Disney+ Removes Content and Raises Prices: What Does This Mean for Investors?

Disney+ will remove select content to cut costs and focus on quality content, which may include impairment charges of up to $1.8 billion. However, it is unlikely that any Marvel Studios' shows and films will be dropped as they are some of the highest-viewed content on the platform and contribute significantly to Disney's bottom line. Disney CEO Bob Iger's initiative of aiming for less content in exchange for higher quality has already impacted the MCU's 2023 slate, with only Secret Invasion and Loki Season 2 confirmed to release on Disney+ in 2023.
