When is The Little Mermaid remake on Disney Plus?
Is The Little Mermaid live-action remake streaming? The Disney movie had a successful run at the box office, but for those wanting to watch it at home, here’s when to expect it to drop on Disney Plus.
The House of Mouse produced its first live-action do-over with 2010’s Alice in Wonderland, a critical flop that somehow became one ofthe highest-grossing movies of all timeand spawned its own sequel.
Since then,Disneyhas gone full steam ahead on giving its beloved library a fresh, photo-realistic lick of paint with the likes of Beauty and the Beast, The Jungle Book, The Lion King, Mulan, and Aladdin.
The Little Mermaid, starring Halle Bailey as Ariel, is the latest remake to arrive on the big screen – so, when will it be available to stream on Disney+ or another platform?
When will The Little Mermaid remake come to Disney Plus?

Unlike other live-action remakes, such asPinocchioandPeter Pan, The Little Mermaid isn’t a direct-to-streaming release. Given the box office performance of its predecessors (The Lion King made $1.65 billion), this isn’t surprising.
Avatar: The Way of Water hit cinemas in December last year and didn’t arrive on Disney+ until June 2023. The Little Mermaid was the first of a wave of summer blockbusters, followed up bySpider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,The Flash,Indiana Jones 5, orMission: Impossible 7.
For those wanting to relive the entire Little Mermaid collection, you can stream the original 1989 movie on Disney+ now, as well as its sequel,The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea.
