Disney+ has reintroduced a highly sought-after streaming deal, offering subscriptions for £1.99. The streaming giant has launched a 'limited-time promotion' that provides a 60% saving compared to the regular price.
The offer lets new and returning customers subscribe to Disney+ Standard with Ads for £1.99 a month, a deal which will last for four months. Ordinarily, this would amount to £19.96 in total, but it's currently available for only £7.96 – a saving of £12.
However, this bargain won't be available indefinitely and is set to finish on June 30. Following the four-month promotional period, Disney+ Standard with Ads will automatically renew at the prevailing monthly retail price unless cancelled.
This deal puts Disney+ as the cheapest big streaming site, even when compared to the lowest subscription tiers of Netflix (£5.99), Amazon's Prime Video (£5.99) and Apple TV+ (£8.99). The timing of this offer coincides with an exciting summer schedule of new and returning films and series, headlined by the Disney blockbuster Snow White, which is currently available for streaming.
Other releases slated for this summer include Marvel's Ironheart (June 25), season four of The Bear (June 26) and the new prequel series Alien: Earth (August 13). These additions will further enrich an already extensive library featuring recent hits and critically acclaimed series such as Andor, Welcome to Wrexham, Rivals, Only Murders in the Building and Shōgun, reports the Mirror.

Disney+ Buy Here Product Description
Disney+ has brought back its popular deal that lets new and returning customers join its Standard with Ads plan for £1.99 per month for four months.
For £1.99, subscribers can access a wealth of entertaining content, including Stolen Girl, Good American Family, and the second season of the hit reality show, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. While some may worry about ads disrupting their viewing experience, Disney+ has limited commercials to an average of less than four minutes per hour, fewer than traditional TV broadcasts.
Additionally, ads are only shown before a movie begins, not during the actual screening. Those willing to commit to a full year upfront on the Standard or Premium plan will essentially receive two months free.
By opting for an annual subscription, users can enjoy 12 months of access for the price of 10, saving up to £25.98 in the process.
This upgrade also includes superior video quality, with up to 4K UHD and HDR, as well as the ability to stream on four devices at once. Members of Disney+ have expressed their satisfaction with the service on Trustpilot, with one reviewer stating: "Offering a fantastic and constantly updated collection."
Another fan raved about the addition of new content, stating: "I love Disney+. I'm a Star Wars and Marvel fan but since the addition of Starz it boosted my love, there's even more content for adults now that's worth it all round."

However, this same reviewer felt the service fell slightly short, commenting: "The only reason it didn't get five stars is Disney are not using their other brands in the subscription. If they did this, it could easily be the best subscription service ever, but there is much more content locked behind their own service."
Yet another glowing five-star review reads: "Good servers, good services, this nostalgia when watching old cartoons from TV. The subscription is really cheap compared to other streaming services."

Bridgerton star says fight training for acting roles helped her tackle phone snatcher
A Bridgerton star who successfully fought off a phone snatcher says fight training for acting roles helped her during the altercation. Genevieve Chenneour, 27, who plays Clara Livingston in the Netflix period drama, was waiting for a coffee at a Kensington branch of Joe and the Juice when 18-year-old Zacariah Boulares, of Fawns Manor Close, Feltham, snuck up behind her and grabbed her phone on 8 February. Speaking about the incident on This Morning on Thursday (12 June), Chenneour said that she has 'done a lot of fight training for work' and also revealed that she is an avid boxer. 'I think it was just an instinct', she said, describing the moment she retrieved the phone back from Boulares.

Lizzie McGuire star Jake Thomas is now unrecognizable as he reveals surprise career pivot
You may remember actor Jake Thomas for his role as Lizzie McGuire's mischievous little brother, Matt, on the hit 2001 Disney show - but it turns out that he's not so little anymore. The popular show ran on the Disney Channel for two seasons from 2001 to 2004 but he also reprised the role for the beloved 2003 film. He landed the role when he was just 11 years old. Now, aged 35, the actor looks a lot different from his days on Disney, but is still heavily involved in the business. Nowadays, Thomas is all grown-up. In an exclusive interview with FEMAIL, Thomas revealed what he's up to these days, and how his life has changed since being on the show all those years ago. After taking a bit of a break from acting to attend college, the star now resides in Los Angeles and is exploring a myriad of different projects. Fans might be surprised to know that the actor is now dedicating his focus to MindsEye, which is an action-adventure video game set in the near-future fictional desert city. Thomas provides both the voice and performance capture for character Marco Silva. 'This honestly is no different from on camera acting,' Thomas told of his new role. 'You have to use your imagination way more because you're on a small soundstage, and you just kind of have to imagine everything that's happening,' he continued. He said that his character, Silva, is one that you'll only be able to figure out by playing the game, as he's quite complex. 'Silva kind of runs the city without really running the city,' the Cory in the House actor said. 'All the cars are his own companies, all of the robots that are throughout the whole city are of his own companies, and he's a little bit of, I would say, maniacal a**hole, but you kind of have to play the game to find out if he's a good guy or a bad guy,' he shared. However, this is not his first foray into video games. 'The first video game I was in was probably 20 something years ago. It was a PlayStation two video game called Brave: The Search for Spirit Dancer, in which I played the title character,' he explained. 'But completely different experience, because that was me in a voiceover booth,' he continued. 'Really no reference to go off of for anything.' Thomas detailed that the technology nowadays is so advanced, especially as he worked on MindsEye. They had him wearing a helmet complete with two tiny cameras pointing at his face that tracked all of his facial movements, capturing every single detail from his performance. In addition to acting in MindsEye, Thomas is still pretty involved in the children's television world. 'I have been directing for commercials with a lot of Nickelodeon promos, toy commercials, stuff like that,' Thomas revealed to 'I kind of rely on my background as a as a child actor,' he said. 'I know what it's like to, you know, be a kid on set and make that a fun and enjoyable experience. It's really been a blessing.'Lizzie McGuire star Jake Thomas sports drastically different look as he reveals surprise career pivot Taking from his time on set as a kid, he wants to encourage an environment where the young talent can just have fun. Thomas said that nothing should ever be 'too serious' while on set. 'Have fun, keep attitudes great, and just make it a fun experience for the kids,' he said. 'It really doesn't have to be that complicated.' And as for the rest of the Lizzie McGuire cast? It's definitely a mixed bag as to what they're all up to. 'Everybody from the cast is really, kind of doing their own stuff, really just a wide spread of different things,' he shared. 'I mean, we've got lawyers, we've got people who are now just doing filmmaking and writing and then and singing and then real estate,' he continued. 'Everybody's doing a little bit of everything.'

BBC drama Mix Tape will have Netflix One Day fans hooked
New BBC drama Mix Tape is a perfect substitute for fans of Netflix's One Day - with a fate-driven love story as two lives take very different paths Romance lovers get ready as the BBC has just announced a brand new drama that promises to tug at the heartstrings of viewers. Titled Mix Tape, the four-part series sounds like the ideal watch for fans of hit Netflix show One Day, offering a similar emotional journey through love, time and second chances. The series has been adapted from Jane Sanderson's acclaimed novel of the same name, and the show is set to premiere on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer later this summer. With a story that spans decades and continents, it's already gaining widespread attraction, having picked up the TV Spotlight Audience Award at SXSW 2025. So, what can viewers expect from this highly anticipated series? What is Mix Tape about? The official synopsis reads: "The four-part series follows Daniel and Alison, moving between their teenage romance in 1989 Sheffield and the modern-day reality of their adult relationships living on opposite sides of the world." Much like the beloved characters Emma and Dex from One Day, Mix Tape explores a deep and emotional connection between two people who find their lives taking very different paths. But fate has other plans. The main characters Daniel and Alison are separated as they build completely different lives on opposite sides of the world with new partners. "The pair reconnect through a song from their shared past and explore their burning curiosity to understand if this is the love, and the life, they were meant to have," the synopsis continues. The series stars Teresa Palmer, known for her roles in The Clearing and The Fall Guy, as Alison and Jim Sturgess, known for his roles in Across The Universe and Cloud Atlas, as Daniel. Their younger selves are played by Bridgerton's Florence Hunt and new-comer Rory Walton-Smith - who will be playing his first mainstream role. The show was filmed in locations in Dublin, Ireland and Sydney, Australia, and the series promises a romance "packed with emotion" set against a fantastic soundtrack which will transport you back to the 80s. "Mix Tape will take viewers back in time to that intoxicating feeling of first love [and be] a classic all-encompassing romance set to a banging nostalgic soundtrack," producers told Variety. Sue Deeks, Head of BBC Programme Acquisition, said: "Accompanied by an absolutely cracking 80s soundtrack, Mix Tape is an enjoyable blend of nostalgia, romance and heartbreak – it really is the perfect summer treat!" Patrick Roberts, Senior Vice President of global sales at Boat Rocker Studios, added: "We're delighted by the strong response to Mix Tape we've received from the BBC and our other partners around the world and can't wait for audiences to discover this unique take on a modern love story." Mix Tape will be available to watch on BBC iPlayer and BBC Two later this summer.
