The Little Mermaid Live-Action Remake Blu-ray & Digital Release Date Set

The Little Mermaid Blu-ray and digital release dates have been set for the new Disney live-action remake. It will be available on Digital on July 25, 2023, and then hit store shelves soon after.

When is The Little Mermaid Blu-ray release date?

The movie arrives on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on September 19.

The Bonus Features include a Sing Along Version where you can sing along with your favorite songs while watching the movie with on-screen lyrics. There is a five-chapter documentary called Hotter Under the Water that goes behind the scenes with director Rob Marshall on the making of this movie.

There are also song breakdowns for “Wild Uncharted Waters,” “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl,” and “Poor Unfortunate Souls.” Three more featurettes include The Scuttlebutt on Sidekicks, where you can “dive in and meet Sebastian, Flounder, and Scuttle, who not only have their own song, ‘The Scuttlebutt,’ but also fresh looks as they work hard to make sure Ariel and Eric kiss before Ursula’s deadline.” There is also Passing the Dinglehopper, which features Ariel actress Halle Bailey meeting Jodi Benson, the voice of Ariel in the original film, and a blooper reel.

“The Little Mermaid is visionary filmmaker Rob Marshall’s live-action reimagining of Disney’s beloved animated musical classic, the story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure,” reads the official synopsis. “The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy.”

The cast includes Halle Bailey as Ariel, Jonah Hauer-King as Eric, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, Javier Bardem as King Triton, Noma Dumezweni as The Queen, Art Malik as Sir Grimsby, Daveed Diggs as Sebastian (voice), Jacob Tremblay as Flounder (voice), and Awkwafina as Scuttle (voice).

The movie is directed by Rob Marshall with a screenplay by David Magee, and is produced by Marc Platt, Lin-Manuel Miranda, John DeLuca, and Rob Marshall.
