Disney+ will be home to over 6,000 hours worth of content, both original titles like The Mandalorian, Lady and the Tramp, and The World According to Jeff Goldblum, and existing titles like Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, Captain Marvel, and Guardians of the Galaxy.

That’s a lot of stuff to watch, and the best part of it is, you can bring it along with you when you download it. And while most of that downloaded content leaves other streaming services, that will not be the case for Disney+, which will let you keep the downloads even when the content itself leaves the streaming service.

Not too long ago, it was reported that Disney was interested in rebooting their witchy cult classic Hocus Pocus without the original cast. While the news that the film would be coming back was great for fans, it was upsetting to know that the original cast would not be back. However, that has now been dispelled. At least somewhat.

There are new reports that say Disney is developing Hocus Pocus 2 for Disney+, their exclusively streaming service. Additionally, they are trying to bring back the original witch trio played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy. More on the report below.

First time writer/director Jeffrey A. Brown just had his seaside horror film The Beach House open the Brooklyn Horror film Festival. Now his film was acquired by Shudder, AMC’s horror streaming service.
The Beach House stars Liana Liberato, Noah Le Gros, Jake Weber, and Maryanne Nagel and is produced by Andrew D. Corkin (We Are What We Are), Tyler Davidson (Take Shelter), and Sophia Lin (Compliance). The film made its world premiere earlier this month in Europe.

The entire streaming landscape is changing, quickly. Entertainment companies are trying to reclaim their rightful franchises so that they can stream it on their own services. NBC paid billions of dollars to rebuy the rights to The Office, and WB did the same so that Friends and The Big Bang Theory could be streamed on HBO Max, while Disney let the deal they had with Netflix expire so that they could get their content back so that it could be streamed on Disney+. And WB’s latest move only leaves fewer franchises left for mainstream streaming sites like Netflix.

WB has acquired the streaming rights to all of the Studio Ghibli films, which will now be added to their HBO Max streaming services. More on the report below.

We are only a few weeks away from the launch of Disney+, Disney’s exclusive streaming service that will be home to over 6,000 hours worth of original and existing content. But as if all the films and TV series wasn’t enough, we can expect to see some documentaries as well. At the International Documentary Association showcase event, Disney+ revealed that they are currently developing new documentaries onMarvel, Disney lyricist Howard Ashman, acclaimed chef Wolfgang Puck, and more. Check out more on the report below.
