Disney+ will launch in several Eastern Europe and Asian markets in 2021. Launched on November 12, 2019 in North America, Disney+ offers an enormous content library encompassing the Mouse House's most popular properties, including Star Wars, Pixar, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The service has experienced tremendous growth over the last year, racking up more than 10 million in its first day of availability and garnering a whopping 86.8 million subscribers as of December 2. That's nearly 44% of Netflix's total worldwide subscribers, an enormous feat considering how Netflix's service has been around for more than a decade.
At Disney's 2020 Investor Day - which unleashed a torrent of announcements regarding the future of the MCU and Star Wars - the company confirmed Eastern Europe and Asia will gain have access to Disney+ in 2021. While the announcement specifically only mentioned South Korea and Hong Kong as Asian markets, the Eastern Europe markets will likely include Russia, Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and other countries that fall within the broadly defined region. See Disney's tweet announcing the expansion below:
Though it started in the U.S. and Canada, Disney+ has gradually rolled out across the world over the last year. One week after its North American launch, the service became available in Australia, New Zealand, and Puerto Rico. It has since rolled out in the U.K., Central Europe, Western Europe, and much of North Africa. Asia should prove to be important for Disney+ not just because it's the world's most populous region, but because the Asian market, particularly China, continues to have an outsized influence on how Hollywood operates. Though mainland China likely isn't included in the 2021 rollout right now, it's possible that Disney will start negotiating a way to get its juggernaut streaming service in front of those audiences sooner rather than later.
