If yesterday's
Frozen II movie billboards didn't satisfy your
Disney cravings, then maybe all these out-of-home ads for the entertainment giant's new streaming service will do the trick.
Today
Disney+ officially joins the
Streaming Wars, launching a subscription streaming service that will boast not only an extensive collection of
Disney movies and series past and present, but be home to
Pixar animation,
Marvel Studios, Star Wars, National Geographic and even
The Simpsons.
In addition to this wealth of previously released, beloved movies and television shows,
Disney+ will also sport brand new original content, like the first ever live-action
Star Wars series,
The Mandalorian, staring
Pedro Pascal in the titular role.
Other announced projects from a galaxy far, far away include an
'Obi-Wan Kenobi' series with
Ewan McGregor respiring his role as the infamous
Jedi and a
Rogue-One spin-off prequel series featuring
Diego Luna's 'Cassian Andor'.
In addition to being the first streamer to host the $1.1 billion box office smash
Captain Marvel,
Disney+ also has new
Marvel television projects in development based on established
MCU characters like
WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki and
Hawkeye, plus fan-favourites characters never before brought to life in live-action,
She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel and
Moon Knight.
Following the recent acquisition of key entertainment assets from 20th Century Fox, the platform will also not only be joined by 'Bart Simpson' and his animated family, but by new takes on the Home Alone, Night at the Museum, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Cheaper by the Dozen film franchises.
Access to these thousands of movies and TV shows, from family-friendly animation,
Oscar winners, sci-fi, fantasy, comedy, drama, musicals, nature documentaries and more, will cost
U.S. subscribers just $6.99 per month.
New episodes will be released week-by-week rather than available all at once to binge, helping to lock subscribers in for longer.
These Disney Plus launch billboards, street posters and transit bus shelters were photographed along the Sunset Strip, Cahuenga Boulevard, 3rd Street, Ventura Boulevard, Melrose Avenue, Santa Monica Boulevard and Highland Avenue from October 18 to October 31, 2019.
The initial
Disney+ launch billboards certainly look slightly corporate with all the logos, but they do a great job of highlighting all the amazing entertainment brands involved, whilst the
Bart Simpson versions add some humour to proceedings.
The follow-up ad creatives featuring iconic characters and films like
Moana, Tangled, Darth Vader, Thor, The Incredibles, Toy Story and more, help illustrate the diversity of the platform.
You can get even more excited for the
Disney+ launch by taking a look at these screen-worn
costumes from Star Wars: The Mandalorian,
Anna Kendrick's Noelle film costumes and these
costumes and props from the live-action Lady and the Tramp movie on display at the
D23 Expo 2019.
Plus you can also compare
Disney's outdoor adverting campaign to the recent
Apple TV+ launch billboards also fighting to stand out in the city skyline at the moment.
Now if you'll excuse
Daily Billboard, we have a few hundred shows and films to watch on the newest streaming platform in town.
