Looking for new movies on Disney+ to watch tonight? Start with Moana (2026), Disney+’s newest live-action adventure highlighted as streaming, or choose Toy Story 5 for family animation, Avatar: Fire and Ash for a large-scale sci-fi story, or The Devil Wears Prada 2 for fashion-world comedy-drama. This guide is checked against Disney+ pages available on October 25, 2026. The service’s catalog varies by country, so confirm each title in your local app before planning a watch party.
If you want a musical family adventure, the live-action Moana is the clearest place to start. Catherine Lagaʻaia plays Moana, and Dwayne Johnson returns as Maui in a retelling that sends the young voyager beyond Motunui’s reef. Disney+’s October 21, 2026 page says the movie is now streaming; it opened in theaters on July 10. Search for the year in the title if you want this version rather than the 2016 animated movie or Moana 2.

Toy Story 5: a familiar Pixar world meets new technology
Disney says Toy Story 5 began streaming on Disney+ on September 23, 2026. Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and the other toys face a new challenge when technology changes playtime in Bonnie’s home. It suits viewers who want a recent animated sequel with returning characters, and it gives families a new story without needing to search through a long list of unrelated premieres. The official title page also links to Disney’s wider Toy Story collection.
For another animated choice, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde return for a new case in Zootopia 2. Disney+ reports that the sequel began streaming March 11, 2026. Choose it when you want a buddy-cop mystery set in a lively animal metropolis; the official page has the current synopsis and links to the original movie, which can help if you want to revisit the first story before starting the sequel.
James Cameron’s third Avatar film returns to Pandora and continues the Sully family’s story. Disney+ lists it as streaming from June 24, 2026. It is a good pick when you want expansive world-building and visual effects rather than a quick, light comedy. If you have not watched the earlier films recently, Disney+’s official saga guide can help you find Avatar and Avatar: The Way of Water for a refresher.

Prefer a contemporary comedy-drama? The sequel brings Andy Sachs back into Miranda Priestly’s orbit, with Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci returning. Disney’s U.S. page lists the film on Disney+ and Hulu, while its United Kingdom page lists Disney+ as the streaming home. That difference is a useful reminder to check your own market’s listing rather than assume every region carries the same service bundle.

How to choose the right movie for tonight
Use the title page as a quick decision guide instead of relying on a generic “new releases” list:
Match the mood. Pick Moana for a live-action musical adventure, Toy Story 5 or Zootopia 2 for animation, Avatar: Fire and Ash for science fiction, or The Devil Wears Prada 2 for a fashion-focused comedy-drama.
Check the year and version. Disney has multiple films with similar franchise names. Searching “Moana 2026” or “Toy Story 5” makes it easier to open the intended movie rather than an earlier installment.
Verify it in your local catalog. Disney+ says some titles can be unavailable in certain countries or regions. If a movie does not appear, check the official Disney+ location and availability guidance. Profile age settings can also affect which titles are visible; Disney explains common causes in its missing-content help article.
What “new” means on a streaming list
A movie can be new to Disney+ even when its theatrical release was months earlier. For this roundup, “new” means a current Disney+ streaming pick with an official streaming listing, not a film that is merely announced for a future theater date. Streaming windows and the platforms that carry a movie can change, and a Disney+ page may be tailored to a particular country. Recheck the title in your account on the day you plan to watch.
For a fast shortlist: start with Moana (2026) for the newest highlighted arrival, choose Toy Story 5 or Zootopia 2 for animation, and queue Avatar: Fire and Ash for a bigger science-fiction night. If you want a grown-up story instead, check whether The Devil Wears Prada 2 appears in your local Disney+ library.
