It’s Friday and that means its time for some new additions to Disney+.  With today seeing Pixar’s Coco added to Disney+ in the US and Canada, making it one of the first big additions to the Disney+ back catalog since the streaming platform launched.

Coco has been available on Netflix for the past 18 months, but was removed today.  This is the first Disney film to be removed from Netflix since Disney+ launched.

It should also be worth noting that Coco has been available in other regions such as the Netherlands and Australia.  This is due to different licensing issues.

Despite his family’s baffling generations-old ban on music, Miguel dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz. Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events. Along the way, he meets charming trickster Hector, and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel’s family history.
