We all know that Disney Plus is the hub for Disney content, new and old, along with Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar and National Geographic. Beyond its familiar classics, the platform adds a steady stream of new movies and shows each month, including original series, Disney Jr. titles, Nat Geo documentaries and older library additions such as sitcoms, reality shows and films.
This month, there are lots of movies arriving on Disney Plus, including the streaming premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash on June 24, the debut of a new Hamilton documentary and the director’s cut of The X-Files: I Want To Believe. This month, you can also tune in to the entire four-day livestream of the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival from June 11-14 on Disney Plus, too.

Locker Diaries: Phineas and Ferb: Shorts is a series of vertically shot mini-episodes as seen through the POV inside a school locker. (You can also see Locker Diaries shorts for Zombies, too, and this vertical franchise could also possibly expand to other series in the future.) The first two Phineas and Ferb shorts drop on June 6.

The X-Files: I Want to Believe, Director’s Cut (2008)
Why watch: Mulder and Scully will always be the best TV couple.
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprised their roles as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully for 2008’s The X-Files: I Want To Believe, with the story picking up years after the two left the FBI and are brought back to consult on the mysterious disappearances of several young women, one of whom is an FBI agent. The movie was not a critical hit, but in 2025, X-Files writer and creator Chris Carter stated he planned to release a director’s cut on account of the fact that the theatrical release cut out a lot of the supernatural elements he wished to include. With this new release, Carter explains, it’s the “scary movie that I always intended to make.” The new version of the movie premieres on Disney Plus June 11.

Adventure Time: Side Quests
Why watch: You miss seeing the beloved pair on TV.
Sing it with me, “Adventure Time, come on grab your friends, we’ll go to very distant lands. Jake the dog and Finn the human…” The original series ended on Cartoon Network back in 2018, but new spinoffs have since dropped, focusing on characters other than Finn and Jake. In Adventure Time: Side Quests, the legendary duo return to take audiences on more zany journeys. PB, Ice King and other faves will show up, too, when the new series hits Disney Plus (and Hulu) on June 29.
