From the highly-anticipated Peter Pan & Wendy to a brand-new series starring the MCU’s Jeremy Renner, Rennervations — there’s something on the way for everyone.

So buckle up and get ready; here are our Top Five picks set to land on Disney+ in April 2023.

1. The Crossover: Season One

Release date: April 5

Official Synopsis: The Crossover, based on the bestselling novel by Kwame Alexander, follows twin middle school basketball phenoms Jordan “J.B” and Josh “Filthy” Bell as they struggle with growing up, growing apart, and finding themselves — on and off the court.

Filthy is a laser-focused athlete, determined to be the next Lebron James. His brother and best friend, J.B., has always dutifully followed along with the plan. But when new girl Alexis comes to town and J.B.’s interest in basketball starts to wane, tension starts to brew between the brothers — threatening to break their lifelong bond.

2. Tiny Beautiful Things: Season 1

Release date: April 7

Official Synopsis: Based on the best-selling collection by Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things follows Clare (Kathryn Hahn), a floundering writer who becomes a revered advice columnist while her own life is falling apart.

When we first meet Clare, her marriage to her husband Danny is barely limping along; her teenage daughter, Rae, is pushing her away; and her once-promising writing career is non-existent.

So when an old writing pal asks her to take over as the advice columnist Dear Sugar, she thinks she has no business giving anyone advice.

After reluctantly taking on the mantle of Sugar however, Clare’s life unfurls in a complex fabric of memory, exploring her most pivotal moments from childhood through present day, and excavating the beauty, struggle, and humour in her unhealed wounds.

Through Sugar, Clare forms a salve for her readers – and for herself – to show us that we are not beyond rescue, that our stories can ultimately save us. And, perhaps, bring us back home.

3. Rennervations: Season One

Release date: April 12

Official Synopsis: Rennervations is an original four-part series that embraces Renner’s lifelong passion to give back to communities around the world by reimagining unique purpose-built vehicles to meet a community’s needs. Every build has a purpose.

Behind the big screen, Renner is a construction veteran with a passion for purchasing and re-imagining huge vehicles with the help of his connections in the worldwide fabricator culture.

With his best friend and business partner, Rory Millikin, and an all-star build crew, Renner travels the globe to reimagine decommissioned vehicles and rebuild them to serve a new purpose, such as turning a tour bus into a mobile music studio, a delivery truck into a mobile water treatment facility, a shuttle bus into a mobile recreation centre, and a city bus into a mobile dance studio.

4. Matildas: The World at Our Feet

Release date: April 26

Official Synopsis: The inspirational and intimate behind-the-scenes story of the Matildas – Australia’s women’s national football team.

The Matildas (Sam Kerr, Ellie Carpenter, Mary Fowler and more) reveal the sacrifices they’ve made and struggles they’ve endured to become number one in the world’s most popular sport.

Despite all their hardships, one goal follows them throughout – to leave a lasting legacy and inspire future generations to pursue their dreams.

Across six episodes, we follow the players on and off the field as they work towards their biggest challenge yet – the 2023 World Cup on home soil.

5. Peter Pan & Wendy

Release date: April 28

Official Synopsis: Directed by David Lowery, Peter Pan & Wendy introduces Wendy Darling, a young girl afraid to leave her childhood home behind, who meets Peter Pan, a boy who refuses to grow up.
