The arrival of Disney+ has seen 12 Disney originals debut.
Original titles have become one of streaming services' biggest plays. That's why when entertainment conglomerate Disney launched Disney+ everyone wanted to know if that'd mean originals.
Information was released that there would be Disney originals, such as The Mandalorian and Lady and the Tramp. However, there was still no confirmation of the full list.
Now that Disney+ has officially launched in the USA, Netherlands and Canada, we've seen 12 Disney originals released, all in 4K quality too.
Disney will also be debuting several new titles in 2020 that will only be available on Disney+. Many of these are Marvel titles, some which will cost $20 million or more per episode to produce.
As we move towards Christmas the movie Noelle could be this year's big hit. Then as mentioned above, The Mandalorian is sure to have fans excited. It's the first ever live-action Star Wars TV series and will be released with weekly episodes.
Interestingly there's also the SparkShorts collection, which is a series of short films. Disney has been renowned over the years for some of the mini movies it has created. These are typically shown as a preview in a cinema, but now can be debuted on Disney+.
Disney+ originals are a mix of films, TV shows, documentaries, short films and special features.

Streaming originals
Streaming services have moved against solely broadcasting everyone else's shows.
Netflix has created the popular and loved series Bojack Horseman, Stranger Things and Orange is the New Black. This has been one of Netflix's key successes.
Then there's Amazon Prime which has rolled out Sneaky Pete, The Marvelous Mrs. Maivel and Patriot. Sneaky Pete alone has drawn rave reviews including a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Apple's brand new subscription service Apple TV+ is built purely on originals. At least for now it remains so, but it'd be a shock if it were to stay this way forever. Apple TV's Morning Wars was the platform's headliner but has so far drawn mixed reviews.
You'll be sure to keep an eye on the news to see what else Disney has up its sleeve. As the only two things for certain: originals are here to stay and streaming services are continually investing heavily in them.
Looking into the future it seems like we'll see Disney+ and Netflix go head to head.

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please note that the information published on our site should not be construed as personal advice and does not consider your personal needs and circumstances. While our site will provide you with factual information and general advice to help you make better decisions, it isn't a substitute for professional advice. You should consider whether the products or services featured on our site are appropriate for your needs. If you're unsure about anything, seek professional advice before you apply for any product or commit to any plan and read any disclosure documents (such as any Target Market Determination (TMD) and/or Product Disclosure Statement (PDS)) issued by the provider before making a decision.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
