While this show has been created by ABC, it’s possible that this series could be coming to Disney+ in other countries as a “Star Original”. However, at the moment it’s unclear of the international distribution of the show since Sony Pictures TV are co-sharing the production. Disney works with Sony on a variety of other shows including “The Good Doctor” and “The Goldbergs”, so “Rebel” could be distributed by Sony internationally.
