Disney on Monday announced Thor: Love and Thunderwill arrive on Disney+ on September 8. The release window is comparable to recent cinematic releases that made their way to Disney+ a few weeks later.

• What 'Ted Lasso' has to do with 'Thor: Love and Thunder'
• Omnipotence City is 'Thor: Love and Thunder's biggest wasted opportunity
• All the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, ranked worst to best

The movie released July 8 in theatres, so seven weeks would take us to August 26. Therefore, a September 8 release date is relatively close to fitting the pattern of previous releases.
