While the launch of Disney+ in Japan is only partial at the moment, it is expected that once Disney+ is launched fully in Japan, it will see more demand there. During the earnings call, we also learned that the focus of the Disney Company for Disney+ at the moment is to keep investing in new and exciting content!

According to Bob Chapek, the current Chief Executive Officer of the Walt Disney Company, the key to getting even more Disney+ subscribers is adding new content to the service. With the Walt Disney Company earning 145 Emmy nominations across all of their content, some of which came from Disney+, we’d say the future is looking bright for the future of Disney entertainment offerings!

We can’t wait to see what new and unique entertainment offerings premiere on Disney+ for us and our 60.5 million friends to enjoy!
