In December, Disney revealed that it would finally roll out its U.S.- and Japan-only streaming service Hulu to other international markets, including Canada.
However, instead of launching Hulu as a separate platform in these countries, Disney is bringing the service’s content to Disney+ via a new branded section called “Star” on February 23rd. In particular, Star will feature more adult-oriented fare, in stark contrast to Disney+’s family-friendly-skewing content up until this point. Disney+ will add new parental controls on February 23rd to ensure kids profiles cannot access age-inappropriate content without a PIN.
Now, Disney has confirmed that Star will launch with over 150 TV series and more than 500 movies in Canada, increasing to nearly 800 by the end of 2021. A good portion of this content will be older shows like Family Guy, The X-Files, 24 and Criminal Minds, and classic films like Die Hard, Alien, The Devil Wears Prada, but there will also be ‘Star Originals’ that will be exclusive to Disney+ in Canada.
The Star Originals that will be available on Disney+ Canada at launch are Love, Simon and Solar Opposites, while Star Originals coming later in 2021 include Only Murders in the Building (starring Hamilton, Ontario’s own Martin Short, Steve Martin and Selena Gomez), Dopesick (starring Will Chase, Rosario Dawson, Jake Dorman and Michael Keaton) and The Dropout (starring Kate McKinnon).
It’s important to note that Disney is also increasing the price of Disney+ Canada on February 23rd. Specifically, the monthly price is rising from $8.99 CAD to $11.99, while the annual subscription fee will increase from $89.99 to $119.99. Disney says current prices for existing subscribers (prior to February 23rd) will be honoured for six months, with the price change taking effect on the monthly or annual renewal date following August 22nd, 2021.
Now, without further ado, see below for the full list of content that is launching with Star on February 23rd:
