There's still no UK release date, though
If you're keen to secure your subscription to Disney Plus you'll be pleased to know that preorders for the new streaming platform have now opened on the Disney Plus website for most regions.
Disney made the announcement during the Emmys, which saw streaming giants Netflix and Amazon Prime Video taking home awards for their original shows.

However, there's still no word on how much the new streaming platform will cost in the UK, or whether it will also launch in November in this region – if you're in the UK you can't preorder Disney Plus yet, but you can register for updates at the website.
The announcement came after a night of Emmys success for streaming platforms, which saw Netflix's Bandersnatch – an interactive episode in the Black Mirror anthology – win the Outstanding Television Movie award.
Meanwhile, Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won two awards in the supporting actor and actress categories, according to Engadget.
