This year's Star Wars Celebration is officially in full-swing and our own Editor-in-Chief Paul Shirey is in attendance to report on all the stellar surprises of the event. Yesterday as their way of kicking the big show into high gear, Disney announced a myriad of details related to their upcoming streaming service Disney+. Among the major headlines from the reveal was word that the subscription-based platform will be made available on November 12, 2019 – for the low cost of just $6.99. Customers will also be given the option of going full-mouse with a yearly subscription for $69.99, which would save you roughly $14 a year. Beyond pricing, intentions for the service, and a glimpse into what will be made available on Day 1, Disney also detailed a few of the shows set to make their way to the service.

We'll get to the Marvel shows in just a moment, but not before I mention that a TV series based on THE SANDLOT is now in early development for Disney+. Oh sure, we've known about the project since last month, but it's always nice to hear the official word on potentially promising projects, wouldn't you agree? Here's hoping that Disney really swings for the fences with this update to the classic family film. In addition to THE SANDLOT home run, Disney+ announced that every episode of THE SIMPSONS will be made available on the service as well. The House of Mouse also revealed some of their Marvel plans for the streamer, including the title for their upcoming Scarlet Witch and Vision series – now titled WANDAVISION. The studio also confirmed FALCON AND WINTER SOLIDER, starring Sam Wilson/Falcon (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) as odd couple crime fighters.
