The major new series that’s debuting is, of course, Star Wars: The Bad Batch, the latest animated show set in the galaxy far, far away. An offshoot of The Clone Wars season 7, it follows the exploits of Clone Squad 99, a team of genetically enhanced troopers, as they work as mercenaries following the rise of the Empire. The series premiere lands on May 4th AKA Star Wars Day before the second outing drops on Friday.
Eight other titles also arrive the same day, including both seasons of Wonder Over Yonder, a sci-fi animation from Powerpuff Girls creator Craig McCracken, 2006 sports animated movie Everyone’s Hero, which was partially directed by Superman star Christopher Reeve prior to his death, and not one but two horse-themed drama films – namely, 2010 sequel Flicka 2 and 1991’s Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken.
MCU fans missing The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, meanwhile, can take some solace in the fact that Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer – the 2007 sequel starring the original Captain America, Chris Evans, as Johnny Storm – is likewise dropping on D+ this Friday. Last but not least, don’t miss the fourth episode of Big Shot, featuring John Stamos, and the seventh of The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers.
Catch all of this on Disney Plus this coming week.
