Everything new on Disney Plus in May 2020
Say hello to behind the scenes of The Mandalorian, and say goodbye to The Clone Wars
Disney+ already was huge when it launched in November 2019, given that it was the new home for Star Wars , the Marvel Cinematic Universe, NatGeo and, of course, Disney proper. But the new original content that piqued everyone's interest (or at least for Star Wars fans) was The Mandalorian .
And in May, we'll get a peek into what it took to make the first season of the series, and hear from the folks who actually made it happen.
Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian is an eight episode series that takes us behind the scenes of the newest entry into the Star Wars world. And also in May, The Clone Wars wraps up its epic run in the same universe.
Check out the full Disney+ schedule below. And you can still find the remainder of the April schedule here .
All the Disney, all the time
All the Disney (and then some), all the time
Disney+ is Disney, and so much more. The streaming service gets you the vast Disney catalog as well as the Marvel films and shows, the Star Wars universe, National Geographic, and so much more.
