The Disney+ streaming platform will begin offering Pixar Animation’s theatrical release Lightyear on Aug. 3.

“Lightyear looks amazing on the big screen, of course, but we are so excited to bring it to Disney+,” Angus MacLane, director of the movie, said in a statement. “We devoted years of our lives to this film and we are so proud of it. We want to share it with as many people as possible. Disney+ not only gives more fans an opportunity to see Lightyear, it gives us all the means to see it again and again.”
