Spring has sprung on Disney+! Next month, Disney’s hit streaming service is showering subscribers with new content, from original series to cinematic classics and everything in between. Who’s ready for a Disney movie marathon?

In April, Full House alum John Stamos returns to television in Big Shot, a sports dramedy from David E. Kelley (Big Little Lies) and Dean Lorey (Animal Crackers). Stamos stars as Coach Marvyn Korn, a hothead who loses his job in the NCAA and steps in as a coach at an all-girls high school. Coach Korn and his players initially clash over his leadership style, but they soon gel into a cohesive team, on and off the court.

After you’ve finished watching Big Shot — Disney+ will be rolling out new episodes weekly, so you’ll have plenty of time in between episodes — queue up a movie marathon with the many new movies on Disney+ next month, including Night at the Museum, Squanto: A Warrior’s Tale, and Rio. Plus, don’t miss the finale of Marvel’s next big hit, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier!

Nearly 30 years after first taking flight, “The Mighty Ducks” returns in a brand new chapter starring Lauren Graham and Emilio Estevez in the iconic role he originated as legendary Coach Gordon Bombay.

In the 10-episode season set in present day Minnesota, the Mighty Ducks have evolved from scrappy underdogs to an ultra-competitive, powerhouse youth hockey team. After 12-year-old Evan Morrow (Brady Noon) is unceremoniously cut from the Ducks, he and his mom, Alex (Lauren Graham), set out to build their own team of misfits to challenge the cutthroat, win-at-all-costs culture of youth sports today. With the help of Gordon Bombay, they rediscover the joys of playing just for love of the game.

Secrets of the Whales: Premiere

Epic, revealing and emotional, that’s what you get when immersed in the secretive world of whales and see life and love from their perspectives. From Academy Award-winning filmmaker and conservationist James Cameron, the Disney+ Original series SECRETS OF THE WHALES from National Geographic plunges viewers deep within the epicenter of whale culture to experience the extraordinary communication skills and intricate social structures of five different whale species: orcas, humpbacks, belugas, narwhals and sperm whales. Featuring the expansive knowledge and skill of acclaimed National Geographic Explorer and Photographer Brian Skerry, the four-part Earth Day special-event series unveils new science and technology to spotlight whales as they make lifelong friendships, teach clan heritage and traditions to their young, and grieve deeply for the loss of loved ones. Filmed over three years in 24 global locations, throughout this epic journey, we learn that whales are far more complex and more like us than ever imagined. This is a personal story that very few are lucky enough to witness … until now. SECRETS OF THE WHALES is narrated by award-winning actress and conservationist Sigourney Weaver (“Alien,” “Avatar,” “Gorillas in the Mist”) and scored by French composer Raphaelle Thibaut (“Maleficent: Mistress of Evil,” “The Act”).
