Disney’s Netflix rival is here, serving up Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar originals, along with a post-modern revamp of High School Musical and almost every episode of The Simpsons. Except, due to both the coronavirus pandemic and Disney’s newcomer status in the streaming game, a lot of that original new content is a while off yet.

This October, though, its flagship show finally returns, with The Mandalorian back for Season 2.

Here’s what’s coming soon to Disney+ UK in October 2020:
