Disney Plus Day takes place today (12th November) and there's lots to look forward to - *calls in sick*.
Here's everything we know about Disney Plus Day 2021.
Firstly, if you're new to the platform or have never heard of this before, Disney Plus Day is an annual event on the streaming platform which sees some of the most popular movies being released at no extra cost, special insights into upcoming films and TV series, and lots of other treats.
This year, Jungle Cruise and Shang-Chi are among the titles being made free to view for all subscribers on Disney Plus Day. There's also some exclusive Star Wars and Marvel teasers to watch out for.
"The inaugural Disney Plus Day will be a grand-scale celebration of our subscribers across the entire company," said Bob Chapek, CEO of The Walt Disney Company. "This day of appreciation brings to life our mission to entertain, inform, and inspire fans and families around the globe through the power of unparalleled storytelling, and will become an annual tentpole event to be amplified across our global businesses."
Disney Plus subscriptions are usually £7.99 a month or £79.99 a year.
But now's a good time to join as new customers are being offered their first month for £1.99 if they join before 14th November.
All the details about subscription fees and the limited time offer can be found here.
"Subscribers to the service will be entertained with an inaugural Disney Plus Day fan celebration on Disney Plus, which will include breaking news, first looks, new trailers, exclusive clips, and appearances from Disney Plus creators and stars," said the platform.
Shang-Chi, Jungle Cruise and Home Sweet Home Alone are just some of the streaming platform's free premieres on 12th November. There's also some exciting news for Star Wars and MCU fans.
Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings will be premiered to all subscribers at no extra cost on Disney Plus Day. Off the back of the new superhero flick, there's also a docu-special titled Marvel Assembled: The Making of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
