Disney+ revealed they will be adding a sixth service to their streaming platform this week.
On February 23, Star joined the platform alongside Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, National Geographic and Disney to bring added value to your subscription service.
Disney recently announced that the service has 94.9 million subscribers worldwide, as it shared plans for a raft of new projects, including 10 new Marvel series and 10 new Star War series.
Hit drama series including Lost, 24 and Desperate Housewives, as well as films such as The Favourite, Working Girl and 9 To 5 will be among the raft of options when Star becomes available.
Liam Keelan, vice president of original programming in Europe and Africa, said there will be 10 new shows made in Europe, highlighting the French fantasy series Parallels and the Italian series The Good Mothers, the true story of an Italian prosecutor who decides her way into the Mafia is to get wives and girlfriends to turn and give evidence.
Keelan also confirmed there are UK series in the pipeline, saying: “There are a number of projects just on the cusp of announcement, a real range of different shows, dramas, comedy, unscripted, a really exciting line-up to announce soon.”
As part of the expansion customers will see s light increase in their monthly subscription fee.
Discussing the price hike, Jan Koeppen, president of The Walt Disney Company for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), said: “We feel really good about the price and the value we are offering subscribers.
“We’ve had one simple price so far, which is £5.99, and as of February 23, when Star goes live, we will continue to have one simple price and that price will be £7.99 per month.
“We think that is great value, and if you want to have even better value you can take out an annual subscription, which offers you 12 months for the price of 10 to make it even better value than the monthly one.”
Looking at the list of TV series and films being made available it is hard to disagree. The launch of Star has seen over 75 TV shows and 280 films made available in the UK.
Here is a full list of content coming to Star as part of you Disney+ subscription.
