Disney+ New Releases: May 2024
A Star Wars finale, a Marvel finale, and some intriguing documentaries join Disney+ in May 2024. Oh yeah, and Doctor Who!
It’s an exciting time for Disney+ subscribers. That’s because Disney’s agreement to stream new episodes of Doctor Who is about to start bearing fruit.
On May 10, Disney+ subscribers in the U.S. will be able to access to the two newest episodes of Who season (or, excuse me: series) 14: “Space Babies” and “Devil’s Chord.” Additionally, the 2023 Christmas special “The Church on Ruby Road” will be available to stream then as well.
For more traditional Disney-heads, May 2024 sees one Star Wars season premiere (Tales of the Empire on May 4), one Star Wars season finale (The Bad Batch on May 1), and one Marvel finale (X-Men ’97 on May 15). May 22 also sees the premiere of Marvel Studios’ Assembled: The Making of X-Men ’97, which should be a fascinating look at the recent animated hit.
Three documentaries of note premiere this month as well. Beatles fans will be able to access the classic doc Let It Be on May 8. That will be followed by The Beach Boys on May 24 and Jim Henson Idea Man on May 31.
Here’s everything coming to Disney+ this May.
