Here are 5 Award-Winning Movies You Can Watch on Disney+
1. Inside Out 2 – Already available to stream on Disney+
A Disney-Pixar coming-of-age film? Prepare to sob. This highly anticipated sequel follows a now-teenage Riley as she navigates life with some new emotions in the mix. Nominated for a BAFTA and an Academy Award, this is one sequel you won’t want to miss.
2. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes – Already available to stream on Disney+
The legend continues. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes delivers stunning visuals, high-stakes action, and a gripping story set in a world where apes rule. Nominated for a BAFTA and an Academy Award, this latest chapter is a must-watch for fans and newcomers alike.
3. Alien: Romulus – Already available to stream on Disney+
Alien: Romulus is making waves this award season, earning an Oscar nomination for Best Visual Effects, a Golden Globe nod for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, and winning Best Horror Film at the Saturn Awards.
Set in 2142, this sci-fi horror-thriller takes the franchise back to its terrifying roots as young colonists scavenging a derelict space station come face-to-face with the ultimate nightmare. With horror master Fede Álvarez at the helm and a stellar cast, this is one thrill ride you don’t want to miss.
4. A Complete Unknown – Coming to Disney+ soon
This very-nominated film belongs on your to-watch list, and it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe. Timothée Chalamet channels Bob Dylan in an electric performance – croaky voice and all.
With six BAFTA nods and eight Academy Award nominations, the answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind: it’s time to embrace the nostalgia.
5. A Real Pain – Already available to stream on Disney+
Do you love brilliantly quirky characters with curls and slightly high-pitched voices? Then you’re in luck. Jesse Eisenberg not only stars in this beautiful, hilarious, and deeply touching film – he also wrote and directed it. And very well, at that.
Nominated for two BAFTAs and two Academy Awards, it’s a must-watch. Oh, and Kieran Culkin? He’s already made history – becoming only the third actor after Jack Nicholson and Willem Dafoe to sweep the Big Four critics’ awards for a supporting role. Now, the Oscar might just be the cherry on top.
