Lilo & Stitch: When is live action film released on streaming? Disney+ release date confirmed after box office success
The release date for the live action version of Lilo & Stitch has been confirmed - and it’s not long until fans can watch from home.
The classic Disney animated film was given a live-action update earlier this year, when Lilo & Stitch was released in cinemas across the globe. Following the extraterrestrial Stitch after he escapes from prison, Lilo & Stitch tells the story of the alien coming to live with Lilo, a young Hawaiian girl, with Stitch attempting to pass as a dog on Earth.
The newest film was a big hit after being released in May. It pulled in more than $1bn dollars at the box office and is currently the second-highest grossing film of 2025.
As a result, excitement has been high over being able to watch the live-action flick at home. Now, it has been confirmed that there is not long to wait.
