Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About “Wish” on Disney+

This is your ultimate guide to everything surrounding “Wish” landing on your favorite streaming service. Consider this your personal Fairy Godmother of information!

1. Why did it take so long for “Wish” to come to Disney+?

Ah, the age-old question of theatrical release windows! The time it takes for a movie to go from the big screen to streaming is a carefully calculated dance. The gap between the theatrical release of “Wish” (November 22, 2023) and its Disney+ premiere is roughly four months. This period allows Disney to maximize theatrical revenue and home video sales before making it available to Disney+ subscribers. Streaming releases too soon after a theatrical premiere could potentially cannibalize box office earnings. It’s a delicate balance Disney continuously refines.

2. Will “Wish” be available on Disney+ Premier Access?

No. Disney has largely phased out the Premier Access model. “Wish” will be available to all Disney+ subscribers as part of their regular subscription. This means you won’t need to pay an extra fee to watch it! This is a welcome change for many, making new releases more accessible.

4. Will there be any bonus features or extras with “Wish” on Disney+?

This is where things get interesting! While Disney+ sometimes includes bonus features like behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, or director commentaries, it’s not always guaranteed.
