On Nov. 24, the Madrigal family enchanted screens in Disney’s magical and musical animated film, Encanto. This holiday season, Mirabel and the family are back to restore the magic as the film arrives on Disney+ with a host of special bonus features for families to watch at home.
Set to begin streaming on Dec. 24, the digitized version of the movie will include a sing-along for kids (and adults, of course) to enjoy. As the lyrics display on-screen, viewers can belt alongside Luisa in “Surface Pressure” or move and groove to “We Don’t Talk About Bruno.”
Post-performance, fans can enjoy a range of other bonus features including interviews with the movie’s producers, deleted scenes, and bloopers! “Discover Columbia,” for example, explores the lived experience of the filmmaking team that inspired Encanto’s characters. In the “Let’s Talk About Bruno” special, fans can discover Lin-Manuel Miranda and the entire cast’s collaboration process in creating one of the film’s songs.
A charming touch, the streamable version of the film will also include the premiere of a new Disney original short, Far From the Tree. The animated special follows a young raccoon and his parents as they all navigate their different roles in their family.
In addition to hitting the streaming service on Christmas Eve, Encanto and these special bonus features will also launch on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on Feb. 8.
