Disney+: What’s Coming in November

Disney+

Earlier this month, Disney announced the films and television series that are coming to Disney+ in the month of November.

In addition to the Disney+ exclusives, the streamer is the home for movies and series from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic.  What follows below are original films, new episodes, and new library titles heading to Disney+ in November.  It goes without saying that library title availability varies by region and subject to change.  New episodes include the synopsis for each new episode so this is a warning if you want to avoid anything considered even a slight spoiler for The Mandalorian.  I’ve read the descriptions and to me, they avoid any spoilers altogether.
