Netflix has taken its relationship with Disney one step further by picking up the US rights to a total of five Disney Junior and Disney XD shows, including Jake and the Never Land Pirates.
The new multi-year licensing agreement makes Netflix the exclusive US subscription TV service for Jake and the Never Land Pirates and Disney XD’s Tron: Uprising, which are now available on the service. In addition, Handy Manny, Special Agent Oso and JoJo’s Circus will also be available to US subscribers later this month.
Disney and Netflix made headlines last December following a first-run agreement that allowed feature films from Disney, Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, Marvel Studios and Disneynature available to Netflix members shortly after they leave theaters.
