It’s only been a few weeks since members of BTS announced they’re taking a break to focus on their solo careers, but that’s not stopping their studio Hybe from plotting new projects. They entered a multi-year deal with Disney, that will include several projects featuring the chart-topping K-pop group.

Two of the titles included in this deal are the concert film BTS: Permission To Dance On Stage – LA, which was filmed at the Sofi stadium back in November, and the docuseries BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star, featuring footage filmed over the past nine years.

V of BTS is also expected to star in In The Soop: Friendcation, a travel reality series about a group of five friends embarking on a surprise trip together. Its cast will also include Itaewon Class’ Seo-jun Park, Parasite star Woo-shik Choi, singer and actor Hyung-sik Park, and rapper Peakboy.

Hybe signed a deal with The Walt Disney Asia Pacific and their head of content Jessica Kam-Engle said they’re thrilled to be collaborating with this company to showcase their original content created with powerful artist IP.

From WandaVision to Loki, Disney+ has given us some amazing Marvel shows over the years and another one is on the way. She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is set to premiere on this streaming service later this year and the first trailer promises one wild ride.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will see Tatiana Maslany take the role of Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk, a lawyer leading a superhuman law division. Her life gets complicated after she receives a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner and gains superpowers similar to his own.

Mark Ruffalo is set to return as Bruce Banner aka Hulk in this series and he’s expected to pass the baton to Maslany as gets ready to say goodbye to the MCU.

“Tatiana Maslany is frickin’ legendary as the She-Hulk… There are some really good, funny, cool, long, long scenes between Professor and her. We’ve never really seen the Hulk interact with people the way he does in that show. It’ll be really interesting,” Ruffalo told Access Hollywood.

In addition to Maslany and Ruffalo, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law will also star Tim Roth, Benedict Wong, Ginger Gonzaga, Jameela Jamil, and Renée Elise Goldsberry. It’s set to premiere on Disney+ on August 17 and it will consist of nine episodes.

The streamer recently announced that the Stamos-starred sports comedy Big Shot had been renewed for season two. Production of the new episodes is expected to start at some point in 2022 according to Deadline.

Stamos confirmed the news on his social media with a clip that shows him trying to make a “big shot” and repeatedly failing.

Big Shot comes from Doogie Howser, M.D creator David E. Kelley and focuses on college basketball coach Marvyn Korn (Stamos), who suddenly loses his job. He unexpectedly gets a chance to rebuild his reputation after an elite private high school for girls offers him a coaching position. Korn quickly realizes that his old methods are not working in this new setting, and in order to get results he has to change his approach.

The series also stars Jessalyn Gilsig as Holly Barrett; Korn’s assistant coach and Biology teacher at the school. The rest of the cast includes Yvette Nicole Brown, Richard Robichaux, Sophia Mitri Schloss, Tiana Le, and Monique Green.

Disney+ gave amazing spin-off shows to many of Marvel’s very best supporting players, and they’ve got another one on the way. Danai Gurira, who played the fierce warrior Okoye in Black Panther, is set to reprise her iconic role in an upcoming Disney+ series.

This promising show will tell the origin story of the Dora Milaje general, and it’s actually been in development for quite some time. Earlier this year, it’s been reported that the Black Panther director Ryan Coogler struck a five-year exclusive television deal with Disney+ and this series will be one of the projects born out of this collaboration.

In addition to appearing in this Disney+ series, Gurira is also set to play Okoye in the upcoming sequel Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The future of this project was uncertain after the tragic passing of its main star Chadwick Boseman, but it’s been confirmed that the role of T’Challa won’t be recast and the sequel will proceed with the rest of the original cast.

Okoye isn’t the first fan-favorite Marvel character to get her stand-along series on Disney+. WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier were released to great success earlier this year, while Loki is set to premiere on Disney+ on June 9th.

The intimate concert film is heading to Disney+. 

Taylor Swift announced that a film titled, Folklore: the Long Pond Studio Sessions, is premiere exclusively on the streamer on Wednesday, November 25. 

The musical icon announced the news via social media.

Swift and her collaborators on the album secretly recorded it earlier this year thousands of miles apart. It was just in September 2020, that they were assembled for the first time together at the studio to perform all 17 songs on the album in order. 

Folklore was an album that was made completely in isolation, which means that Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, and I never saw each other while we were collaborating and creating the album,” Swift said to Good Morning America. “But we got together at Long Pond studio and for the very first time got to create this music together, play through it, talk through it. We were joined by Justin Vernon and it was filmed by Disney+.”

Watch the trailer for Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions below.

For a long time, it seemed that Neil Patrick Harris will not be able to leave his breakout role as the titular kid doctor from Doogie Howser M.D. behind him. No matter what he did, he was still recognized first through his early 90s’ character. However, after a series of other hit roles, he finally managed to do so. Now, let’s hope his replacement will not face the same problem.

A reboot of the classic ABC show is now in development in Disney+. The working title of the project is Doogie Kameāloha, M.D. and as the name suggests, it will have a female lead. The series will take place in Hawaii and the teenage doctor will be 16-year-old Lahela “Doogie” Kameāloha, a daughter of an Irish mother and a local father.

The series will probably not be totally different from the original as Dayna and Jesse Bochco, wife and son of Doogie Howser creator Steven Bochco will serve as executive producers alongside Kourtney Kang from How I Met Your Mother and Fresh Off the Boat.

President of content and marketing at Disney+, Ricky Strauss, said in a statement: “30 years ago, a young medical prodigy took the world by storm and left a lasting impact on pop culture. Kourtney and the team at 20th Television have created a very modern take on this beloved property which will resonate with our global Disney+ audience. We can’t wait to introduce the world to the new Doogie!”

Production is scheduled to begin later this year and the series is set for a 2021 release.

Disney+’s The Mandalorian garnered huge commercial and critical success with its first season. It got 15 Emmy awards nominations, including Outstanding Drama, Outstanding Guest Actor, and of course, Outstanding Visual Effects. The network was quick to confirm a second season for the series and it turns out we will not have too long of a wait.

Disney announced on Twitter that the second season will premier on October 30, 2020. The tweet included a new logo for the show, showing the Child aka Baby Yoda walking alongside Pedro Pascal’s Mando within the show’s title with a blue-hued color scheme. A trailer for the new season, however, is still to be released.

It is still unclear whether the release pace of the episodes will be similar to the first season’s. In the first season, the first two episodes were released in a three-day interval, and the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker premiere came right before the final episode. Now, there is no other big outing in the Star Wars universe to affect the schedule.

The channel is due to stream several other Star Wars projects in the coming years. One of them is a show centered around Rogue One’s Cassian Andor and another show about Obi-Wan Kenobi—with Ewan McGregor reprising his role from the prequel trilogy. The Kenobi series’ production schedule was pushed back, however, after it had undergone some rewrites.

Did Christmas come early this year? According to Disney and Lucasfilm, that may just be the case. The companies have announced that The LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special will land exclusively on Disney+ on Tuesday, November 17th.  

The official synopsis released reads: “Rey leaves her friends to prepare for Life Day as she sets off on a new adventure with BB-8 to gain a deeper knowledge of the Force. At a mysterious Jedi Temple, she is hurled into a cross-timeline adventure through beloved moments in Star Wars cinematic history, coming into contact with Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Yoda, Obi-Wan and other iconic heroes and villains from all nine Skywalker saga films. But will she make it back in time for the Life Day feast and learn the true meaning of holiday spirit?”

It seems the new holiday special will also make an homage to the 1978’s now-infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. George Lucas has actually disowned the original special. He has never released it on home video and it survived only with bootleg recordings uploaded by fans. However, the official press release explicitly mentions “Chewbacca’s homeworld of Kashyyyk for a Wookiee-sized celebration of the galaxy’s most cheerful and magical holiday, Life Day.” 

The holiday special is directed by Ken Cunningham with a script written by David Shayne. Shayne is also an executive producer alongside James Waugh, Josh Rimes, Jason Cosler, Jacqui Lopez, Jill Wilfert, and Keith Malone. We can only hope the new special will be a significant improvement.

For a long time, it seemed that Neil Patrick Harris will not be able to leave his breakout role as the titular kid doctor from Doogie Howser M.D. behind him. No matter what he did, he was still recognized first through his early 90s’ character. However, after a series of other hit roles, he finally managed to do so. Now, let’s hope his replacement will not face the same problem.

A reboot of the classic ABC show is now in development in Disney+. The working title of the project is Doogie Kameāloha, M.D. and as the name suggests, it will have a female lead. The series will take place in Hawaii and the teenage doctor will be 16-year-old Lahela “Doogie” Kameāloha, a daughter of an Irish mother and a local father.

The series will probably not be totally different from the original as Dayna and Jesse Bochco, wife and son of Doogie Howser creator Steven Bochco will serve as executive producers alongside Kourtney Kang from How I Met Your Mother and Fresh Off the Boat.

President of content and marketing at Disney+, Ricky Strauss, said in a statement: “30 years ago, a young medical prodigy took the world by storm and left a lasting impact on pop culture. Kourtney and the team at 20th Television have created a very modern take on this beloved property which will resonate with our global Disney+ audience. We can’t wait to introduce the world to the new Doogie!”

Production is scheduled to begin later this year and the series is set for a 2021 release.

Disney+’s The Mandalorian garnered huge commercial and critical success with its first season. It got 15 Emmy awards nominations, including Outstanding Drama, Outstanding Guest Actor, and of course, Outstanding Visual Effects. The network was quick to confirm a second season for the series and it turns out we will not have too long of a wait.

Disney announced on Twitter that the second season will premier on October 30, 2020. The tweet included a new logo for the show, showing the Child aka Baby Yoda walking alongside Pedro Pascal’s Mando within the show’s title with a blue-hued color scheme. A trailer for the new season, however, is still to be released.

It is still unclear whether the release pace of the episodes will be similar to the first season’s. In the first season, the first two episodes were released in a three-day interval, and the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker premiere came right before the final episode. Now, there is no other big outing in the Star Wars universe to affect the schedule.

The channel is due to stream several other Star Wars projects in the coming years. One of them is a show centered around Rogue One’s Cassian Andor and another show about Obi-Wan Kenobi—with Ewan McGregor reprising his role from the prequel trilogy. The Kenobi series’ production schedule was pushed back, however, after it had undergone some rewrites.

Did Christmas come early this year? According to Disney and Lucasfilm, that may just be the case. The companies have announced that The LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special will land exclusively on Disney+ on Tuesday, November 17th.  

The official synopsis released reads: “Rey leaves her friends to prepare for Life Day as she sets off on a new adventure with BB-8 to gain a deeper knowledge of the Force. At a mysterious Jedi Temple, she is hurled into a cross-timeline adventure through beloved moments in Star Wars cinematic history, coming into contact with Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Yoda, Obi-Wan and other iconic heroes and villains from all nine Skywalker saga films. But will she make it back in time for the Life Day feast and learn the true meaning of holiday spirit?”

It seems the new holiday special will also make an homage to the 1978’s now-infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. George Lucas has actually disowned the original special. He has never released it on home video and it survived only with bootleg recordings uploaded by fans. However, the official press release explicitly mentions “Chewbacca’s homeworld of Kashyyyk for a Wookiee-sized celebration of the galaxy’s most cheerful and magical holiday, Life Day.” 

The holiday special is directed by Ken Cunningham with a script written by David Shayne. Shayne is also an executive producer alongside James Waugh, Josh Rimes, Jason Cosler, Jacqui Lopez, Jill Wilfert, and Keith Malone. We can only hope the new special will be a significant improvement.

July 31st will see The Muppets returning to television with their new show Muppets Now. The show will stream on Disney+ and will be the first-ever unscripted muppets show. In a teaser released by Disney, the crew is in high gears working towards the deadline.

The teaser shows a video conference held by The Muppets cast members such as Kermit, Miss Piggy, Swedish Chef, Pepé, Rowfl, Gonzo, Dr. Teeth, and Walter. Kermit breaks the news about the show being green-lighted and introduces a new character—Joe, a weasel who works in legal. They then discuss ideas for the show and venue.

The show will see the cast members doing a variety of improv scenes and other unscripted materials. Each episode (or “muppisode”) will focus on a different topic ranging from lifestyle to game shows, interviews, cooking, and science. The show will also feature guest stars like Aubrey Plaza, Seth Rogan, RuPaul, and others. The first season will have 6 episodes dropped weekly on the streaming service. It will be directed by Kirk Thatcher, former director of 2002’s It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. He also co-wrote Muppets Treasure Island and The Muppets’ Wizard of Oz.
