Disney+ is the place to be for all things Disney, as well as properties owned by Disney such as Marvel and Star Wars. It’s the exclusive outlet for streaming movies from Pixar too, and the company has even secured broadcasting rights for other productions such as smash-hit award-winning Broadway musical Hamilton, and every episode of The Simpsons.

Raya and the Last Dragon tells the story of a lone warrior, Raya, voiced by Star Wars: The Last Jedi actress Kelly Marie Tran as she attempts to track down the last dragon in her world in a bid to stop the evil Druun. Fortunately, she’s assisted by her loyal pet pill bug companion, Tuk Tuk (voiced by Alan Tudyk) and she comes across the likes of Sisu, a goofy water dragon voiced by Awkwafina and so many more memorable characters. It’s a familiar yet charming tale of good versus evil and is Disney’s first movie to feature a predominantly Asian American cast. It also includes Disney’s first-ever Filipino-language song, titled Gaby, which means “guide” in English.

Like many movies at the moment, Raya and the Last Dragon was originally meant to be a theatrical release in late 2020 but due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Disney rescheduled its release until now so that it can enjoy a simultaneous Disney+ and theatrical rollout.

Thanks to that, this is the perfect time to sign up for Disney+ so you can see just how charming Raya and the Last Dragon is, as well as indulge in everything else Disney+ has to offer. We’ve already helped you out by looking at the best movies on Disney+ at the moment. Right now, Disney+ is just $7 per month or $70 per year, with Raya and the Last Dragon available on its Premier Access so it costs $30 until it’s made available to all subscribers on June 4.

The 8 Best Movies To Watch on Peacock Right Now

For a bit of a television history trivia, the original NBC peacock logo was first implemented in 1956 to highlight the network's new color programming. Even though it’s gone through numerous iterations since then, the network has stuck with the colorful bird, in one form or another, for going on six decades now.

It’s fitting, then, that Peacock is known most for its TV programming, highlighted by shows like The Office, its spinoff situational narrative Parks and Rec, and the self-mocking (and hilarious) 30 Rock. If you are on Peacock for the shows, however, don't overlook that the platform is also home to a number of great movies spanning cinema history.

Disney Plus is one of the absolute best streaming services and well worth the money. So, if you're wondering if you can get a free Disney Plus account, read on while we tell you what you need to know.
Can You Get a Free Disney Plus Account?
Okay, so there isn't a free Disney Plus account option. While some services may offer a free ad-supported plan with limited features, Disney Plus offers just the one plan -- $8 per month or $80 per year for all the Disney Plus you can watch. It's tremendous value but if you don't want or can't afford to pay then you're going to miss out on a free Disney Plus account. There isn't even a Disney Plus free trial anymore as Disney stopped those in 2021 after a hugely successful launch period.

However, there are some alternatives if you really don't want to pay, or at least pay extra for Disney Plus. At times, some other companies you may interact with offer free ways to watch Disney Plus. For instance, in November 2021, Amazon was offering a free six-month subscription to Disney Plus if you signed up to its Music Unlimited service. While that meant Disney Plus wasn't entirely free, you could enjoy Disney Plus on top of an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription. Ideal if you're looking to expand your streaming horizons for less. That offer has now ended but there are other options out there if you look around.
