Looking to go to guard a galaxy far, far away, or maybe just pop into a chalk painting? Want to experience a bit of catharsis with a classic Pixar tear jerker? Surely, there’s one on the horizon. Here’s your ever-updated list of upcoming Disney movie release dates:

This full list of new Disney movie release dates includes not just the classic Disney films but everything under the Disney umbrella: Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars (oh my!). We’ve even thrown in the 20th Century Studios release dates as the studios continues its Disney-fication.
Upcoming Animated Disney Movie Release Dates
Just looking for some animation action? Classic Disney isn’t churning anything out this year (we’ll let them ride on the coattails of Encanto a little longer), but 2022 marks the release of two new Pixar films.

The first (Turning Red) is a totally new concept while Lightyear revisits our favorite space ranger—but as an actual person, not a toy. (Nobody tell Woody).
- Turning Red: March 11, 2022 on Disney+
- Lightyear: June 17, 2022 in theaters
Upcoming Star Wars Release Dates
The Star Wars franchise is killing it with TV shows on Disney+, with The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, and new-for-2022 Obi-Wan Kenobi, but what about new Star Wars movies in 2022?
Obi-Wan Kenobi is a new Star Wars series, but what about a new film?
Unfortunately, there are no full-length Star Wars movies slated to debut in 2022.
Upcoming Marvel Release Dates
Like Star Wars, the Marvel calendar is looking full on Disney+ when it comes to new and returning series. In fact, here’s the full list of all things Marvel coming to Disney+.
