Everything Coming to Disney+ in April 2020
It’s the halfway point of the month which means streaming services are starting to unveil what users can expect next month. Disney+ has revealed their plans for April, and I’ll admit, I’m a little underwhelmed. I don’t recognize any of the older content making its way to the service. There are still some staples from my childhood that I’m waiting to make their way, but I guess I just have to keep waiting. Without further ado, here’s what you can look forward to:
