Disney Classics

Disney Classics is an upcoming American digital cable and satellite television network that is owned by the Disney Channels Worldwide division of Disney-ABC Television Group, a wholly-owned division of The Walt Disney Company. Aimed mainly at family audiences, its programming consists of original first-run documentary and scripted television series, theatrically released movies, and reruns of classic television series from the company's television library.

It has been dubbed by many news agencies as a cross between the Hallmark Channel and Turner Classic Movies. The channel is set to launch on June 17, 2018 in honor of Disney's 95th anniversary, replacing FX Movie Channel.
