Disney plus has surpassed 50 million subscribers – up more than 22 million since last time Disney disclosed numbers two months ago. The last time the number was disclosed was two months earlier.

Disney plus’s new subscriber numbers follow a series of rollouts in international territories. The app was delayed due to government concerns that it would put too much strain on bandwidth.

Netflix has 167 million subscribers around the world. Hulu, Disney’s other streaming service, only operates in the United States. Disney is looking at an international rollout beginning in 2021.

‘this bodes well for our continued expansion throughout western Europe and into Japan and all of Latin America later this year,’ said Kevin Mayer, Disney’s head of direct-to-consumer.

Disney expects the majority of growth going forward to come from international subscribers. The falcon and the winter soldier is set to premiere in August, with wandavision in December, and the Mandalorian returning for a second season in October.
