When Can You Watch *The Mandalorian and Grogu* on Disney+? All the Release Dates You Need

Okay, Star‑Wars fans, the wait is finally ending – at least for a version you can own. Disney’s latest big‑screen adventure, Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, is slated to hit digital stores at the stroke of midnight Eastern on Tuesday, July 21, 2026 (that’s 9 p.m. Pacific on July 20). Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Fandango At Home and a handful of other platforms will let you either buy it for $29.99 or rent it for $24.99. Those are the numbers Disney shared for Amazon; prices on the other services may wiggle a little.

If you’re more of a collector than a streamer, Disney is also rolling out the physical editions a month later. Expect DVD, Blu‑ray and 4K UHD discs to land in stores on August 26, 2026, complete with behind‑the‑scenes featurettes, a director’s commentary with Jon Favreau, and a few extra goodies for the hardcore fan.

As for the streaming window on Disney+, that bit is still a little hazy. The company hasn’t given an official date, but the pattern from recent releases (think Avatar: The Way of Water – VOD about three months after the theatrical run, Disney+ roughly six months later) suggests we could see it on Disney+ somewhere between October and November 2026. In other words, give it a couple more months after the digital launch.

The movie itself is a continuation of the beloved Disney+ series that ran for three seasons from 2019 to 2023. Jon Favreau returns as director, and you’ll once again follow bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) alongside the ever‑charismatic Grogu. New faces include Jeremy Allen White as the slippery Hutt‑type Rotta, with supporting turns from Brendan Wayne, Lateef Crowder and even Sigourney Weaver.

Box‑office‑wise the film performed solidly, racking up roughly $342 million worldwide against a production budget that hovered near $165 million. It’s not a blockbuster smash, but it’s enough to keep the franchise humming and justify the multi‑platform rollout.

Meanwhile, if you’re already a Disney+ subscriber, you’ll be paying $11.99 a month with ads or $18.99 ad‑free (or $189.99 a year) – bundles with Hulu, ESPN+ and HBO Max start at the same $11.99 price point. So, once the film finally lands on Disney+, you’ll be able to stream it without an extra rental fee, provided you’re on one of those plans.

Bottom line: you can own or rent The Mandalorian and Grogu right now, the discs land in August, and the streaming debut on Disney+ should roll around in the fall. Keep an eye on Disney’s official channels for the exact Disney+ date – it’ll be announced as soon as it’s locked in.
