Compared to other streaming services, Disney+ appears to be more careful and strategic with its new releases, particularly with respect to its MCU and Star Wars franchises, building upon existing films and TV series and expanding what we know about each universe. Indeed, the newest highly talked-about spectacle that has caught everyone’s attention is no other than the Star Wars prequel series Andor. Upon its premier in September 2022, Andor was immediately praised as one of the best Star Wars TV series yet.
In addition to Star Wars, Disney+ has also rounded out its selection of MCU series, with She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, wrapping up Phase 4. There’s a lot to look forward to in this mega-franchise, from the Marvel Zombies series, season 2 of What If…?, and more. We could go on and on about the great deal of new updates that comes out every day, but, for now, let’s focus on which TV series are coming to Disney+ in November 2022.
