The subscription to Disney+ will give you access to a massive library of films and shows from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, National Geographic, and Star, and that’s definitely a good reason to stay home

Who else is excited about this? While we’re just hooked on Netflix and HBO Max, we’re so glad that the highly anticipated streaming service Disney+ will be arriving in Singapore to provide us with more options, so there is really no reason to say that there’s nothing to watch.

Singapore is the first market globally that Disney+ will launch with all six content brands: Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, National Geographic, and Star—making it a winner for everyone in family, whether you’re a comic book lover, film buff, someone who loves their Disney classics or those who would love to do a series marathon.

There will be a compelling library of 500 films and 15,000 episodes, and growing as it will also be the home to exclusive original content and specials.
