n Phillips’ Android-based smart TVs support Disney Plus too. Your Samsung TV may be able to get Disney Plus, as well. Read our guide<\/a> and discover if your TV can support it.<\/p>\n Click to see the full list of Disney Plus UK movies and shows<\/a> at launch, and see what you can stream right now. Every Star Wars movie minus The Rise of Skywalker is on there, as well as a near-complete list of Pixar movies and Marvel movies. You’ve also got 2019’s Aladdin and The Lion King movies on day one. Frozen 2, which just launched in the US, doesn’t arrive until 17 July in the UK according to the app. <\/p>\n Looking for recommendations? Check out our list of the best Disney Plus TV shows<\/a> and best Disney Plus movies<\/a>. Star Wars series The Mandalorian<\/a> is the clear highlight of Disney Plus originals. Episodes are rolling out weekly, and the first two are available now. <\/p>\n In the UK, all new episodes of original shows on Disney Plus will be released at 8am each Friday<\/strong>. Expect one new episode for each Disney Plus original show per week, except The Clone Wars, which will get two episodes per week until the show catches up with the US. <\/p>\n Other originals include the live-action Lady and the Tramp, High School Musical: The Series, Encore!, The World According to Jeff Goldblum, Togo, Diary of a Future President, Forky Asks a Question and The Imagineering Story at launch, too. Expect one episode for each original at launch. <\/p>\n In the future, Disney Plus is getting plenty of big exclusive shows. From the Marvel Cinematic Universe side of things, new shows include The Falcon and the Winter Soldier<\/a> (August), WandaVision<\/a> (November), Loki (2021), Hawkeye (2021) and animated show What If?. Further off, expect TV shows based on Moon Knight, Ms Marvel and She-Hulk. Unlike Marvel’s Netflix shows, too, these will canonically be part of the MCU, and feature actors crossing over between the movies and these TV series.<\/p>\n Lucasfilm has a second season of The Mandalorian<\/a> coming in October 2020, then further off it’s making shows featuring Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi and Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor from Rogue One. <\/p>\n It’s likely you can expect recent Disney-associated movies like Pixar’s Onward, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil on there before the end of 2020. In the US, Onward arrives early on April 3. Hopefully we’ll see it in the UK before long. <\/p>\n Disney Plus has made a deal with Sky to host Disney Plus on its Sky Q<\/a> platform at launch. That means you can watch Disney Plus as well as your other Sky content – it’ll just be added to your Sky bill. According to Pocket Lint<\/a>, full integration into the Sky Q platform won’t come until April, but you can watch Disney Plus through an app on your Sky Q box.<\/p>\n Disney Plus will be available on Now TV in the coming months, too. <\/p>\n\n
