Overview
- A deal announced Tuesday between Disney+ and Rai Com, the broadcaster’s sales arm, will bring a selection of Rai programs to Disney+ in Italy.
- Belve, the talk show hosted by Francesca Fagnani, and The Floor – Ne Rimarrà Solo Uno will stream on Disney+ the day after they air on Rai 2.
- Disney+ will also add past Rai hits including Braccialetti rossi, Mina Settembre, My Brilliant Friend, Un passo dal cielo, Màkari, and the docu-reality Il Collegio in a dedicated collection.
- The slate is meant to sit alongside existing Rai titles on Disney+ and the service’s Italian originals such as The Lions of Sicily and The Ignorant Angels.
- This agreement follows recent tie-ups with Europe’s public broadcasters, including RTVE in Spain, ARD and ZDF in Germany, SIC in Portugal, and ITVX in the U.K., to deepen local catalogs and reach viewers who prefer on-demand access.
