I would definitely cancel Disney Plus and Paramount Plus this month — here's why
The start of a new month is a good time to take stock of streaming bills. There are so many streaming services now, and paying for all of them really adds up. In 2025, streaming costs are higher than ever. Americans now pay an average of $61 a month for streaming services, according to a Deloitte report — or a hefty $732 a year. Luckily, it's really easy to save money on streaming by churning services, which entails canceling and signing up again later when the big, buzzy shows return. In June 2005, I recommend canceling Disney Plus and Paramount Plus. We rate both services highly, but few major titles are debuting on either in the next month. While they have some interesting offerings, they're not in the "must see immediately" category. Here's why I think you should consider canceling Disney Plus and Paramount Plus this month. We know a lot of families depend on Disney Plus' library of kid-friendly movies and shows., but during the summer, your household may be able to get by without it. Kids will be too distracted by outdoor activities, camps and vacations to miss streaming "Frozen" for the 500th time. Now that "Andor" is over (sob), there's little on the service to appeal to adults. There's only one big new original debuting on Disney Plus in June and that's "Ironheart." The Marvel show sees Dominique Thorne reprising her role as Riri Williams from "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever." After the events of the movie, the MIT student returns home to Chicago, where she becomes entangled with the enigmatic Parker Robbins (Anthony Ramos) and discovers secrets that pit technology against magic. Though I, like several of my Tom's Guide colleagues, am feeling some Marvel fatigue, I'm actually looking forward to "Ironheart." I thought RiRi Williams brought a fresh spark to "Wakanda Forever." So, why would I cancel Disney Plus anyway? Well, the show doesn't premiere until nearly the end of the month: June 24. And after the first three episodes drop on that date, the other episodes will air weekly. I can absolutely wait until July to resubscribe to Disney Plus, then catch up on "Ironheart" and tune in for the last part of the season. And I'll have saved a little money without missing much. As for Paramount Plus, its June schedule is a desert when it comes to originals. "MobLand" is over and no Taylor Sheridan shows are in sight. The Tony Awards take place in June, but the ceremony is airing on CBS, which you can watch for free the old-fashioned way — with a TV antenna. Paramount Plus is our pick for classic movies and the service is welcoming more great films in June, including several "Indian Jones" movies and the "Godfather" movies. Yet, library content isn't enough for me to keep a subscription. Plus, most likely, those films will remain available on Paramount Plus next month. How much you can save by canceling Disney Plus and Paramount Plus depends on which plans you have. Disney Plus Basic (with ads) is $10 per month and Premium (ad-free) is $16. Meanwhile, Paramount Plus Essential is also $8 per month, and the Showtime tier (with the live CBS feed and Showtime content) is $13. So, you could save up to $29 a month if you cancel both. That may not sound like a lot, but it's not nothing, either. Churning streaming services throughout the year can save you a few hundred dollars. And with the prices of everything skyrocketing these days, every dollar counts.

Marvel's Ironheart Series Gets Stunning New Poster Ahead of Disney+ Release
With less than a month remaining in the premiere of , Marvel has come out to drop a brand new poster for the upcoming Disney+ series. The one-sheet showcases Riri Williams in a new Ironheart suit with features that mimic the iconic costume of Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man. Marvel Studios recently took to social media to share a new poster for its forthcoming Disney+ outing, Ironheart. The colorful promo art shared on X (formerly Twitter) looks like an amalgamation of multiple layers, highlighting half of Riri Williams' face, with a freshly introduced mask covering the other half. Set in the backdrop of what looks like William's hometown of Chicago, the image predominantly contains a palette of four colors, namely white, black, red, and gold. Here's the new Ironheart promo art: While the poster only teases a suit that Dominique Thorne's Riri Williams could don in the Ironheart series, it showcases a design that MCU fans have yet to witness on camera. Additionally, the poster features a tagline, 'Every dream has a cost,' which sets up the high-stakes adventure that the titular character will embark on. Taking place after the events of 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Ironheart will follow Williams' journey as she attempts to realize her ambition of inventing technological advancements, including her Iron Man-esque suits. However, along the way, she inadvertently crosses paths with the magical world of the MCU after encountering Anthony Ramos' Parker Robbins, also known as The Hood. In addition to Ramos and Thorne, the Ironheart series will feature the likes of Lyric Ross, Alden Ehrenreich, Regan Aliyah, Manny Montana, Matthew Elam, and Anji White in pivotal roles. The show has already had to endure a significant amount of controversies, with audiences lambasting its first official trailer and Ironheart's co-creator, Mike Deodato Jr., claiming that Marvel did not pay him for the Disney+ series. Regardless, the Ironheart series is on track to hit the small screens with a three-episode premiere on June 24, 2025. Originally reported by Apoorv Rastogi on SuperHeroHype.

From Le Bouchon to the lakefront: Shea Couleé's ultimate Chicago day
Chicago's drag queen superstar Shea Couleé is joining Trixie Mattel for her " Solid Pink Disco" DJ set and show at the Salt Shed on Thursday. Context: Couleé is arguably the most successful drag queen from Chicago, slaying "RuPaul's Drag Race" several times, including taking home the crown in All-Stars season 5 in 2020. Couleé has been performing drag since 2012 at legendary local clubs like Roscoe's and the now-closed Berlin. She's also a recording artist and a model. The latest: The entertainer has crossed over to scripted television, starring in "Abbott Elementary" and the upcoming Marvel series "Ironheart." What to watch for: Couleé is the scheduled opener tonight, but Mattel will most likely bring her "Drag Race" alum back onstage during her set. The bottom line: Couleé still lives here, so we reached out to get the beloved performer's perfect day in Chicago. 🥐 Breakfast: "I'm going to Lost Larson in Andersonville. I'm going to get a lavender latte, an almond croissant, and if I'm really feeling feisty, I'll add in one of their signature quiches." 🏋️♀️ Morning activity: "Normally, my routine is going to start with me getting up and going to the gym. I go to this fierce Queer gym called Cheetah Gym. Yes, it's very ferocious. After I read some emails, I'll give myself a little break to read or play some video games like Fortnite or Dead by Daylight." 🍕Lunch: "I'm going to keep it really simple and go to Pizza Lobo because I love their quickfire NYC-style thin crust pizzas and their Caesar salad is on another level. It's such a cute little lunch spot with picnic tables, self-service, and the food is amazing." 🛼 Afternoon activity: "Let's assume this is during the months with beautiful weather outside, so maybe I'll pop on my rollerblades and go blading down the lakefront path for some cute views of the city. My soundtrack will probably be my K-pop faves: Katseye, BLACKPINK, and LE SSERAFIM." 🥣 Dinner: "Let me go to Le Bouchon for some really amazing French onion soup. Their menu is always changing, so it's hard to know what to expect. Their potato and leek soup is also amazing."

New on Disney Plus in June 2025 — all the new must-watch movies and shows
Summer is nearly here, and Disney Plus is heating up with a new lineup of great movies and shows to celebrate. There's plenty to look forward to that's new on Disney Plus this June, especially if you're a Marvel fan. Yes, the much-anticipated new Marvel series "Ironheart" — which tells the origin story of genius teen engineer Riri Williams (played by Dominique Thorne) — will finally premiere on the streaming service with its first three episodes in June. And nature lovers will surely be wowed by a new documentary from a legendary British biologist and broadcaster: "Ocean with David Attenborough" explores both the beauty of the sea and the ways in which humans are depleting its riches. You can then jet upwards from underwater habitats to outer space itself via another gripping doc, "Sally," which chronicles the pioneering career of astronaut-physicist Sally Ride, the first American woman to blast off into space. So without further ado, let's dive into everything coming to Disney Plus in June 2025. The new live-action Marvel series from executive producer Ryan Coogler is set after the events of 2022's "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," where Marvel fans first met Riri Williams (Dominque Thorne), a genius MIT engineer who returns to her hometown of Chicago with goals of making her own Iron Man-inspired suit of armor. Her technological ambitions, however, get Riri entangled with Parker Robbins, also known as "The Hood" (Anthony Ramos), a charming yet mysterious figure with magical powers. Soon, Riri discovers secrets that will pit new tech against old magic. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Along with Williams and Ramos, the cast of the six-part "Ironheart" miniseries includes Lyric Ross as Riri's friend Natalie Washington; Alden Ehrenreich as Joe McGillicuddy; Matthew Elam as Xavier Washington; Anji White as Riri's mom; Manny Montana as Cousin John; and "RuPaul's Drag Race" star Shea Couleé as Slug. Stream on Disney Plus starting June 24 Who better to lead you through the depths of the planet's undersea habitats than the world's leading natural historian, whose new wildlife documentary "Ocean with David Attenborough" will draw on a lifetime of knowledge to reveal how Earth's vast, interconnected waterways can be restored. Though the visually stunning 95-minute nature film beautifully depicts how we're currently in the most significant age of ocean discovery, it also doesn't shy away from the fact that human interference is one of the sea's biggest challenges. But things are not without hope, the doc assures: Along with exposing those critical problems, Attenborough and Co. also declare that there's plenty of opportunity for marine life recovery and offer up actionable solutions that can ensure the protection of our most vital resource. Stream on Disney Plus starting June 8 Sally Ride became a national hero in June 1983 when she flew on the Space Shuttle Challenger on the STS-7 mission, becoming the first American woman and third woman ever to fly in space (after cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova in 1963 and Svetlana Savitskaya in 1982). But though that groundbreaking journey put Ride into history books, it didn't come without personal complications for the astronaut-physicist and her loved ones, a deeply personal story that is uncovered in the 2025 documentary film "Sally". Directed and produced by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Cristina Costantini, the doc reveals the secret romance and subsequent sacrifices between Ride and her life partner Tam O'Shaughnessy, whose relationship spanned 27 years until Sally's death in 2012 at age 61. The nearly two-hour film explores how Ride navigated sexism and homophobia within NASA and the public, while also revealing unknown and intimate details of the American icon's private life. - Pupstruction (S2, 6 episodes) - Phineas and Ferb (S2, 10 episodes) - Ocean with David Attenborough - SALLY - Frozen: The Hit Broadway Musical - Premiere - Ironheart (3 episodes) - Underdogs - Vibe Check
