Thor: Love and Thunder soared into cinemas on 7th July 2022, claiming a $143 million opening — the biggest of any standalone Thor movie.
But while Love and Thunder is making waves at the box office, many Disney Plus subscribers are eager to know when they might be able to watch the film from the comfort of their own home.
Thor: Love and Thunder sees Chris Hemsworth back in his most iconic role as the God of Thunder, as he embarks on a quest for inner peace.
When his retirement is soon interrupted by a galactic killer called Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who’s after the extinction of the gods, he teams up with Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) and Korg (Taika Waititi) on an epic cosmic adventure like no other.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to stream the much-anticipated summer blockbuster online.
When is Thor: Love and Thunder coming to Disney Plus?
Thor: Love and Thunder is not currently available to watch on Disney Plus.
But while MCU films no longer go directly to Disney Plus, they typically land on Disney Plus 45 days after their theatrical debuts.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness landed on the service roughly six-and-a-half weeks – or 45 days – from its initial rollout in cinemas.
If Love and Thunder follows the same pattern, it would be streaming from mid-to-late August 2022, although Disney is yet to confirm its plans so take that with a pinch of salt for now.
How to stream Thor: Love and Thunder
At the time of writing, Thor: Love and Thunder is available exclusively in cinemas, and not streaming online.
As detailed above, the movie is expected to land on Disney Plus around 45 days after its theatrical debut.
During the height of the pandemic, Marvel Studios released some films simultaneously in cinemas and on Disney Plus via Premier Access, but more recently they have halted this practice since society has largely opened up again.
Where to watch the other Thor movies online
Fortunately, if you’re looking to get your Thor fix from the comfort of your home, the mighty Avenger has three other movies that are readily available to stream via Disney Plus (2011’s Thor, 2013’s sequel The Dark World, and 2017’s threequel Ragnarok).
