Jungle Cruise

In the early 1900s, Captain Frank Wolff (Dwayne Johnson) and Dr. Lily Houghton (Emily Blunt) set sail in search of the legendary Tree of Life. Along the way, they face endless dangers, including a group of competing explorers who want to beat them to their goal. Another Disney+ Premier Access exclusive, Jungle Cruise is a fantasy-adventure story inspired by a Disney World attraction of the same name. If you don’t like water rides, you can thankfully now enjoy the experience from the comfort of your living room.

Following the events of Captain America: Civil War, a tragedy from Romanoff’s past comes back to haunt her.

After multiple delays, Black Widow finally debuted in theaters and on Disney Plus in July, simultaneously setting box office and streaming records for 2021. Disney+ Premier Access subscribers can watch it now, but everyone else will have to wait a couple of months.
