From the massive catalog that includes Disney classics, Star Wars, and Marvel, there is never a shortage of great shows to watch on Disney+. The platform was seen as a big step forward for the massive Disney studio as it was now able to explore some of its biggest franchises within television format while also being a place where fans could check out some of their old Disney favorites that might not be as readily available on other streaming platforms.
One of the most popular titles on Disney+ in April 2025 will be Daredevil: Born Again. Having Matt Murdoch headline an MCU project has been a long-awaited event for many years and the new series has been off to a great start after debuting in March. Of course, the return of Andor for season 2 is a highly anticipated event for April and with Thunderbolts* on the horizon, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier could be a good refresher. The recent return of shows like Family Guy and The Simpsons also ensures new episodes for fans to enjoy in April.
