For weeks at a time, the charismatic BAFTA Award-winning cinematographer immerses himself in the animals’ lives to capture the untold stories of iconic creatures living in some of the harshest environments on our planet.

In this multipart adventure series, he will take audiences on an ambitious odyssey across the globe, showcasing the natural world at a time when it faces its greatest challenges.
Growing Up – Premiere – All Episodes Streaming
Created by Brie Larson and Culture House, “Growing Up” is an innovative hybrid docu-series that explores the challenges, triumphs, and complexities of adolescence through ten compelling coming-of-age stories. The series uses narrative, experimental, and documentary filmmaking to follow one cast individual, ages 18-22, as they tell their story.
They represent a wide range of lived experiences, giving audiences emotionally powerful narratives that offer an engaging look at teenage-hood and the diverse social, familial, and internal obstacles young people face on their path to self-discovery and acceptance. Each 30-minute episode features one young person, or “hero,” and their experience growing up.
Each episode is anchored by a deeply personal interview that allows our heroes to walk us through their childhood and teenage years. Alongside these interviews, creative cinematic reenactments help bring their major inflection points to life.
Marvel Studios Assembled: The Making of Thor: Love and Thunder – Premiere
Settle in with the likes of Taika Waititi, Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, and Tessa Thompson as they divulge the secrets behind the creation of Thor: Love and Thunder.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return – Premiere
With never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes footage, colorful personal stories, and meaningful moments, “Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return” showcases the making of Lucasfilm’s original limited series for Disney+, “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” an epic story that begins ten years after the dramatic events of “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.”
This insightful documentary from Lucasfilm and Supper Club explores the return of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker to the screen—and Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen to their respective classic roles.
Director Deborah Chow, cast, and crew reflect on their journey to tell a new story with iconic Star Wars characters Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and Princess Leia while introducing new heroes and villains into the saga along the way.
Complete with visits to the creature shop, props department, and more, “Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return” features the side of filmmaking that makes Star Wars so unique—the respect and passion for the generation-spanning legacy and the beloved characters.
Pinocchio – Premiere
Academy Award winner Robert Zemeckis directs this live-action and CGI retelling of the beloved tale of a wooden puppet who embarks on a thrilling adventure to become a real boy.

A Disney+ Day premiere, “Pinocchio,” will launch on September 8, 2022, exclusively on Disney+.
Remembering – Premiere
Where do ideas come from? And where do they go when they’re forgotten? These central questions are brought to life in “Remembering”, an original short film by Emmy-winning director Elijah Allan-Blitz. The story follows a writer (played by Academy Award winner Brie Larson) who loses a very important idea when her phone rings.
Personified as a golden light, this lost idea is found by the writer’s inner child, who takes it on a journey through The World of Imagination. It is easy to lose touch with this world, but each of us can be inspired by it if we just remember.
With a first-of-its-kind companion Augmented Reality app, Disney+ subscribers can interact with the story by scanning the TV at disney.com/Remembering to extend The World of Imagination into their living room.
