Venom—Friday, May 12, on Disney+
Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) is a broken man after he loses everything, from his reporting job to his fiancée, Anne (Michelle Williams). Just when his life is at its lowest, he becomes host to an alien symbiote which results in extraordinary superpowers—transforming him into Venom. Will these powers be enough for this new lethal protector to defeat great evil forces, especially against the far stronger and more weaponized symbiote rival, Riot (Riz Ahmed)? The action-packed film—intended only for mature audiences—also stars Reid Scott, Jenny Slate, and Woody Harrelson.

Brave—Sunday, May 14, at 1:10 p.m. ET/PT on Freeform
Princess Merida (voiced by Kelly Macdonald) is determined to carve her own path in life. The aspiring archer and impetuous daughter of Queen Elinor (voiced by Emma Thompson) makes a reckless choice, defying an age-old custom sacred to uproarious lords of the lands. However, her actions have consequences and in turn unleash chaos in the kingdom. To remedy her mistake, Merida must harness all of her skills to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late… and in the process, discover the meaning of true bravery. The voice cast also includes Billy Connolly, Julie Walters, Robbie Coltrane, Craig Ferguson, John Ratzenberger, and Kevin McKidd.
BUNK’D: Learning the Ropes—Sunday, May 14, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Disney Channel
The hilarity continues at Camp Kikiwaka in this all-new episode.

The series also stars Miranda May, Mallory James Mahoney, and Luke Busey.
