Avatar 2 finally has a streaming release date on Disney Plus, but the Avatar 2 Disney Plus release date comes with a shocking and unexpected twist.

Set over ten years after the initial film, Avatar: The Way of Water takes audiences on a thrilling journey as he returns to the enchanting world of Pandora as we follow the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their children) as they encounter perilous situations, navigate the depths of Pandora’s oceans, and face extraordinary challenges to protect one another.

From the moment the film opened in theaters on Dec. 16, 2022, fans have been counting down the days until its arrival on Disney Plus. While most films have landed on the streaming service within about 60-75 days after their theatrical release, months have gone by without any sign of the film arriving on Disney Plus.

Well, the wait for Avatar: The Way of Water‘s streaming release is almost over as the sequel to James Cameron’s global hit is finally coming to not one, but two streaming services!

Avatar 2 streaming release date: When will Avatar 2 be on Disney Plus?

Nearly 6 months after its debut in theaters, Avatar: The Way of Water will finally be hitting Disney Plus on Wednesday, June 7. The film will be available to watch for anyone with an active Disney Plus account beginning this June; however, Disney Plus will not be the exclusive streaming home to the film as many expected!

In addition to streaming on Disney Plus, Avatar: The Way of Water will also release on Max (formerly HBO Max) on Wednesday, June 7 as well. This means fans will be able to stream the film on both Disney Plus and Max, marking a major first for a Disney original feature film as Disney Plus tends to be the exclusive streaming home to the studio’s films.

Don’t miss Avatar: The Way of Water when it arrives on Disney Plus and Max on Wednesday, June 7, 2023!
