What is your favorite streaming platform, and why is the answer Disney+?

Okay, maybe that’s not your answer, but you can’t deny that the platform has been wildly successful since it launched in 2019! Disney+ has been releasing (and announcing) countless original series based on franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, which may be the reason why the platform’s subscriber count has increased by 33% within the past year. Loki, Moon Knight, The Mandalorian, WandaVision — the success of these shows is worth celebrating…which is exactly why we’re excited to see Disney+ Day return!
Disney took to Twitter to announce that Disney+ Day will be returning on September 8th! It will lead into the D23 Expo.

Disney hasn’t announced much on what we can expect from this special day, however, we do know that we can expect a Disney+ Day premiere of the new Pinocchio film! The film presents the timeless classic in a live-action format, starring Tom Hanks, Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Keegan Michael Key, and Cynthia Erivo!
