Disney+ is an online streaming platform launched by Disney on November 12, 2019, and it is growing its subscribers by leaps and bounds. Disney Plus will be built around film and television content from Disney's major entertainment industry companies, including Walt Disney Studios, Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, Marvel Studios and Lucasfilm.
So you can find Disney's Frozen, Alice in Wonderland, Pixar's Toy Story series, the entire Marvel Universe, Star Wars, and National Geographic documentaries on this stream platform.
If you can't find Disney+ on your Samsung TV, it means your TV model is not compatible with Disney Plus.
