On Tuesday, the brand announced new and existing Verizon wireless unlimited customers, new Fios home internet and 5G home internet customers will be able to take advantage of the deal.

After the promotion ends, they will pay the regular $6.99 monthly subscription price unless they cancel.

Those who’ve already pre-ordered Disney Plus are still eligible. Their purchase will just be put on pause for a year.

"Giving Verizon customers an unprecedented offer and access to Disney+ on the platform of their choice is yet another example of our commitment to provide the best premium content available through key partnerships on behalf of our customers," Verizon Chairman and CEO Hans Vestberg said in a statement.

Verizon users can activate their Disney Plus account when the service launches on Nov. 12.

In the first year, the streaming platform will offer more than 25 original series and 10 original films and documentaries. There will also be tons of movies and shows available from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic and more.
