Disney+ laid out a stellar lineup of movies and shows for the back half of 2025. The Disney-owned streamer already had a big year with the releases of Andor, Daredevil: Born Again, and Paradise. That isn't slowing down anytime soon with a new batch of original and returning series set for release later this year.

In its latest 'Coming Soon in 2025' sizzle reel, Disney+ revealed the platform's nine biggest upcoming series and films over the next six months. Some popular series, like Star Wars: Visions and Marvel Zombies, are also set for release in 2025 but were absent from the video. However, the highlighted titles make for a strong slate on Disney+.
