Disney+ Watch Party Option Might Roll Out In Time For ‘Mulan’ This Friday

Gizmodo says a reader clued them into “some source code on the Disney+ website that seems to point to a forthcoming feature titled Group Watch.” Gizmodo adds that the “groupwatch” appears “hundreds of times in javascript…on the landing page for the live-action Mulan.” This certainly sounds like Disney+ is going to roll out a watch party feature in time for the live-action Mulan, which is headed to the streaming service (for an extra premium price) this Friday, September 4.
Per reports, the Group Watch option will allow “multiple parties to stream a series or film simultaneously, presumably—as with other native watch party tools—only for people who also have an active Disney+ subscription.” The Group Watch player also supports emoji reactions, if that’s something you’re interested in, I guess. Feel free to let your emojis fly, kids.
