Posted on Monday, July 19th, 2021 by Shania Russell Go crazy, Disney Animation fans — we’re getting two movies in one year! It’s been a pretty weird time for film releases, with more delays in the past 12 months than we can count. But with things finally getting back on track, it only makes sense that a Disney movie is there to greet us in theaters. Here’s everything you need to know about Encanto. Thankfully, Encanto’s release date isn’t too far into the future. The film is set for a theatrical release later this year, on November 24. It will arrive just in time for a holiday release, offering families an encouraging nudge back to theaters this Thanksgiving weekend. As of now, there are no plans for the film to be released to Disney+ Premier Access, making it the first Disney release straight to theaters since 2019.
