Everything We Know About When Disney's 'Wish' Movie Will Be on Disney+

Disney has brought the movies straight to our homes to enjoy from the comfort of our own living rooms.

Several movies have been released direct to Disney+, skipping the theater debut altogether. A few of those are being re-released in the theater, giving us a chance to see it on the big screen. But many movies are still getting their chance to become box office hits before landing on the streaming platform. The most recent of these has been Disney’s Wish. Now that Wish has been in theaters for some time now, we’re all starting to wonder when it’s coming to Disney+.

Currently, Disney has not made any announcements letting us in on the Disney+ release date of the movie Wish. The movie that follows young Asha on her journey to make wishes come true didn’t initially do too well in the theaters, according to Forbes, and did not receive any Oscar nominations.

Yet, many Disney fans truly loved the movie and are eagerly awaiting its arrival on Disney+. So let’s take a look at a similar movie’s timeline for going from theaters to Disney+ to get an idea of when we might expect Wish to make its streaming premiere.

Disney Pixar’s Elemental was first released to theaters on June 16th, 2023, and was soon found on Disney+ on September 13th of the same year. Within the first seven days on the streaming platform, it reached high success and broke records.

So Elemental went from theaters to Disney+ in about 3 months. If we use this logic, we can look at the theater release date for Wish, which was November 22nd, 2023, and count three months from then, which would put us in February 2024. There was speculation that this could be the case, but the February list of shows and movies coming to Disney+ has been released and Wish was not on it. That doesn’t mean that it couldn’t still happen, though!

Wish was just recently released on digital platforms such as Video on Demand, Blu-ray, and DVD on January 23rd. So Disney may decide to hold it from Disney+ for a little longer so it can earn profits here. This is similar to how movies used to be released before the pandemic.

So when can we expect to see Wish on Disney+? It could be very soon or just another few months. You can be sure that we’ll be keeping our eyes open for any announcements!
