Is Daddy's Home 2 on Disney Plus

Angela Lang/CNET

Disney Plus includes a huge Disney and Fox catalog of both new and classic movies and shows to stream. It has hundreds of movies and thousands of TV episodes from Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, X-Men, The Simpsons, Disney's eponymous studios and others. On top of that, the service has its own originals, like its original series from Star Wars and Marvel. And during the pandemic, Disney is skipping theaters for some of its movies to stream straight on Disney Plus or releasing some films to stream the same day they hit cinemas.

And while many movies originally intended for the big screen will be available on Disney Plus far earlier than they would normally, we still don't know when Disney Plus will be able to stream the company's biggest-budget movies, like Marvel's Black Widow, Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Eternals.

Black Widow is first up, and it's still slated for theatrical release on May 7. Disney has yet to comment on when Marvel fans can expect the movie to be available to stream.

Prior to the pandemic, you could generally count onDisney Plus to start streaming all of Disney's theatrical releases about six to 10 months after their big-screen debuts.

As Disney first started to cope with coronavirus cinema shutdowns,Disney Plus simply started streaming already-released movies months earlier than planned. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker began streaming three months early in May, as did Frozen 2 in March 2020, and Pixar's Onward hit Disney Plus just weeks its theatrical premiere. Then Disney started switching movies to be Disney Plus originals, essentially skipping theaters entirely. The company's live-action film version of the musical Hamilton arrived on Disney Plus this way in July and Pixar's Soul did too in December.

The biggest change in how Disney is releasing movies is its so-called Premiere Access model. Disney first tested this in September with Mulan, the 2020 mega-budget remake of Disney's 1998 animated classic, and it revived the model for the release of its animated feature Raya and the Last Dragon early in March. Premiere Access requires subscribers to pay an extra $30 fee to unlock access to these big new movies, typically becoming available the same day that the film debuts in theaters.

But it's unclear yet whether Disney Plus will release a film like Black Widow under the Premiere Access model at all -- and even if it does, it's unclear if that availability to stream would be the same day as the planned May 7 theatrical release date.

This article provides details about when to expect high-profile titles. It also summarizes the pipeline of originals coming to Disney Plus, with timing details if they're known.

Sebastian Stan's Bucky joins him to fight evil as a duo, and Daniel Bruhl will reprise his role of villain Zemo from Captain America: Civil War in the series. Even though the budget of the miniseries doesn't quite reach the stratospheric heights that MCU movies enjoy, Mackie said in June that the the filming experience for the show "feels exactly like" a big-screen Marvel movie.
