Marvel continues to triumph in Disney Plus. The premiere of 'Falcon and the Winter Soldier' is already the most successful in the history of the platform.
Falcon and the Winter Soldier started their way on Disney Plus in the best possible way. According to data from the Mickey Mouse company, the first episode has been the most-watched in the platform's history during the weekend of its premiere. Thus, Falcon and the Winter Soldier is the most successful starter of Disney Plus. New from Marvel had no trouble beating two other giants: WandaVision and The Mandalorian.
Likewise, Disney ensures that the first chapter of Falcon and the Winter Soldier became the most viewed content worldwide between Friday, March 19 and Sunday, 22. This data, of course, exposes the current potential of Disney Plus against other streaming video services. Original series and movies are a linchpin on any platform, and those directed by Mickey have titles to spare.
Becoming the most viewed content last weekend is not a minor situation. The reason? Last Thursday was released Snyder Cut the Justice League and, because of its long duration (4 hours), many people waited for the weekend to enjoy it. However, not even the anticipation for the Zack Snyder footage was enough to overshadow Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
Falcon and the Winter Soldier follows in the wake of The Mandalorian and WandaVision's success
On the other hand, we must emphasize that Disney Plus is dominating the video sector in terms of the popularity of productions. In October 2020 they premiered the second season of The Mandalorian, which remained the most popular series in the world until December - when the final episode aired. Soon after, in January, WandaVision made its debut on the service and was the most-watched series globally until the beginning of March.
Falcon and the Winter Soldier intends to repeat the same achievements of their "sister" series, and after the successful premiere, there is no doubt that they will succeed. If Disney Plus maintains the rhythm throughout the year, it will be difficult for another service to steal the spotlight from its exclusive series. Their bet on original content allowed them to reach 100 million subscribers a couple of weeks ago.
