Furthermore, for ITVX, it is beneficial as some of their UK based shows will now be available to viewed by international audiences.
What's more, the "Taste of" sections will be regularly refreshed to ensure the hottest content is available.
The shows and movies are already available too.
The Real Winner
Here's the thing – if you look at who's getting the better deal, it's pretty clearly ITVX viewers.
Normally a Disney+ viewer would have to pay a subscription to watch some of these must-see shows, while ITVX viewers will be getting the content for free.
While Disney+ viewers are getting what ITVX customers already have for free. Still with us?
For ITV it means their content is going to be in front of Disney+ subscribers worldwide - with shows like Mr Bates vs The Post Office, it will surely be a hit with viewers.
Disney+ shows on ITVX
So far one movie has been added to ITVX, but it is a certified blockbuster!
Guardians of the Galaxy is one of Marvel's most beloved films, and sees Chris Pratt, Bradley Cooper and Box Office phenomenon Zoe Saldaña fight aliens in space.
Elsewhere, ITVX viewers can get hooked on season 1 of comedic actor Donald Glover's Atlanta and the Star Wars show Andor.
Reality TV fans will be also be pleased to know that they can immerse themselves in the world of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, detailing all the drama surrounding the Utah-based 'MomTok" influencers.
There's also something for the kids this summer holiday, as Phineas and Ferb also forms part of the agreement.

Coleen Rooney has the time of her life as she lifts son Cass, six, on to her shoulders at Together Again Festival
Coleen Rooney had the time of her life as she lifted her youngest son Cass on to her shoulders at Together Again Festival over the weekend. The WAG, 38, and three of her children, Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six, joined the crowd at the event held at Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire. The family enjoyed performances from Olly Murs, Jamie Webster and Dizzee Rascal, with Coleen seen singing away in the audience. Sharing a series of photos to Instagram on Monday, she gave an insight into their weekend and joined Jamie for photos backstage. She wrote: 'Thank you for looking after us Together Again Fest… fantastic set up!! 'And thanks for the photos and lovely to finally meet you Jamie Webster…. Kids had a ball. Elsewhere, Coleen's earnings have soared amid her huge TV projects as she looks set to become her family's 'main breadwinner '. The WAG reportedly boasts a net worth of £15million, with her hubby thought to be worth an enormous £170million thanks to his Premier League footballing days. But in the new phase of their lives, Coleen could be set to take over as the main breadwinner as her popularity soars. Amid her skyrocketing fame following her hugely successful I'm A Celeb stint, Disney announced on Monday a new premium access series titled The Rooneys focusing on her and Wayne's life. Thanks to her ventures, new figures for her firm, CWR 2021, up to September 2024 show the booming business already had £580,000 banked - and that was before I'm A Celeb and her Disney deal. Meanwhile former manager of Plymouth Arsenal Wayne was reportedly making £500,000, before leaving the club in December. A financial expert told The Sun: 'These earnings show that, even before Coleen signed up for I'm A Celeb, she was already bringing in more money than Wayne. 'On the back of her jungle stint, where she was incredibly popular with the viewing public, she's now likely to see her earnings soar even further - and the increased interest in Coleen after she did so well on the show is also likely to have sealed the deal on the Disney contract.' They added: 'Getting big bucks from a global streamer, plus her pay cheque from ITV, will no doubt swell the Rooneys coffers even further.' MailOnline has contacted Coleen's representatives for comment. In March, Coleen revealed that she has eclipsed Wayne in popularity after starring on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Coleen took part on last year's series of the ITV show where she finished as runner up to McFlyn's Danny Jones after winning over a huge number of fans. And the mother-of-four has explained that she now gets even more attention in public than her famous footballer husband. Speaking to The Mirror at an event in Manchester, Coleen admitted she was humbled by the 'positivity' of people coming up to chat to her about her time in the jungle. She said: 'I didn't realise how big the audience was. I get parents come up to me saying "aw, we got our family back together on the couch to watch it" and that's lovely to hear.' Not being able to resist making a brutal dig at her husband, she then joked: 'Even on school runs, Wayne has passed his sell by date so no one has got a clue [about him] But then all of a sudden we get kids going "oh Coleen Rooney!"' Speaking of her popularity, Disney announced on Monday that a new premium access series titled The Rooneys is set to air, and filming is already underway. The ten part doc-series will delve into the footballer and WAG's lives 'like we've never seen them before'. It is set to see Coleen tackle 'new entrepreneurial endeavours' and Wayne stepping away from the football pitch to do school runs. The new show has 'unprecedented access' into their world and dives into their everyday life, including highs like holidays and celebrations as well as the lows.

Avatar fans go wild as favorite character returns and 'steals the show'
Movie lovers have been left thrilled to see a fan-favorite character return in the latest Avatar installment. The first trailer for Avatar: Fire and Ash - director James Cameron 's third film in the franchise - was released by Disney earlier today. The film is scheduled for December 19 - three years after the second film, Avatar: The Way of Water, reached screens. The new trailer shows beloved characters making their return, including Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), his wife Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), their three children and a human boy known as Spider. However, it wasn't the main cast line-up that has caused excitement with fans. Instead, it was Payakan - a large marine whale-like species native to the oceans of Pandora known as a Tulkun - that caused a frenzy. Payakan formed a close bond with Jake's son Lo'ak in Avatar: The Way of Water. He was labeled as an outcast by his own species and the Metkaynia - water Na'vi - clan. The first trailer for Avatar: Fire and Ash - director James Cameron 's third film in the franchise - was released by Disney earlier today Despite resistance during the majority of the second film, the Na'vi eventually accepted him after helping in the final battle. And Avatar viewers, who immediately connected with the lovable rebel, were ecstatic to see his return. 'Glad they kept the whale buddy,' someone wrote on a Reddit thread about the new trailer. 'He was the MVP of the final battle in the last movie,' one person remarked. Another shared: 'In this house, we stan Payakan.' 'Payakan stole the show in The Way of Water, so it's only natural that he comes back,' a user declared. Others wrote, 'Aye. Payakan rules!' and 'Payakan is the best boy.' VFX supervisor and executive producer Richard Baneham told Empire in reference to Payakan: 'He's turned out to be one of the most popular characters.' He admitted the 'space whale' always had a role in the third film but that the emphasis has shifted due to his popularity. 'The reaction emboldened us to go forward and play Payakan at the very highest level,' he revealed. The executive producer also shared that Payakan now has a female Tulkun friend, Ta'nok, who is also an outcast, and that there will be a deeper insight into Tulkun societal structures. Not only will there be a deeper look at the sea creatures, but there will also be an introduction to a new Na'vi clan as well - the Ash People. 'You'll see a lot more Pandora that you never saw before,' Cameron said at the 2024 D23 Expo, per Variety. 'It's an insane adventure and a feast for the eyes, but it's also got very high emotional stakes, more than ever before. 'We're going into really challenging territory for all the characters you know and love.'

Emily Atack and Danny Dyer's new primetime ITV game show is revealed - and insiders say its premise is VERY familiar
Emily Atack and Danny Dyer 's new primetime ITV game show has been revealed, but its premise is raising eyebrows. It was revealed earlier this year that the pair, who both starred in the Disney+ hit Rivals, will front a Saturday night game show called Nobody's Fool. Bosses at the broadcaster brought in the pair in a bid to 'freshen up their entertainment talent', it was reported. The duo are reportedly set to receive a whopping £250,000 each for the gig, with the show expected to air next year. But similarities between Nobody's Fool and Rivals are said to have raised eyebrows behind the scenes. A source told The Sun: 'Rivals is the story of a web of rival individuals which is spun around a stately house, Penscombe Court, and their efforts to constantly outdo one another. 'That's exactly the basis for the new gameshow, which also has the background of a country pile and sees all the competitors try to outwit one another. 'Those in the know are already describing it as: "A game of intellect and deception" which could be the catchline for one of Jilly's novels.' MailOnline has contacted representatives for Danny and Emily for comment. Danny and Emily have been busy so far this year filming the second series of the smash-hit series, based on the racy books of Dame Jilly Cooper. Danny, who played pub landlord Mick Carter in EastEnders for almost a decade, is no stranger to game shows. The hardman previously hosted The Wall for the BBC, which ran for three series before ending in 2022 when Danny left EastEnders and the BBC. Mum-of-one Emily starred as a team captain on now-axed CelebJuice with Keith Lemon and Laura Whitmore. Danny recently revealed there is so much bonking in Rivals 2 – which is currently filming - that they have hired every intimacy coach in the UK. He said: 'We are doing 12 episodes of Rivals and we are filming until March next year. 'It is brilliant but it is a mad thing to do a sex scene. If you think about it you are legally allowed to tongue someone else. It is part of your job. Depending on your partner. It is OK if you fancy it, I am not going to lie.' He added: 'On Rivals there are a lot of intimacy coaches. I think we used every intimacy coach in the land.' In the smash hit Disney + show, based on the novel by Jilly Cooper, Danny played self-made businessman Freddie Jones who goes into business with Rupert Campbell-Black, played by Alex Hassell and Declan O'Hara played by Aidan Turner. In the show Jones falls in love with romance author Lizzie Vereker, played by actress Katherine Parkinson. The initial run was eight episodes but Disney + have asked for more this time around. Danny's performance as Jones has been hailed as bringing heart to the frothy, pulpy show, which has led to a reassessment of him as an actor, following his long-running stint in EastEnders. He was awarded a Bafta in May for his performance in Mr Bigstuff. He told Esquire magazine: 'People saw me in a different light[in Rivals], and it came out just after Mr. Bigstuff, which, for once, shows a bit of versatility, because Lee is so different to Freddie. 'I've made a lot mistakes over the years. I've said yes to a lot of jobs I probably shouldn't have, probably because I was driven by the dollar – I had bills to pay and kids in private schools. Now, I'm at a stage where I have loads of offers that I've got the power to say no to. I think I'll be defined by what I say no to, and it's really exciting for me.' On stage at the Baftas where he won the award to Best Male Performance in a Comedy he said: 'What a touch! Comedy performance. I thought my acting was so bad it was funny. I want to thank Sky for giving our show a shot. F***ing hell, I'm choked up. 'I got to dedicate this to (Mr Bigstuff writer) Ryan Sampson. One of the greatest things to come out of Rotherham. Which is not saying much. 'But one of the best actors this country's ever produced, I'm telling you. Never done the same thing twice. Which is not something I can say. He wrote this part for me, so you know... I'm getting choked up again, f**k me.'
