Disney is expected to release its own streaming service in late 2019. Their partnership with Netflix will end this year and the majority of Disney owned content will, supposedly, be transferred. There’s no official name or concrete release date but the monthly fee is said to be cheaper than Netflix’.
Disney CEO Bob Iger said in November 2017 that his company's service price will be "reflective of the fact that it will have substantially less volume" but plans to make up for it with high-quality programming from across its empire.

No word on how this will affect Hulu, since that’s majority owned by Disney after the FOX buyout.
Jon Favreau is developing a Star Wars series exclusively for the service. Expect theatrical Star Wars and Marvel releases from 2019 and forward to be found there as well.
Today it was announced that Marvel Studios will develop limited series for some of their characters as well, like Loki and Scarlet Witch. Coming directly from Kevin Feige and co., these shows are expected to bring back actors like Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen as well a feature more explicit continuity with their cinematic outings than Netflix’ own or Agents of SHIELD ever did.
