Disney+ will launch a hybrid AVOD/SVOD service tier in late 2022 in the US and internationally in 2023. The new tier will be offered at a discount compared with the ad-free tier, a pricing structure widely accepted by US online video consumers. Moreover, incorporating Disney+ into the Disney–Hulu omnichannel advertising walled garden will enable Disney to strengthen its ad ecosystem and compete effectively.
