Welcome to the inaugural Disney+ Day. It’s one part birthday — Disney+, the streaming service, just turned two years old — and one part look at the future, with the company showcasing dozens of shows that are coming online now, in the coming weeks, and in the months and years ahead.
It’s also a definitive reminder from Disney+ — which just announced that it now has more than 118 million paid subscribers worldwide — that the first two years were just the beginning. And that there’s a lot more to come.
