The live-action version of Cinderella from 2015 has been removed from Disney+ in the United States. The film was just made available on the streaming service at the beginning of September.
The removal came as a bit of a surprise since Disney+ does not announce which titles will be leaving every month as Netflix and Hulu does.
Cinderella can now be found on Sling in the United States. Disney hasn’t announced when the movie will be returning to Disney+. The movie is still available on Disney+ in other countries.
Update: Cinderella will be arriving on STARZ August 6, 2021. It’s expected to remain there for at least a year.
You can view a trailer of the film below:
After her father’s untimely death, the lovely and kind-hearted Cinderella (Ella) is relegated to third-class status by her cruel stepmother and narcissistic stepsisters. But when Ella meets a handsome young man and her fairy godmother magically appears, Ella’s fortunes seem to change overnight. That is, until her wicked family steps in.
The film stars Downton Abbey’s Lily James as Cinderella, with Cate Blanchett as the Wicked Stepmother.
As a Disney+ subscriber I should be able to see any Disney movie anytime I want. That’s the reason I signed up for the service. Otherwise why not just stay with Netflix or one of the other streaming platforms?
This was exactly my thought!!! My daughter will be 10 next month, and this was the first movie she ever saw in theatres so it holds a certain nostalgia for both of us.. and when I couldn’t find it I was SUPER disappointed!!! Not to mention it truly is a fantastic real life version!
I agree totally. Disney is showing that they are into playing games like “bait and switch”. I used to trust Disney completely but not any more. Now every time they say something I don’t believe it.
AGREED! Out of all the Cinderella movies (and there are a lot), including spin offs, this is probably my favorite. I feel like anything created by Disney should be on Disney plus. No questions.
I agree definitely, this is not very convenient 😞😞😵😔😔☹️
this is so stupid im still mad why would they take it off it’s such a great movie 😐
Such crap and honestly I’m pretty ticked off about. I do not think I will keep paying for it if this is how they plan on removing things. I waited so long for beauty and the beast and Cinderella so if they pull this again I’m done
I wanted to play the new Cinderella for one of my patients which is why I subscribed to Disney+ in the first place. I love this movie and am completely disappointed that they removed it. Please put it back Disney+.
I’m so mad they removed this movie
Paying for disney + each month was so i wouldn’t have to buy every Disney movie. As a 90s kid i already own just about every classic disney movie i can think of on VHS. But being able to have them all in one place is the best part of disney +. But now ill have to pay for amazon prime so i can rent the movies you remove with no warning? If this continues im sure i won’t be the only person deleting my subscription.
I think they removed it due to the scandal surrounding Lily at the time because as soon as it happened Cinderella was mysteriously gone from Disney plus…
What scandal?
I, too am upset! Why am I paying for disney+ subscription and now I’m having to watch the live action Cinderella on FreeForm with commercials?!? What a ripoff.
I wish this movie will come back to USA and never remove forever.
