Finally! Disney+ will be releasing its Marvel and Star Wars content on physical media next month!
Kicking off with WandaVision, Loki season 1 and the first two seasons of The Mandalorian, as of now, it looks like these releases are for the US only and will be steelbook releases but we’re hoping that they’re a tester to see if there’s a desire for these to go on a much wider release.
While I love having my Star Wars – and Marvel – content on demand, I am also a big collector of physical media and I’ve been hoping this would be a thing for some time now… but I’m disappointed it didn’t start with the final season of Clone Wars.
As for the future, world is that Disney are already hinting more releases down the line, I just hope they get a wider release as the price of these releases will make them just as unattainable for many as they were when they didn’t exist.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
