Disney is returning to its traditional windowed approach for new releases, going through a theatrical release, then digital, before going to physical media and then onto Disney Plus.
Currently, no Disney+ release date has been announced, but it’s likely to be after the film is released on physical media formats, similar to how recent hits like “Avatar: The Way Of Water” and “Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania” have been released.
“The Little Mermaid” is visionary filmmaker Rob Marshall’s live-action reimagining of Disney’s beloved animated musical classic, the story of Ariel.
Ariel is a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure.
The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric.
While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart.
She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy.
