The biggest title coming to Disney+ in May is the premiere of the next installment of Dr. Who—three episodes will be available on May 10, with new episodes dropping every Friday after that. This is the first season of the BBC show to launch on Disney+, and features the adventures of the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson).
In the Star Wars universe, you can catch the final episode of season three of Star Wars: The Bad Batch (May 1) and the premiere of Star Wars: Tales of the Empire (May 4), a six-episode Disney original series following Morgan Elsbeth and former Jedi Barriss Offee on their journey into the empire.
Weekly episodes of X-Men ’97 will continue on Wednesdays along with the premiere of Marvel Studios’ Assembled: The Making of X-Men ’97 (May 22).
On the documentary side, there’s also The Beach Boys (May 24), which goes behind the scenes with the history of the legendary pop band, and Jim Henson Idea Man (May 31), a Ron Howard film about the creator of classics Sesame Street and The Muppet Show.
