“Lilo & Stitch” Disney+ Release Date Announced

Disney has announced details on the streaming release for the biggest box office hit of the year, the live-action reimaging of Disney’s animated classic, “Lilo & Stitch”, which will be coming to Disney+ on September 3rd 2025, just a few weeks after the digital release.

This movie tells the story of what happens when a lonely girl named Lilo adopts Stitch, an alien “puppy,” Stitch helps to mend Lilo’s broken family — but not without wreaking hilarious havoc on the Hawaiian Islands.

Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch” has officially crossed $1 billion at the global box office, making it the first Motion Picture Association (MPA) title of 2025 to reach the milestone. Following its record-breaking $183 million Memorial Day weekend debut, the film has become the year’s top-grossing MPA release both worldwide and internationally.

This reimagination of a Disney animated classic brings new energy into the hilarious and heart-warming tale of Lilo and her unconventional adopted “pet” Stitch. Lush tropical settings provide welcoming visuals as warm as the “found family” that Lilo and Stitch create together, while also authentically honouring the culture and beauty of Hawai’i.

“Lilo & Stitch” is directed by Oscar-nominated Dean Fleischer Camp and stars Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Billy Magnussen, Tia Carrere, Hannah Waddingham, Chris Sanders, with Courtney B. Vance, and Zach Galifianakis, while introducing Maia Kealoha.

Previously released movies and shows featuring Stitch can be found on Disney+. With over 640 million hours streamed globally, the franchise continues to capture hearts and delight fans around the world.   It was also recently revealed that a new sequel is currently in development.
