28 August 2025

Disney+ has today announced that critically acclaimed crime drama “High Potential” will be returning to the platform on 17th September 2025 in the UK and Ireland.

“High Potential” follows a single mom with an exceptional mind, whose unconventional knack for solving crimes leads to an unusual and unstoppable partnership with a by-the-book seasoned detective. 

Based on the popular French series “Haut Potentiel Intellectuel (HPI),” “High Potential” stars Kaitlin Olson as Morgan, Daniel Sunjata as Karadec, Javicia Leslie as Daphne, Deniz Akdeniz as Lev “Oz” Ozdil, Amirah J as Ava, Matthew Lamb as Elliot and Judy Reyes as Selena. Season 2 will also see Steve Howey join the cast as a series regular, playing Nick Wagner.

20th Television produces “High Potential.” Drew Goddard and Sarah Esberg of Goddard Textiles, showrunner Todd Harthan, along with Marc Halsey and Kaitlin Olson serve as executive producers.

Disney+ is available from £4.99 per month – with no hidden costs and the ability to cancel anytime. There’s something for everyone to watch, adding new TV series, blockbuster movies and exclusive Originals throughout the year under its six brands: Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, and Star. With a library of entertainment spanning everything from documentaries to critically acclaimed drama, and comedy to classic animation. Customers can enjoy anything from  “Tell Me Lies” or “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives”, to “Grey’s Anatomy” or “In Vogue: The 90s”.

Robust parental controls ensure that Disney+ remains a suitable viewing experience for everyone in the family. Subscribers can set access limits on mature content and create PIN-protected profiles alongside the already existing Junior Mode profiles to give parents and guardians peace of mind.
