New Disney Plus movies: every new film to stream in January 2025

Amy Adams' Mother runs down the street flanked by dogs in Nightbitch.

Welcome to TechRadar's new Disney Plus movies article. In this guide, I've compiled a list of the latest new movies that have debuted on the streaming titan, so you don't need to enlist Google's help to find out what's recently landed on the service.

This week, the dark comedy-thriller Nightbitch has joined Disney Plus' movie library. If you're a fan of Amy Adams or similar genre fare, then, you're sure to have a blast by checking it out on one of the world's best streaming services. If you'd prefer to stream something else, though, our best Disney Plus movies article is full of other top-tier options. I'd recommend bookmarking that page for later, though, and seeing if any of these new Disney Plus movies tickle your fancy first.
