Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine officially made its debut in theaters on Friday, July 26th.
There has been a ton of hype about Marvel’s latest release, Deadpool & Wolverine. The movie features the two superhero icons teaming up to safeguard the multiverse in an odd-couple pairing, and it’s off to a strong start at the box office in its first weekend. But if you prefer to watch new releases from the comfort of your own couch, you might be wondering — when will Deadpool & Wolverine be available on Disney+? Here’s what we know!
Disney doesn’t have an exact formula for the timeline of when new theatrical releases make their way to Disney+, but we have started to see a pattern emerge with many of the recent major movies.
Let’s look at Wish as one of the most recent examples. Disney released Wish in theaters during Thanksgiving weekend of 2023, in honor of the company’s 100th anniversary. The movie then premiered on Disney+ on April 3rd, 2024, about 4 months after it came out in theaters.
Another much-hyped animated movie example is Pixar’s Elemental, which premiered in theaters on June 16th, 2023, and was added to Disney+ on September 13th, 2023, just under 3 months later.
So, with recent animated releases following a pattern of about 3-4 months between theatrical and streaming releases, have Marvel movies shown the same trend? It appears so! Take the most recent example, The Marvels, which premiered in theaters on November 10th, 2023, and came to Disney+ on February 7th, 2024, just under 3 months later.
Before that, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 showed almost the exact same pattern, with a theatrical release on May 5th, 2023, and a streaming release on August 2nd, 2023, about 3 months later. If we look back at one more recent Marvel movie, the pattern continues — Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania debuted on Disney+ on May 17th, 2023, exactly 3 months after its February 17th, 2023 release in theaters.
With that pattern in mind, it’s likely that Deadpool & Wolverine will probably come to Disney+ in about 3 months, which would mean sometime in late October or early November of 2024. No official streaming date has been announced, but based on the relatively consistent pattern we’ve seen, that’s what we expect to happen in this case too!
UPDATE: Deadpool and Wolverine will be available for purchase digitally on October 1st and on Blu-Ray on October 22nd. Typically films come to Disney+ shortly after being released digitally, so we’ll be on the lookout for a date!
We’ll be on the lookout for an announcement confirming when Deadpool & Wolverine will be available to stream on Disney+, so stay tuned to DFB for the latest updates!
