Disney + will also offer four exclusive Star creations: the thriller Big Sky, the fantastic series Hellstrom, the drama Love, Victor (derived from the film Love, Simon) and Solar Opposites, new crazy animation from the creator of Rick and Morty.

The platform also unveiled its first French production projects: it will be a mini-series on the Malek Oussekine affair; another on the rap icon Soprano, a fantastic series, Parallels; and a family comedy, Weekend Family.

Who says adult content, also says reinforced parental control. The arrival of Star will be accompanied by a new system “to ensure that the right users see the right content”, promises David Popineau.
