Where to Watch The Mandalorian and Grogu at Home: Disney+ Streaming Date




 Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu is coming to streaming this week.

The movie will begin streaming exclusively on Disney+ on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2026, following its theatrical release earlier this summer. Disney+ and Lucasfilm have both confirmed the Sept. 2 streaming date.

If you do not have Disney+, there are also other ways to watch the movie at home because it is already available through digital purchase platforms and on physical media.

Quick Take

  • Disney+ streaming date: Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2026
  • Streaming service: Disney+
  • U.S. streaming release time: Not officially announced
  • Digital version: Available now
  • Physical release: Available on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray
  • Rating: PG-13
  • Runtime: About 2 hours and 12 minutes

When Does The Mandalorian and Grogu Come to Disney+?

The Mandalorian and Grogu arrives on Disney+ on Sept. 2.

Disney describes the release as the movie's streaming premiere, and the official Disney+ listing currently shows “Coming to Disney+ September 2, 2026.”

The movie originally opened in theaters on May 22, 2026. It brings Din Djarin and Grogu, who previously led the Disney+ series The Mandalorian, into their first feature-length theatrical adventure.

The timing makes Sept. 2 an important date for viewers who skipped the theatrical release or have been waiting to watch the movie as part of their Disney+ subscription.

What Time Will It Be Available on Disney+?

Disney has confirmed the Sept. 2 release date, but its official U.S. announcements do not currently provide a specific launch time for the movie.

That is worth noting because release times can vary depending on the title.

Disney has announced an exact time for a related The Mandalorian and Grogu podcast launching the same day, but it has not given the movie itself a specific hour in its current announcement.

So if you are planning to watch as soon as the movie becomes available, the safest approach is to check Disney+ on Sept. 2 rather than relying on an unofficial release-time estimate.

Can You Watch It Without Disney+?

Yes, although it will not be part of another subscription streaming service at launch.

Disney says The Mandalorian and Grogu will stream exclusively on Disney+, but the film is already available separately through digital platforms.

StarWars.com lists digital availability through platforms including:

  • Amazon Prime Video
  • Apple TV
  • Fandango

Disney previously announced the movie's digital release for July 21.

This distinction matters if you use Amazon Prime Video. Finding the movie in the Prime Video store does not mean it is included with a standard Prime membership. It is a separate digital home-video option.

For viewers who already subscribe to Disney+, waiting until Sept. 2 provides the simpler option because the film will join the Disney+ catalog.

Is The Mandalorian and Grogu Available on Blu-ray?

Yes.

The movie is already available on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray, according to StarWars.com. Disney has also released additional physical versions and home-video features for viewers who prefer owning a copy rather than streaming it.

The home release includes features such as behind-the-scenes material and commentary from director Jon Favreau.

That gives viewers three basic ways to watch at home:

  1. Stream it on Disney+ beginning Sept. 2.
  2. Buy it digitally through a supported digital store.
  3. Purchase a physical copy.

For most existing Disney+ subscribers, the Sept. 2 streaming release will likely be the easiest option.

Do You Need to Watch The Mandalorian Series First?

Disney describes The Mandalorian and Grogu as a standalone adventure designed for both new audiences and longtime fans.

That means Disney is positioning the movie so that viewers do not necessarily need to rewatch every episode of The Mandalorian before starting it.

However, familiarity with Din Djarin, Grogu and the New Republic era will naturally provide more background for their relationship and the world surrounding the story.

For someone completely new to the characters, the basic setup is straightforward: Din Djarin is a Mandalorian bounty hunter, and Grogu is his young apprentice. The New Republic recruits them as it deals with Imperial forces that remain after the fall of the Empire.

What Else Is Arriving With the Movie?

Disney is making Sept. 2 a larger Mandalorian streaming day rather than releasing only the movie.

An animated special, LEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian, is also scheduled to debut on Disney+ that day.

Disney is also launching the official The Mandalorian and Grogu podcast on Sept. 2. The first two podcast episodes are scheduled to become available at 6 p.m. PT, or 9 p.m. ET.

The podcast focuses on the making of the movie and provides a behind-the-scenes companion for viewers who want more context after watching it.

What to Know Before Watching

The Mandalorian and Grogu is rated PG-13 and runs approximately 2 hours and 12 minutes, according to Disney's official movie page. Jon Favreau directed the film, with Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver and Jeremy Allen White among the cast.

For viewers mainly interested in the easiest way to watch, however, the key detail is simple:

The Mandalorian and Grogu starts streaming on Disney+ on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2026.

If you would rather own the movie, digital and physical versions are already available.
