Every Movie & TV Show Coming to Disney+ in April

by

This April promises an exciting lineup on Disney+, catering to diverse tastes with both new installments of beloved shows and exclusive specials. From heart-pounding superhero sagas to exhilarating space journeys, and even a glimpse into Disney‘s rich past, the service ensures viewers won’t want to look away throughout the entire month.

I’m looking forward to discovering how Marvel and Star Wars characters are being combined in an unusual manner, along with some lesser-known treasures. It’s not just about the famous faces; there’s a diverse range of content being released that caters to various preferences, from intense dramas to lighter, insider stories. Here’s a rundown of the most anticipated Disney+ releases this month.

‘Marvel Television’s Daredevil: Born Again – Episode 7’ – April 1

In this new installment, Charlie Cox reappears as Matt Murdock, a lawyer whose senses surpass even the sharpest eyesight. Meanwhile, Vincent D’Onofrio towers over the scene as Wilson Fisk. Deborah Ann Woll and Elden Henson make their return, portraying Karen Page and Foggy Nelson, the core of Matt’s team. Directors like Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead maintain a gritty and dynamic tone, offering an action-drama that seems genuine and unpolished.

The seventh installment delves into Matt’s continuous juggling act – upholding justice during the day while meting out toughness at night. The power struggle of Fisk in New York is escalating rapidly, and age-old conflicts between them are reopening. The situation seems to be leading towards a significant confrontation, with the air thickening with tension as the season approaches its climax.

The new season begins with Doctor Who encountering Belinda Chandra, portrayed by Varada Sethu, which initiates a mission to return her to Earth. An enigmatic force impedes their progress, plunging the team into fierce fights against colossal adversaries and alarming perils. This interstellar journey promises to keep us on our toes, wondering what lies ahead.

We get an exclusive peek into the production of ‘Sea Lions of the Galapagos,’ observing filmmakers closely following sea lion lives. Moreover, it highlights the efforts of the Guardians – local individuals striving to safeguard this delicate environment from mounting dangers. Essentially, it offers a stunning portrayal of nature and those preserving its existence.
