Raise your fin if you're pumped to see The Little Mermaid live action adaptation. Us too! Of course, if you missed the movie in theaters, you're probably wondering when you'll be able to stream it on Disney Plus. Luckily, we have an answer for you!
Ahead, we'll give you the inside scoop on how to watch The Little Mermaid, which stars Halle Bailey at Ariel, Javier Bardem as King Triton, Jonah Hauer-King as Eric, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, and Awkwafina as Scuttle.
When will 'The Little Mermaid' live action be streaming?
The long wait to see The Little Mermaid as a live-action reimagining is finally over! The film was released in theaters Friday, May 26, 2023.
Disney Plus subscribers weren't able to stream the new movie at first, which didn't sit well with all fans.
I wanna see The Little Mermaid so bad. I also don’t wanna go alone. I also hate packed movie theaters. I also don’t want to see it while someone’s baby is crying in the background. I also think I’ma wait till it comes out on Disney plus.

'The Little Mermaid' will stream on Disney Plus starting on September 6.
Typically, Disney movies have come to Disney Plus between 45 and 90 days after their initial theatrical release, so we were expecting to be able to enjoy the new mermaid flick sometime between early July and late August.
However, for whatever reason, Disney is waiting a bit longer with The Little Mermaid — it won't be available to stream until Sept. 6.
All the wonder, magic and FUN of Disney's #TheLittleMermaid is coming to @Disneyplus on September 6! 🫧🦀🪸🐙🐠🐚 pic.twitter.com/EuhdyTExJZ
