The SVOD service Disney+ has topped 100 million subscribers worldwide, according to Disney CEO Bob Chapek. He gave the figures at Disney's annual shareholders meeting. The platform added significant subscribers after its 23 February launch of the new Star content offering.
Chapek said Disney aims to maintain the strong growth with the release of over 100 new titles per year. "Our direct-to-consumer business is the company’s top priority, and our robust pipeline of content will continue to fuel its growth," he said.
Disney+ first launched in the US in November 2019, and has rolled out rapidly across Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Latin America, and most recently, Singapore. The company last reported 95 million subscribers for the service at the end of 2020.
