New on Disney Plus in August 2021: All the new movies and shows
As another new month rolls around, so does another new batch of movies and TV shows to stream on Disney Plus. New Marvel series What If…? starts streaming this August and questions the hypotheticals of the MCU, while the Emma Stone-led movie Cruella is now available to watch for no additional cost after releasing via Premier Access earlier in the year. Star Wars: The Bad Batch continues to stream weekly, too.
Meanwhile, in the UK, there are plenty of old favorites and new releases courtesy of Star. TV shows Love, Simon and Grown-Ish both have their season finales this month, plus there are plenty of additions to the movie selection, including Aliens, My Cousin Vinny, and Joy. The Walking Dead season 11 starts streaming weekly in August in the UK, too. Keep scrolling to see everything new on Disney Plus in the US and the UK in August 2021, with three of our biggest highlights at the top.
What If…? – August 11
Marvel's What If…? does exactly what it says on the tin, asking: what if certain pivotal events in the MCU had gone down a little differently? The animated series features the voice of Jeffrey Wright as the Watcher, who observes the multiverse, above everyone else, and narrates the show. Expect appearances from characters like Peggy Carter, T'Challa, Thanos, Bucky Barnes, Thor, and Loki (amongst many, many more). The first episode is available to watch on August 11, with subsequent episodes streaming weekly.
Disney Gallery: Star Wars: The Mandalorian – August 25
This special episode of Disney Gallery centers around the making of The Mandalorian season 2 finale. Initially released as an eight-part documentary series, it covered the making of season 1, but a special episode released at Christmas last year was concerned with going behind the scenes of season 2. Now, this follow-up special has a particular focus on a certain secret cameo in the finale and the de-aging technology that Lucasfilm used, as well as the thought process behind bringing Luke Skywalker into the Mando-verse.
Cruella – August 27
Set in '70s London, Cruella follows Emma Stone's Estella (AKA Cruella-to-be) and shows how she went from living on the streets with a pair of thieves and scrubbing floors in Liberty, the city's famous department store, to be the ruthless fashion icon with iconic two-toned hair. The live-action Disney origin story is directed by I, Tonya helmer Craig Gillespie and co-written by The Favourite screenwriter Tony McNamara. Joel Fry, Emily Beecham, Mark Strong, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Jamie Demetriou also star.
