Look at Disney Plus, isn’t it neat? Wouldn’t you say its collection is almost complete? After Disney veterans and no-nonsense critics alike were split down the middle — with some enthralled newcomers satisfied with Disney’s live-action The Little Mermaid remake while others were less than impressed — film buffs around the world are itching to know when the vibrant live-action is set to make its debut on Disney Plus. Of course, the streaming service has notably soared to fantastic heights ever since its launch back in 2019, and The Little Mermaid is exactly what the streaming platform needs to skyrocket its ever-growing popularity.

Given that groundbreaking performances from stars Halle Bailey and Melissa McCarthy were undoubtedly the driving forces behind moviegoers dashing to theaters back in May, it makes perfect sense as to why Disney fans are clamoring for further announcements in regards to the movie’s online release — especially after tune “The Scuttlebutt” became such a massive hit.

When does The Little Mermaid come to Disney Plus?

As of right now, there’s been no official confirmation or release date provided as to when the movie will be available to stream on Disney Plus. That being said, it’s certainly no secret that Disney Plus typically adheres to a 90-day rule of thumb — which means it usually takes about 90 days for a film to transition from theaters to streaming. Although, it’s worth noting that when Disney Plus initially launched, sometimes movies took longer to end up on the platform.

Nevertheless, with Disney’s consistency over the last several months and the timing of the release, eagle-eyed viewers can likely expect that The Little Mermaid will be swimming onto the streaming service by the end of August 2023. So until then, Disney lovers will simply have to sit back and wait patiently until the magical allure and charm of the film is available to be enjoyed comfortably in fans’ homes.

Little Mermaid Home Release Date Revealed & You Can Watch It This Month

NICK BYTHROW
PUBLISHED 2 HOURS AGO

The home release date for Disney's live-action The Little Mermaid remake has been revealed and will be available to watch later this month.

Disney's live-action The Little Mermaid remake will soon be available to watch at home. Based on the 1989 animated film of the same name, The Little Mermaid follows Ariel (Halle Bailey) as she dreams of exploring the world beyond her ocean. The remake has received mixed reviews and made $527.5 million at the box office at the time of writing.

Now, Collider reports the live-action The Little Mermaid will be available to purchase digitally on July 25. The film will also be available on DVD, Blu-Ray, and 4K Ultra HD on September 19. A streaming date for Disney+ has yet to be announced.

How The Live-Action Little Mermaid Is Different From The Original


Animated Ariel and live-action Ariel and Ursula in The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid's live-action adaptation has many changes compared to its animated counterpart that make the movie its own unique experience. Compared to the original's 83-minute runtime, the live-action The Little Mermaid is 135 minutes in length. This is due to many additional details included in the film, such as new songs and deeper characterization for both Ariel and Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King).

However, not every change in The Little Mermaid has been applauded by critics. While The Little Mermaid reviews heaped praise on Halle Bailey's Ariel, other aspects of the movie, such as its new songs and realistic renditions of Sebastian and Flounder, were criticized. Its box office performance has also been disappointing, given its $250 million budget, which could require up to $625 million at the box office to break even. Despite some challenges, the film has still proven itself to be popular even with its box office underperformance.

While The Little Mermaid's box office performance wasn't as strong as anticipated, the remake could still earn more when it's released on digital platforms later this month. It can also offer viewers at home a new take on The Little Mermaid that will be memorable. For those looking forward to rewatching the film at home, The Little Mermaid's digital release will be able to provide that.

'The Little Mermaid' Is Swimming Towards a Summer Digital Release Date

Dive right back into one of this summer's biggest hits when The Little Mermaid becomes available for purchase on Digital platforms on July 25. In addition to the options available for digital copies, the movie will be launched on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray and DVD on September 19. Rob Marshall's version of the 1989 animated classic made quite an impact when it premiered on the big screen in May, with audiences clearly showing an interest in Halle Bailey's performance as the Ariel. The young princess was about to fall in love for the first time, but an evil character from her past would try to take advantage of her innocence.

Just like in the animated Disney classic, Ariel is a young princess with a profound fascination for the human world. Because her mother lost her life in an incident related to humans, King Triton (Javier Bardem) doesn't allow Ariel to explore the land above the sea. Immediately frustrated, the mermaid has to find a new way to keep learning about the mean and woman who can walk under the sun, and her curiosity would take her straight to her evil aunt, Ursula (Melissa McCarthy). The sea witch comes up with an offer Ariel can't refuse, allowing her to explore the human world for three days in exchange for her voice.

But Ariel didn't want to explore the world above only because of forks and a pair of shoes. The main reason why se was so desperate to run towards the sand was because she fell in love with Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King) after saving his life when the ship he was traveling on went under the water. Without her voice, Ariel needed the help of Sebastian (Daveed Diggs) and Scuttle (Awkwafina) to come up with a plan that could allow Eric to feel the same way about her. Through dancing, playing and exploring the world together, the couple was happy with what they shared.

Bonus Features to Enjoy Under the Sea
The home media release of The Little Mermaid will include plenty of extra content to give viewers a more immersive experience when they visit one of this year's smash hits once again. A sing-along version will display the lyrics on the screen, inviting families to join the characters when Alan Menken and Lin-Manuel Miranda's catchy melodies figure into the story. On the other hand, a documentary titled "Hotter Under the Water" will be divided into five parts, giving viewers a glimpse into how Marshall and his team turned the world of Ariel into a reality.

DISNEY’S “THE LITTLE MERMAID” OUT NOW ON DIGITAL PLATFORMS

Today, Disney has released the live-action version of its classic animated film, “The Little Mermaid”, to purchase on digital platforms including Apple TV, Prime Video and Vudu/Fandango. The film will also be released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on September 19th 2023.

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+. 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, 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. “The Little Mermaid” is directed by Rob Marshall with a screenplay by David Magee, and is produced by Marc Platt, Lin-Manuel Miranda, John DeLuca and Rob Marshall.

Whether you love Disney's live-action remakes or raise a critical eyebrow every time a new one is announced, the hype around The Little Mermaid has likely left you a little curious. If you skipped the theatrical debut in hopes of throwing your own at-home watch party, your wait is over. The film will be available to purchase on digital platforms as of July 25 — then will be released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on Sept. 19. Its streaming debut will require a bit more waiting, but here are all the details you need to know to watch Ariel and friends from the comfort of your couch.

Is the live-action Little Mermaid worth watching?
Despite any prior controversy surrounding the film, The Little Mermaid still made a splash in its opening weekend, bringing in an estimated $163.5 million worldwide. While Halle Bailey and Melissa McCarthy did their best to recapture that joyful magic of Ariel and Ursula in the live-action remake of the animated classic, they ultimately collected mixed reviews.

Some characters — Ursula, particularly — stood out for their performances, but others kind of creeped viewers out (ahem, Flounder and Scuttle). There are "some moments of cinematic underwater splendor," according to Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko, but there are also some questionable choices, like the dim, grey color palette, boring deep dive into Prince Eric's background, and mediocre song additions.

"Overall, this Little Mermaid has some splendor, but — like its eponymous heroine — I want mooooooooore!" exclaimed Puchko in her review.

It's certainly worth giving it a shot if you're a die-hard Disney fan or even a casual viewer wanting the nostalgia of singing along with Ariel and friends under the sea. Check out a glimpse into the film in the official trailer below.

Is The Little Mermaid coming to Disney+?
As with all major releases from Disney, we can say with certainty that The Little Mermaid is coming to Disney+, but we can't say with certainty when that will be. Based on past releases, we can expect it as early as the end of August, but it's more likely to arrive sometime in September after its physical release on Blu-ray and DVD.

If you want to secure a Disney+ subscription ahead of the release (and rewatch the original film), it'll cost $7.99/month with ads or $10.99/month with no ads. You can also bundle it with Hulu (ideal if you already have a Hulu account) for only $9.99/month. That's basically like getting Disney+ for just $2/month.

Can I watch The Little Mermaid at home?
If you can't wait for the streaming release, you can still explore the magical world of Ariel and friends with The Little Mermaid's digital release. The film will be available as of July 25 on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Vudu for purchase. And if you prefer a physical copy, the movie will be available on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on Sept. 19. Stay tuned for rental details as well.

While streaming releases give you the convenience of watching the film at your leisure and moving on, dedicated fans might enjoy the benefits of purchasing The Little Mermaid for their digital or physical film collection. With your purchase, you'll also get access to exclusive bonus features like a sing-along version of the film, song breakdowns, bloopers, and exclusive featurettes.

Here are the best digital platforms for purchasing the film.

Buy in UHD on Amazon Prime Video — $19.99

Buy in 4K UHD on Vudu — $19.99

Buy in 4K on Apple TV+ — $19.99

Buy in 4K on Google Play — $19.99

Buy in UHD on YouTube — $19.99

What are the bonus features?
The best part about purchasing the film, as opposed to streaming, is all the fun bonus features you get. Here's a glimpse at what's included in The Little Mermaid's exclusive bonus features.

Sing-Along Version — Great for kids and kids-at-heart, the sing-along version includes on-screen lyrics for your very own karaoke watch party.

Hotter Under Water — Broken into five chapters, this documentary shows how director Rob Marshall and his team brought the live-action remake of the animated classic to life. Marshall takes viewers on set to see how the magic is made in part one. Part two gives you a glimpse into cast members' journeys and how they came to secure their roles in the film. Parts three and four explore the virtual ocean and underwater visual effects, as well as the above-the-sea locations and production design. And finally, the last part dives into the musical aspect.

Song Breakdowns — Speaking of music, the Song Breakdowns special feature lets you go behind the songs in the film, from the writing and recording to the dancing and set-building.

Featurettes — Laugh along with the cast in a blooper reel, meet the sidekicks Flounder and Scuttle, and see the magic of Ariel meeting Ariel (when Halle Bailey worked with the original voice of Ariel from the animated film, Jodi Benson).

How to watch The Little Mermaid original film
If you want to relive the magic of the original Little Mermaid film while you wait for the remake to hit Disney+ — or rewatch it before diving into the live-action version — you have a couple of options. Disney+ subscribers can stream the original animated film for free with their subscription. Non-Disney+ subscribers can rent or buy the original film on digital retailers like Apple TV and Amazon.

Signing up for a Disney+ subscription not only lets you stream the original film, but also the film's sequels and ABC's The Little Mermaid Live! You'll also be in good shape when the live-action remake hits Disney+ in the next month or two.

The film offers the option to watch in SD, HD, and UHD, priced at $19.99. Halle Bailey shared her emotions about taking on such an iconic Disney character and even revealed special advice she received from none other than Beyoncé. The interview, along with an extended preview of the movie, can be enjoyed on the Fandango YouTube channel and Fandango's platform.

The Little Mermaid had already garnered significant excitement before its release, ranking among the top 5 most anticipated summer movies of 2023 according to Fandango's ‘Most Anticipated’ survey of over 6,000 ticket-buyers. To celebrate the film's debut, the cast, featuring Halle Bailey as Ariel, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, Awkwafina as Scuttle, and Daveed Diggs as Sebastian, came together for Fandango's first-ever ‘Big Ticket’ interview.

The release on Vudu, Disney's go-to video-on-demand streaming service, offers an array of bonus features to enhance the viewing experience.

Moreover, viewers get an inside look at the casting process and the creative efforts behind the breathtaking underwater world through featurettes like I Know Something's Starting Right Now and Down Where It’s Wetter.

Since its debut over the Memorial Day weekend, The Little Mermaid has achieved impressive box office success, earning $283.8 million domestically and $243.7 million in international markets, totaling a whopping $527.5 million worldwide. The film's immense popularity prompted Disney Junior to announce an animated series titled Disney Junior's Ariel, which will delve into Ariel's journey of self-discovery.

Directed by Rob Marshall, this live-action adaptation brings the beloved characters to life with a star-studded cast, including Javier Bardem as King Triton, Noma Dumezweni as Queen Selina, and Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric.

You Can Now Watch The Little Mermaid Remake at Home
The live-action adaptation starring Halle Bailey is now available on demand. But when will it be available to stream?

BY ELLE.COM PUBLISHED: JUL 25, 2023

You can now be part of Ariel’s world without leaving your couch. The live-action remake of Disney’s animated classic, which swam into theaters in May, is now available to rent or purchase on VOD (video on-demand) platforms, such as Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, and more.

Starring singer and actress Halle Bailey as the iconic Ariel, 2023’s The Little Mermaid revisits the beloved tale of an adventurous young mermaid who yearns to explore the world outside the ocean and falls in love with a handsome prince—at a steep price. A mix of recognizable names and newcomers bring the familiar characters back to life: Javier Bardem as King Triton, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, Daveed Diggs as Sebastian, Jacob Tremblay as Flounder, Awkwafina as Scuttle, and Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric. Rob Marshall—who has helmed Disney films like Into the Woods, Mary Poppins Returns, and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides—directs.

As Disney probably predicted, the nostalgia card worked: The remake topped box offices when it debuted ahead of Memorial Day, earning $117.5 million on opening weekend. Now, a couple months later, the film is making its way online. Here’s how to watch.

THE BIG PICTURE
Disney's live-action The Little Mermaid captivated fans' hearts and is now available for digital streaming, showcasing a reimagined story while preserving its core message.
The updated film introduces new themes, such as Ariel's sisters as future leaders and a refreshing take on Ariel and Eric's relationship, providing a fresh perspective for both modern and mature audiences.
With power-packed performances and a stunning vision from director Rob Marshall, the movie maintains relatable characters and suitable nuances for a modern mindset without detracting from the classic story.

Disney’s The Little Mermaid live-action came and conquered fans’ hearts. After swimming past many box office milestones during its theatrical run, the movie is finally out on digital for audiences’ leisure watch. The musical romantic fantasy, directed by Rob Marshall from a screenplay written by David Magee, reimagines the story elements for contemporary times while keeping the core message of the feature intact.

The preview sees Ariel (Hailey Bailey) on the shore after saving Prince Eric, and we get to see her fascinated by the world above water and understand that King Triton doesn’t appreciate his daughter’s interest in humans or their world. The clip also gives us a good peak into the intentions of Melissa McCarthy’s evil sea witch Ursula while also showcasing the worries of Sebastian and the eccentricity of Scuttle. With two mesmerizing musical numbers in the first few minutes, one can only imagine how the rest of the feature unfolds.

What’s New About The Little Mermaid?
The Bailey-led feature has updated many themes from the original animated movie to suit the modern audience as well as to give the more mature fans a fresh perspective on the tale while capturing the magic of the classic. Some notable changes include Ariel’s sisters being future leaders, and their mother being killed by a human in the new tale and certainly watch out for a refreshing take on Ariel and Eric’s relationship. The movie also introduces three new musical numbers by Broadway legend Lin-Manuel Miranda.

The changes in the story only add to the power-packed performances and Marshall’s stunning vision. The characters seem more relatable and the tale has nuances that suit to modern mindset but do not take away from the classic. With its inclusive star cast, the feature garners attention of all age groups alike making it the perfect family watch.


Along with Bailey as Ariel, the movie also casts Jonah Hauer-King as Eric, McCarthy as Ursula, Javier Bardem as King Triton, Noma Dumezweni as Queen Selina, Art Malik as Sir Grimsby, Daveed Diggs as the voice of Sebastian, Jacob Tremblay as the voice of Flounder, and Awkwafina as the voice of Scuttle. Further rounding the cast as the daughters of Triton (renamed for the film) are Lorena Andrea as Perla, Simone Ashley as Indira, Karolina Conchet as Mala, Sienna King as Tamika, Kajsa Mohammar as Karina, and Nathalie Sorrell as Caspia.

Watch The Little Mermaid 2023 Online: Disney Releases 9 Minutes for Free
By Klein Felt Posted: July 25, 2023


Little Mermaid Halle Bailey

Fans can get a taste of Disney's live-action The Little Mermaid remake, as nine minutes from the film have been released online for free.

The Halle Bailey-led reimaging of Disney's animated classic hit theaters back in May, and is now set to come home on digital and eventually Disney+.

Fans were ushered back under the sea, taking in the familiar story with several notable changes as well as a few new songs exclusive to this version of the film.

Many of the mainstays from the 1989 original were also there, including the beloved "Under the Sea" and "Part of Your World" musical numbers.

Watch A Little Mermaid Preview Online
In conjunction with The Little Mermaid's digital release, Disney put up a nine-minute extended preview online for fans to watch for free.

The sequence takes place fairly early in the film, kicking off with Halle Bailey's Ariel serenading a water-logged Prince Eric with her iconic siren song.

To avoid being seen by the human world, Bailey's titular Atlantean scurries into the water, breaking into the "Part of Your World (Reprise)," culminating in the film's quintessential waves on the rock moment as Ariel's vocals crescendo.

After a quick check-in with the film's villain Ursula (played by Melissa McCarthy), another musical number is quick to start with Daveed Diggs' Sebastian the Crab giving his rendition of the classic Disney song "Under the Sea."

This sequence sees Sebastian trying to convince Ariel that "life is [in fact] much better down where it's wetter," and she should stop longing for the human world. Despite getting what feels like the entire ocean in on the upbeat song, Ariel is not convinced as she quickly disappears upon the song's conclusion.

Promoting the film's digital release, the nine minutes of footage ends with the message, "Watch what happens next."

The full free preview can be seen below:

Why Was This the Perfect Little Mermaid Clip?
As of late, Disney has made it a bit of a habit to release a chunk of its biggest movies online to coincide with its digital releases.

Most of this time it is not a sequence from the middle of the movie like this. Usually, it is the beginning of the movie, setting prospective audiences for the adventure ahead should they hit that purchase button to watch the whole movie.

However, this might be the perfect sequence from The Little Mermaid to release for free to the public.

This nine-minute chunk happens to include two of the film's most recognizable and beloved musical numbers, which was likely the thinking behind picking this particular series of scenes.

Yes, the "Part of Your World" moment was the reprise and not the goosebump-inducing first run through the song in Ariel's grotto. But Ariel's reprise including her coming up on the rock as the wave crash behind her is nearly as iconic.

Plus, ending with "Under the Sea" was ideal, as the song is arguably the most popular from the movie.

If Disney was wanting to sell digital copies of The Little Mermaid, this was the best way to do it. After watching this preview, fans will be hard-pressed to not open up their wallets coming off two of the best musical numbers the film has to offer.

The Little Mermaid is available to purchase digitally now.
