Bad news for Netflix: Disney CEO Bob Iger now says that Marvel’s forthcoming streaming service, which is set to debut in late 2019, will exclusively get Star Wars and Disney movies. This is in addition to Pixar and Disney studio films, which were the content focus of the service when it was initially announced.
The addition of Marvel and Star Wars movies coming exclusively to the app (via CNBC) along with Disney’s television library, will make for a very deep well of content for the own-brand subscription streaming offering. This will be very useful in helping to attract subscribers who might be hesitant about putting down yet another recurring financial commitment with the growing selection of over-the-top streaming offerings.
