Pixar's Turning Red is set to release this Friday, March 11. After a flare up in coronavirus cases earlier this year, Disney opted to shift the film's release from theaters to its Disney+ (in countries where the streaming service is currently availaable).
With glowing reviews praising Turning Red as one of Pixar's best, this is undoubtedly going to be a film you'll want to watch. But will you have to pay to stream it?
For certain movies that Disney has released exclusively on Disney+, subscribers were charged an additional Premium Access fee. This usually costs $30 and allows those who pay to watch the new movie before it's regularly scheduled to be added to the service's library.
Thankfully, Turning Red will not release with a Premium Access fee attached to it. Anyone who subscribes to Disney+ will be able to watch the movie for free as it's included in your standard subscription.
Turning Red is a coming-of-age story that follows Mei Lee, a confident yet dorky 13-year-old torn between staying her mother's dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence. But in addition to all of the changes her body and mind are going through, perhaps the biggest is that she poofs into a giant red panda anytime she gets too excited.
Turning Red will be available to stream on Disney+ on Friday, March 11, starting at midnight PT (3:00 a.m. ET).
