This fall, Disney+ has a plethora of releases, including two movies we absolutely cannot wait to see and enough new television to keep us occupied for weeks. Disney+ is set to enter a mystical phase with witches, boy puppets, and a Galactic Empire. The streaming service is launching with a new version of Pinocchio, a live-action adaptation of the classic Disney cartoon picture directed by Robert Zemeckis. Tom Hanks (The Lost Symbol) plays Geppetto, Benjamin Evan Ainsworth (The Haunting of Bly Manor) is Pinocchio, and Cynthia Erivo (The Outsider) is the Blue Fairy in the next film, which is set for release on September 8.
Andor, the newest series in the long-running fantasy genre, continues Disney+’s Star Wars trend, beginning with Pinocchio. On September 21st, you can tune in to see Diego Luna in his starring role as master thief Cassian Andor. Finally, this fall, Disney+ will dive right into the Halloween season. On September 30th, the streamer will launch Hocus Pocus 2, the sequel to the popular Halloween film. Sanderson Sisters stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, and Bette Midler are all back for another wild adventure in Salem.

The comedic series featuring Lauren Graham will return for a second season on Disney+ on September 28.
