Disney+ Doubles Down on Polish Content with Breslau Renewal and Two New Shows
Disney+ is making a significant push into the Polish market, renewing the popular drama series Breslau for a second season and ordering two new shows. This move comes as the streaming giant continues to expand its global content offerings, with a particular focus on local and international productions.
Breslau, which follows the story of Franz Podolsky, a man who is dragged into an investigation of a murdered woman connected to a case he failed to solve years ago, has been a standout hit for Disney+ in Poland. The show’s second season will continue to follow Podolsky’s journey, with a talented cast including Tomasz Schuchardt, Adam Bobik, Agata Kulesza, Ireneusz Czop, and Przemysław Bluszcz.
Disney+ Poland has also greenlit two new shows: Everything Under Control, a comedy-drama centered on a young woman’s self-improvement plan, and The Game, a thriller produced by Aurum Film. The latter follows a group of strangers who find themselves in a fight for survival after an unexpected danger arises in the middle of a forest.
According to Angela Jain, Head of Content, Disney+ EMEA, the streaming giant is committed to supporting local content creators and meeting local audience demand. ‘We strongly believe in the Polish market, and the opportunity for local content to play a significant role,’ Jain said. ‘These newly commissioned titles will perfectly complement our global offering, while meeting local audience demand. It’s inspiring to be working with an incredible lineup of Polish creative talent, who are widely recognised within the industry for cinematographic creativity and excellence.’
This move is part of a larger effort by Disney+ to invest in local content, with Jain handed an increased budget to support this initiative. The streaming giant has been competing with rival Netflix in the EMEA region, with both companies vying for market share and talent.
