- When Disney launches its Netflix competitor in 2019, the Mouse House will pull its A-list movies and TV shows from Netflix.
- New research shows that most Netflix subscribers who have young children, who will likely be most affected by the change, have no idea Disney content will be removed.
- However, that doesn't mean they will cancel their subscriptions, likely because Netflix has made a big push to produce its own Netflix originals for kids.
For months, media insiders have chattered about Disney’s upcoming streaming service, particularly what effect it will have on Netflix. But new research shows most Netflix subscribers have no idea change is coming and that Disney will pull its marquee content from the streaming pioneer.
Since September, Disney has released a bunch of details about the upcoming service, which will be “family” oriented (no R-rated stuff). It will feature 4-5 original films and 4-5 original TV series, produced exclusively for the app. These include a "Star Wars" TV series (produced by Jon Favreau), a Marvel live-action TV series, and "High School Musical" and "Monsters Inc." shows. As for movies, there's a planned "3 Men and a Baby" remake of the 1980s franchise, and a live-action remake of Disney animated movie, "Sword and the Stone."See the rest of the story at Business Insider
