Thor: Love and Thunder hit theaters on July 8th, which means we’re approaching the Disney Plus release date. Disney gives its movies a theatrical window that’s at least 45 days long before releasing them on its streaming service.
That means Marvel fans don’t have to wait too long to rewatch the newest MCU releases at home or watch them for the first time. You only need a Disney Plus subscription to access all the MCU titles. And the Love and Thunder’s Disney Plus release will drop on a very special day for Disney. An official announcement informs us that the release has been set for September 8th, which is the next Disney Plus Day event.
Thor: Love and Thunder Disney Plus release date
Disney initially posted a 30-second clip on YouTube that was unlisted, and Marvel Studios’ formal announcement followed, at which point the promo clip was made available to all YouTube users. However, Redditors found the clip and shared the YouTube link with the world ahead of schedule. A few hours later, Disney announced its big Disney Plus Day event and that it would also be the release date for the Thor movie.
Disney also teased the accompanying Marvel Studios, ‘Assembled: The Making of Thor: Love and Thunder,‘ a behind-the-scenes documentary. It is set to star director Taika Waititi, Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, and Tessa Thompson.
Through in-depth interviews with the cast and crew and raw, unseen footage from the set and beyond, Assembled pulls back the curtain on the god of thunder’s fourth feature film.
Based on their trend, we anticipated the release of the latest marvel cinematic movie in mid-August. However, our prediction would have set Thor: Love and Thunder and She-Hulk to launch on the same day. Disney and Marvel would not like to release two MCU movies concurrently, so Thor: Love and Thunder’s release was postponed to early September.
Thor: Love and Thunder will be released on Thursday, September 8, 2022. Also, Thor: Love and Thunder will be available in the IMAX Enhanced version on its Disney Plus release date with 15 other Marvel cinematic universe movies.
Thor: Love and Thunder synopsis
The movie opens up with the god of thunder (Chris Hemsworth) embarking on an unusual journey of self-discovery. His efforts are then disrupted by a cosmic killer, Gorr, the god butcher(Christian Bale), who attempts to destroy all gods.
To win this fight, he teams up with King Valkyrie(Tessa Thompson), Korg(Taika Waititi), and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster(Natalie Portman).
In this movie, Jane Foster surprisingly wields the hammer Mjolnir, starring as Mighty Thor. Together they go on an enormous adventure to unveil the reason behind the god Butcher’s revenge and stop him before it is too late.

It’s unclear whether Disney Plus Day will deliver any big announcements. The big MCU reveals might come a day later. That’s because Disney will hold its D23 Expo event from September 9-11. And Marvel should announce even more details about MCU Phase 5 and 6 at D23.
