Disney XD is a defunct Southeast Asian pay television channel owned by The Walt Disney Company (Southeast Asia) Pte. Ltd., and part of the Disney Branded Television division of Walt Disney Television in the United States. Following Disney's acquisition of 21st Century Fox in 2019, the channel was operated by Fox Networks Group Asia Pacific. Aimed primarily at children aged 6 to 15, it featured a lineup that included Marvel and Star Wars series, reruns of shows previously aired on Disney Channel, various action series, and some preschool programming from Disney Junior.
