When Will 'Luca' Be on Disney Plus?

Buongiorno, Luca! Pixar‘s latest animated masterpiece will be released in just a few days. For those who can’t travel to any luxurious destinations this summer, the film will be the perfect replacement — why not voyage to a seaside Italian town and cruise around on a Vespa? No long flight, jet lag, or time difference necessary. There’s just a bit of a wait, and we’re here to help guide you through the Disney+ and theater release date of Luca. Andiamo!

Luca features the talented young voices of Jacob Tremblay and Jack Dylan Grazer as Luca and Alberto, respectively, two boys exploring the Italian Riviera together as best buds. The coming-of-age story follows the pair on the most unforgettable summer of their young lives, with plenty of gelato, pasta, and ocean waves. But Luca is harboring a deep secret: he’s actually a sea monster from another world.

Wondering when you can journey off to Italy with these two kiddos? Here’s everything you need to know about Luca‘s release date:

When will Luca be available on Disney+?

Luca will be streaming on Disney+ on June 18. Get your Disney+ subscription ready. It only costs $7.99 to sign up for the platform; unfortunately, Disney+ has canceled their free trial program.

When will Luca be streaming for free? Will Luca be on Disney+ Premier Access?

Great news — Luca will be streaming for free for all Disney+ subscribers from the moment it lands on the platform. It’s not a Disney+ Premier Access movie, meaning there won’t be a pesky $29.99 fee to watch the new movie, like Cruella or Black Widow.

When will Luca be in theaters?

Luca is skipping theaters and heading straight to Disney+, like other recent Pixar release Soul. Get your in-home theater set up to watch this Pixar movie.

How long will Luca be streaming on Disney+?

Even more great news: Luca will be streaming on Disney+ indefinitely. Unlike Warner Bros.’s simultaneous release schedule, which only slates new films to be on HBO Max for a month, Disney+ will offer Luca without any expiration date.
