Disney Plus’ gripping new murder-mystery series is your next streaming binge

Disney+ is set to launch a blockbuster series that’s gearing up to be your next streaming binge. While the House of Mouse’s streamer may be best known as the home of Marvel and Star Wars, it’s also the place to go for gripping series like Rivals and Only Murders in the Building.

Now it’s debuting a new series from the executive producer of Only Murders in the Building that’s packed with twists and turns and conspiracy woven throughout. Streaming later this month, Paradise is an eight-part murder-mystery thriller that promises watercooler moments in each instalment.

Its official synopsis reads: “Read between the lies. Paradise is set in an upscale community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquillity explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds. ”

As revealed in the series trailer, Xavier is the last person to see the president alive after being entrusted with top-secret national security information. This leads to intense scrutiny as he becomes embroiled in the investigation.

Paradise boasts some stellar talent in its cast, including Oscar-nominee Sterling K. Brown as Agent Xavier Collins, the president’s most trusted secret service agent. He stars alongside X-Men actor James Marsden as President Cal Bradford, the President of Paradise, and Mare of Easttown’s Julianne Nicholson as Samantha Redmond, a ‘political power player’ behind the scenes.

The series comes from creator and executive producer Dan Fogelman, the mind behind hit shows Only Murders in the Building and This is Us. It will debut on Disney+ on January 28 with the first three episodes, with new episodes dropping weekly.

A Disney+ membership now starts at £4. 99 for a monthly rolling subscription, but you can get the equivalent of two months free by paying for a year upfront on the Standard or Premium plan, bagging 12 months for the price of 10 and saving up to £25. 98. The Standard plan now costs £89. 90, while the Premium plan is £129. 90 and also includes higher video quality up to 4K UHD and HDR, plus the ability to stream on four devices simultaneously.

Elsewhere, Sky has launched a Sky Glass sale with £96 off its Sky Glass smart TVs. Prices now start at £27 per month – down from £29 – for a 4K QLED smart TV with hundreds of channels and streaming apps built in, with no need for a satellite dish or Sky box.

This includes more than 100 channels like Sky Atlantic, plus subscriptions to Netflix and Discovery+ completely free, providing access to hit shows like The Day of the Jackal, The Last of Us and Squid Game season two.
