Disney released the live-action version of ‘The Little Mermaid’ to theaters in May and then digitally on July 25th. Now Disney+ subscribers will finally get to see the movie on the streaming platform next month.
‘The Little Mermaid’ will release on Disney+ starting on September 6, 2023.

Disney+ subscribers will get the film before it’s released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on September 19th.
This makes me wonder if Disney needs to boost Disney+ subscribers as they are putting it on their platform almost two weeks before it goes out for physical release.
‘The Little Mermaid’ earned about $564 million at the global box office for it’s theatrical run. However, many have suggested it would need about $600 -$700 million to break even. With the VOD sales and physical media sales, it could pass that total and head toward profitability.
