NOW critics pick the best new movies and TV shows coming to Disney+ Canada in March 2021.
The Falcon And The Winter Soldier
Once WandaVision wraps up this month, Marvel fans will have to find something new to obsess over and/or complain about. Fortunately, there’s another miniseries coming right up – one that puts Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan’s Captain America sidekicks together for a globe-spanning buddy movie that may or may not find the pair teaming up to take on a hero-hunting movement spawned by Daniel Brühl’s Civil War villain Zemo. All we know for sure is that veteran director Kari Skogland helms all six episodes, Emily VanCamp reprises her role as former SHIELD specialist Sharon Carter and Wyatt Russell is around, but probably not playing the son of his dad’s character from Guardians Of The Galaxy, Vol 2. That’d be too much of a stretch. March 19
Raya And The Last Dragon
With movie theatres still in a grey zone as far as capacity and operation, Disney is making its latest animated feature – starring Star Wars’ Kelly Marie Tran as a young woman in a ravaged land searching for the mystical stones that will end an ancient plague and restore her people – available to stream at home via the same “premier access” arrangement offered when it released the Mulan remake to the service last summer. And if the $34.99 sticker price seems a little steep, remember: Mulan turned up on the standard Disney+ library just three months later. March 5
Jane
Brett Morgen’s documentary profile of Jane Goodall was received on the festival circuit in 2017 as a beautiful but problematic celebration of a woman whose landmark work as a primatologist changed the way humanity regards the apes who are our genetic cousins… even as it nudges the Africans who enabled her to do her work to the side, the better to burnish its subject’s legend. It’s a flawed tribute to a remarkable scientist, but the value of her work, and her subsequent activism, makes it worth a look. March 12
The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers
This was always going to happen, wasn’t it. Reboots are hotter than ever, Disney needs a constant flow of new programming, and there’s an actual NHL team out there keeping this particular franchise highly visible. And so, 25 years after we last saw Gordon Bombay and his ragtag teens in D3: The Mighty Ducks, here is a brand-new television series following a new kid (Brady Noon) whose mother (Lauren Graham) sets out to build her own squad of outsiders – and enlisting Emilio Estevez’s older but not necessarily wiser Bombay to help. Original creator Steven Brill is also on board, in case you were worried they’d just hand this off to some rookie. March 26
