The live-action adaptation of Disney's "Moana" is now available for consumers to purchase or rent on various digital platforms, including Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV. The movie is also set to be released on DVD and 4K Blu-ray on October 6, 2026, with a limited edition SteelBook version also available the same day.
Directed by Thomas Kail and featuring a screenplay by Jared Bush and Dana Ledoux Miller, the film stars Catherine Laga’ia in her feature film debut as Moana. Dwayne Johnson reprises his role as the demigod Maui. The cast also includes Rena Owen, John Tui, Frankie Adams, and Jemaine Clement. Critics have offered mixed reviews, with some describing the film as "bland" and a "generic beat-for-beat remake."
Digital purchase prices vary by platform, with Prime Video listing the movie for $29.99 to buy and $24.99 to rent. Physical media releases and digital versions are expected to include bonus features such as a sing-along option and behind-the-scenes content, though digital extras may differ by retailer.
While the live-action "Moana" is not currently available on any subscription streaming services, its release on Disney+ is anticipated. Based on the release patterns of previous Disney films, such as "Toy Story 5," which arrived on Disney+ just over three months after its theatrical debut, "Moana" is projected to begin streaming around mid-October 2026. However, Disney has not yet officially announced a specific streaming date.
Disney+ offers several subscription tiers. Plans with ads cost $11.99 per month, while ad-free subscriptions are $18.99 per month or $189.99 annually. Bundles combining Disney+ with other services like Hulu, and Max are also available, starting at $11.99 per month for Disney+ and Hulu with ads.
