Can I watch Reservation Dogs online outside of the US?
Disney announced earlier this year that this much anticipated new series would eventually land on streaming service Disney Plus via Star for most regions outside of the US.
It looks like those viewers not in the States will have to hang tight for a bit longer however, as a firm release date has yet to be confirmed.
To see what else the platform has on the menu (spoiler alert: we're talking everything Star Wars, Pixar, Marvel movies, The Simpsons and much, much more), you can head directly to the Disney Plus website.
