Disney+ Reports Subscriber Surge In 2025 Thanks To 3 Key Movies & TV Series

Disney+ has seen a significant spike in subscribers in 2025, with three standout titles leading its monumental growth. The streaming platform's recent growth is being credited to the breakout success of select films and series that have drawn in an array of demographics.
