All the new Disney Plus movies and shows streaming in May 2022
Everything new on Disney Plus this May
There's a lot of new stuff coming to Disney Plus in May, with brand new movies and shows aplenty. Most excitingly (in our opinion), the Obi-Wan Kenobi series is arriving on May 27, which sees Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen return as Obi-Wan and Darth Vader for the first time since the prequel movies.
There's also Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers, a new movie featuring the classic characters and the voices of Andy Samberg and John Mulaney, as well as a peek behind the scenes at the MCU with a new installment of Marvel Studios: Assembled focused on Moon Knight.
Over in the UK, viewers will be able to watch shows like the first two seasons of American Crime Story and comedy spin-off How I Met Your Father, as well as new series Pistol from director Danny Boyle about the Sex Pistols' rise to fame. Read on to find out all the new movies and shows coming to Disney Plus this May, with our three biggest highlights at the top.
Marvel Studios: Assembled – The Making of Moon Knight – May 11
Moon Knight may be coming to an end this month, but we don't have to say goodbye to Oscar Isaac's British accent just yet – you can go behind the scenes of the MCU show with the latest installment of Marvel Studios: Assembled. If it's anything like previous episodes on WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, and Hawkeye, we can expect an hour's worth of exclusive on-set footage to give us the lowdown on how Disney filmed all the series' action-packed scenes.
Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers – May 20
Chip 'n' Dale are back, and they've had a makeover. Or Dale (voiced by Andy Samberg) has, at least – he's had "CGI surgery" and is attempting to relive his glory days as part of the Rescue Rangers, while Chip (voiced by John Mulaney) is working as an insurance salesman. However, when an old friend goes missing, the pair must reunite once more to save him. The movie also features the voices of Will Arnett, KiKi Layne, Seth Rogen, and J.K. Simmons.
Obi-Wan Kenobi – May 27
Hello there – Obi-Wan returns, and this time he's on the small screen. Set 10 years after Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, Obi-Wan Kenobi sees McGregor reprise his role as the titular Jedi Master for the first time since the 2005 movie. The series will also see the return of Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader, while Joel Edgerton, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, and Benny Safdie round out the cast. You can check out some exclusive images from the series here.
