Top 5 Titles Coming to Disney+ in September 2023; ‘Little Mermaid,’ ‘I Am Groot’ Season 2, ‘Doc McStuffins,’ More

The start of September means kids and parents have less time together, as school gets back in session and the days begin to get shorter and shorter. That makes the quality time families have together even more important, which is why Disney+ is bringing some fantastic new titles to its platform this month.

New episodes of “Ahsoka” will continue to debut every Tuesday in September, but the headliner of this month is the new live-action adaptation of “The Little Mermaid” that makes its streaming debut! Check it out below, along with the other top 5 titles The Streamable is most excited for on Disney+ this month!

What Are the Best Shows and Movies Coming to Disney+ in September 2023?

‘The Little Mermaid’ | Wednesday, Sept. 6

It’s a classic tale that fans know by heart, brought to life in a new and amazing way. Ariel dreams of a life on land, and yearns for more knowledge of what goes on beyond the sea. She makes a pact with Urusla the sea witch that allows her to experience life out of the water, but she unknowingly places herself and everything she holds dear in jeopardy by doing so. This live-action version of the Disney animated classic has three new songs, and Lin-Manuel Miranda helped create the soundtrack.
