New Disney Plus movies: every new film to stream in October 2024

The last of October’s new Disney Plus movies have joined the service and, perhaps surprisingly, it isn’t one of the spooky variety to coincide with Halloween – which, at the time of this article’s latest update, is right around the corner.

So, what’s joined Disney Plus‘ movie library this time around? Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band, a new docufilm that offers unprecedented access to The Boss and his beloved group of musicians as they tour the globe. It might not be top of many people’s must-see new movies watchlist, but we’re sure it’ll appeal to Springsteen fans.

If you’re not one of them, there are plenty of other recommendations to peruse below and in our best Disney Plus movies guide. No matter what type of film you enjoy, then, you’ll find something worth watching this weekend on one of the world’s best streaming services with our help.
