Disney has been releasing more and more of its classic animated movies in 4K over the past few years. Some of these releases are timed with new live-action versions of the films, like what we saw with Lilo & Stitch this year<\/u>, and other remastered favorites are now arriving in glorious Ultra HD simply because audiences are asking for them. If you’re looking to add a few 4K Disney movies to your personal collection (or buy them as a gift for someone this year), I’ve rounded up every one you can buy right now.<\/p>\n
Everything that has gotten the live-action treatment has received a 4K re-release. That includes The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Lilo & Stitch, Mulan, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Snow White, and Aladdin. Pretty much everything after The Princess and the Frog has also gotten a 4K release as well, so it’s mostly the classics that are missing here. There’s also the latest 4K release, The Emperor’s New Groove<\/u>, which is getting the treatment for its 25th anniversary.<\/p>\n
The most notable exclusion of a 4K re-release, in my opinion, is Tarzan. I still listen to the soundtrack to that movie from time to time and it is just as good as the first time I heard it. Hercules is another suspicious omission, but since a live-action film is on its way in 2027<\/u>, I’m willing to bet a 4K animated release will follow.<\/p>\n
A lot more Pixar films are available in 4K than classic Disney movies. Pixar has released 29 movies <\/u> and 26 of them are available to buy in 4K right now. The three missing films from this list are Toy Story 3, Cars 2 \u2013 although you can still technically buy these sequels for a massively marked-up price on Amazon \u2013 and Elemental. But Elemental was a Disney Club exclusive and sold out relatively quickly.<\/p>\n
If you’re hoping to buy a complete Toy Story collection, the good news is that a new movie is coming out and, most likely, a new box set will be released along with it. Toy Story 5<\/u> is set to arrive in theaters in June 2026.<\/p>\nWhat Is the Best Place to Buy 4K Disney Movies?<\/h2>\n
The overall best place to buy 4K movies is on Amazon<\/u>. This is simply because it tends to have the largest selection available at any given time. In some cases, new releases, like Inside Out 2, will sell out at Amazon and only be available at other retailers like Walmart and Target.<\/p>\nCan you stream Disney movies in 4K?<\/h3>\n
If you have a Disney+ Premium subscription, you can stream some Disney movies in 4K on the platform. Not every animated movie is available in 4K on Disney+, but if it has been remastered digitally then there’s a good chance you can stream it at that same quality.<\/p>\n
