New to Disney+ in May 2022: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers, and More

May might just be the biggest month of 2022 for Star Wars fans on Disney+ as it will see the two-episode premiere of the long-awaited Obi-Wan Kenobi series.

Set between Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi will see the return of Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan and Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader. Following the two-episode premiere, episodes will debut each Wednesday.

For a bit more Star Wars goodness, Disney Gallery: The Book of Boba Fett will help fans celebrate Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You!) with a look into how The Book of Boba Fett was brought to life. May 4 will also see the arrival of Moon Knight‘s season one finale. A week later, Moon Knight will get its own behind-the-scenes feature in Marvel Studios: Assembled – The Making of Moon Knight.

Fans of Chip ‘n Dale will be happy to know that the most famous chipmunks in the world will be having a “comeback 30 years in the making” with Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers. Starring John Mulaney as Chip and Andy Samberg as Dale, this hybrid live-action/CG animated action-comedy will introduce a new generation to the hilarious duo.

Sneakerella will also make its way to Disney+ on May 13 and looks to be a “high-energy, music-driven movie that puts a contemporary twist on the ‘Cinderella’ fairy tale.” The film is set in the “avant-garde street-sneaker subculture of New York City” and stars Lexi Underwood, Kolton Stewart, John Salley, Chosen Jacobs, and more.
