When Will ‘Encanto’ Be on Disney+?

If you want to inject a little bit of magic into your Thanksgiving weekend, then Disney’s newest animated musical Encanto is just the thing.

Featuring new music from Hamilton composer Lin-Manuel Miranda, Encanto tells the story of the Madrigal family who lives deep in the mountains of Colombia. Everyone in the family has magical abilities, like super strength, healing powers, or the ability to make plants grow on command.

Everyone, that is, except our protagonist, Mirabel Madrigal, who is voiced by Brooklyn 99 alum Stephanie Beatriz. Mirabel is the only non-magical member of her family, and yet it’s up to her to save the world of magic when it comes under threat.

You know your kids will love this one, but maybe you’re not ready to brave the Thanksgiving weekend movie crowds. When will Encanto be free on Disney+? Here’s what we know.
