Thor: Love and Thunder - When will the movie be released on Disney Plus?

Thor: Love and Thunder hit movie theatres last month, and despite its mixed reception from fans and critics, many are wondering when they can stream the superhero film on Disney+.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe movie reunites Thor (played by Chris Hemsworth ) with Jane Foster (played by Natalie Portman ), after his love interest was missing from the third film.

Christian Bale made his MCU debut as the chilling Gorr the God Butcher, while Tessa Thompson returned as King Valkyrie.

Like most Marvel movies, Thor: Love and Thunder has had a successful run at the box office, already passing the $700 million mark - making it one of the most successful films of 2022.

Despite its popularity, the Marvel movie has officially become the lowest-rated Thor movie on Rotten Tomatoes, as it currently stands at a 65 percent critics score.

This falls behind critically acclaimed Thor Ragnarok, which received an impressive rating of 93 percent.

But when can Disney+ subscribers watch Thor: Love and Thunder on the streaming service?

Thor: Love and Thunder release date predictions

The latest Thor movie is predicted to premiere on Disney+ before the end of August, as the MCU usually favours a 45-day theatrical release window before premiering on the streaming platform.

This pattern was adopted in the releases of Shang-Chi And the Legend of the Ten Rings, Eternals, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Marvel Studios often gravitate towards Wednesday releases, so it has been rumoured that August 24 is the earliest possibility.

But with Disney Plus Day approaching on September 8, there is a chance that it could get released next month instead.

Disney’s recent streaming strategy has been inconsistent, as Encanto spent a month in theatres before being released on the streaming platform.

Meanwhile, West Side Story - directed by Steven Spielberg, hit Disney+ three months after playing exclusively in cinemas.

While there is no confirmation at this time, Disney+ subscribers can expect Thor: Love and Thunder to be released on the streaming platform over the next few weeks.
