Pixar’s "Elemental" Gets Streaming Release Date

Pixar's 27th feature “Elemental” will hit Disney+ worldwide on September, coming 89 days after the movie’s theatrical open.

Alongside the streaming premiere of “Elemental,” Disney+ also will debut that day the making-of documentary “Good Chemistry: The Story of Elemental,” as well as Pixar Animation Studios short “Carl’s Date,” featuring the fan-favorite talking dog Dug from 2009’s “Up.”

At the box office, “Elemental” stumbled out of the gate with the worst opening weekend in Pixar’s history — before rebounding over the subsequent theatrical run. In 11 weeks, the movie grossed $153.6 million domestically with a global haul of $480 million, per Box Office Mojo.

“Elemental” is set in Element City, where Fire, Water, Earth and Air residents live together. 

The movie introduces Ember (voiced by Leah Lewis), whose friendship with a fun and sappy guy named Wade (Mamoudou Athie) challenges her beliefs about the world they live in. 

Directed by Peter Sohn, produced by Denise Ream and executive produced by Pete Docter, “Elemental” features a screenplay by John Hoberg & Kat Likkel and Brenda Hsueh with story by Sohn, Hoberg & Likkel, and Hsueh.
