at Walt disney (WKN: 855686) and Disney +, the new stock market year 2022 is all about one thing: success in the streaming segment. The US media and leisure group is working on the turnaround in the theme parks even after the pandemic. But streaming services are and will remain a solid growth driver in the long term.
Content is of course an important currency in this segment of Walt Disney and especially Disney +. The management of the US company is not only investing around 33 billion US dollars in content this year. No, but can also post significant content in the months of January and May. The focus is on the Star Wars universe. Possibly an important indicator for further growth, let’s see what comes.
Walt Disney & Disney + in January: Boba Fett in focus!
A series that fans have been waiting for a long time will start at Walt Disney and Disney + as early as the beginning of January and thus directly in the New Year: The Book of Boba Fett. This is a bounty hunter from the Star Wars universe who played a smaller role in the older films. Among other things as the one who handed Han Solo over and fell into an omnivore. Maybe you know who it’s about
Either way: Investors should just know that Star Wars and unplugs from the universe will continue at this point. The management here has a top-class content cracker from this franchise. That should tie many fans to the platform. Or maybe bring back to see this format.
The management of Walt Disney is also relying on the success of The Mandalorian, with the series more or less connected. In any case, the respective protagonists are similar in appearance.
In May: News from the newer heroes
In May, however, the Star Wars content drop, which is likely to be larger this year, is due. Walt Disney is scheduled to release Kenobi on May 3rd this year. The content is about the well-known Jedi, played again by Ewan McGregor, and the Jedi’s time on Tatooine, where the Jedi takes care of the even smaller Luke Skywalker. Probably a big gap for fans, some of which will be closed here.
In terms of content, it has also been leaked that there will be a reunion with Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader. This will probably give Star Wars fans what they have been waiting for a long time: A certain continuation of the plot in the actual main universe of the franchise.
In any case, we see: Walt Disney has a lot of possibilities with Star Wars alone to attract consumer interest through additional content. In any case, there will be a decent content drop from this franchise in 2022. In case of doubt, what this brings for user development must be found in the respective quarterly figures.
