Globally, Disney+ has reached 152.1 million subscribers, as of July 2, 2022. This was noted prior to the August 10 investor call. The streaming service has grown 31% globally in the last year..

For the United States and Canada, Disney+ has 44.5 million subscribers--with the total for the service being 93.6 million around the globe. The remaining 58.4 million come from Disney+ Hotstar, which grew from 44.9 million since 2021.

In May, Disney announced it closed the quarter with 137.7 million Disney+ subscribers, so over the course of the past three months, the streaming service has gained an additional 14.4 million subscribers.

Disney continues to release original programming on a regular basis, with the last quarter seeing the entirety of Obi-Wan and Ms. Marvel, two original series taking place in the universes of Star Wars and Marvel, respectively.

ESPN+ has 22.8 million subscribers, up 53% in the past year. Hulu also saw growth, year-over-year.

In the upcoming months, Disney has a lot more coming to Disney+. Marvel's new show She-Hulk: Attorney at Law arrives on August 18 and the next Star Wars show Andor arrives on September 21. Recently, the Toy Story spinoff Lightyear also arrived on Disney+ as well, so there's always something high-profile arriving on the streaming service.
