Why was Mulan so important for Disney Plus - and what's Disney Plus Premier Access?
Premier Access is the latest addition to the already excellent Disney Plus streaming service. It's launch offering was the highly anticipated 2020 Mulan live-action remake back in September 2020.
How it works is pretty straightforward. You need to be a Disney Plus subscriber to join the Premier Access party - with monthly subscriptions available for just $6.99/£7.99/AU$11.99 - after which you can watch Mulan for an additional fee.
Mulan cost $29.99/£19.99/AU$34.99 to stream on its release date after that, which might seem like a lot, but is actually less than two cinema tickets when you think about it.
Plus, you got to watch Mulan from the comfort of your own home, meaning taking a bathroom break won't incur any icy stares - and the popcorn's considerably cheaper, too.
Perhaps best of all, you get to keep anything you buy through Premier Access and watch it as many times as you want for the duration of your Disney Plus subscription.
