The animated series adaptation of “The Supernatural Academy” books by Jaymin Eve has been ordered at Peacock, Variety has learned exclusively.
Variety originally reported the series was in the works from 41 Entertainment back in October 2019. The half-hour series will debut on Peacock on Jan. 20, 2022. The first season will consist of 16 episodes.
Like the books, the show chronicles an otherworldly adventure of sisters marked at birth. One twin sister was raised in the Supernatural world, confident and popular. The other was raised in the human world, an offbeat outsider. Now they’re about to be reunited at the Supernatural Academy, and neither one of them is thrilled about it. These adversarial twins will have to learn to get over their differences and trust each other in order to save themselves and save the world.

As we head into the weekend before Halloween, the various major streaming services are offering up a load of great new content to keep you occupied. To be honest, this weekend’s haul isn’t one of the largest, with HBO Max, Hulu and Prime Video’s new additions being pretty thin on the ground, but at least Netflix and Disney Plus are bringing us a decent batch of movies and TV shows to keep you going until Monday.
The latter, for instance, delivers 11 new titles today, including new episodes of The Right Stuff, Weird but True and One Day at Disney and whole seasons of a couple of National Geographic docuseries. But the highlight of the load has to be Frozen spinoff Once Upon a Snowman, a new short film starring Josh Gad as Olaf that explores what happened to the loveable carrot-nosed critter following his creation during the first movie.

Disney Plus has had a pretty good month so far, offering subscribers everything from brand new original shows and movies to classic films that have certainly added even more nostalgia to a service already teeming with it. The original flick Clouds has provided a dose of inspiration for viewers to absorb, while the addition of beloved movies like Angelina Jolie’s Maleficent, the mutant sequel X2, and ensemble comedy Cheaper by the Dozen 2 has kept everyone busy while they wait for October’s biggest release.
That’s right – we all know season 2 of The Mandalorian is probably all that’s on your mind these days, but you’ve still got to hold on until October 30th for the premiere episode. While you continue to sit patiently, though, waiting to see Baby Yoda in an adorable pouch sling – no, really, go look at how cute that is – today’s Disney...

Though Disney Plus may not offer the volume of fresh content that typically comes to Netflix and Hulu each month, fans of the Mouse House are usually treated to some genuinely exciting stuff that ranges from classic movies and shows to brand new Disney Plus Originals. This month has been no different, of course, with the addition of such hits as Angelina Jolie’s fantasy flick Maleficent, season 31 of the beloved show The Simpsons and an inspirational true story in the form of the original film Clouds.
Of course, you’ll want to keep looking forward, too, as Disney Plus will be premiering the first episode of the second season of The Mandalorian in just a few weeks. It’s no secret that the series ranks #1 as the most anticipated returning show, and its sophomore season is almost certain to be just as exciting – if not more so – than its incredibly well-received first outing.

Back in November of 2019 (which seems like a lifetime ago), Disney+ launched with what would become its premier title: The Mandalorian. Now here we are just under a year later and it’s finally time for the next installment of Disney+’s Star Wars journey.
The Mandalorian season 2 arrives on Oct. 30 and is the biggest ticket item on Disney+ this month and perhaps is the biggest ticket item in all the streaming world. Rest assured that the itty bitty Baby Yoda will be returning once again. And be sure to catch up all the other secrets the trailer holds here.
In addition to Mando, Disney+ is brining another major original series to its stream this month. The Right Stuff, based on on the 1979 book of the same name about the NASA space program, will be arriving on Oct. 9 and debuting new episodes throughout the month.

After successfully bringing movie theater fare like Artemis Fowl and Hamilton to the smaller screen, Disney+ is going to attempt its most ambitious movie streaming experiment yet in September.
Disney+’s list of new releases for September 2020 is highlighted by the inclusion of Mulan.

In addition to that big swing, Disney+ is has some other intriguing originals set for September. Alien talk show series Earth to Ned premieres on September 4 and the LeBron James-produced reality series Becoming arrives on September 18.

The full line-up of everything that’s coming to Disney Plus next month has been revealed. September will prove to be a hugely important one for the streaming service, too, thanks to the release of Mulan. Dropping on the first Friday of the month, the live-action remake of the classic animated movie is breaking the mold by going up on D+ alongside a limited theatrical release. As you probably know, though, you’ll have to fork out an additional $30 to watch it, as part of a new Premier Access level to the site.
Mulan is the most headline-grabbing addition to the service next month, then, but there’s plenty more besides that coming to D+ in September. Including a few classic Disney movies, a bunch of others inherited from Fox, various National Geographic documentaries and much more.
