Have you seen Turning Red yet? My family saw this movie already and we love it! This has been one of our favorite movies so far on Disney. If you have Disney +, you can watch it now. It’s also already out on digital. It will be released on 4K, Blu-Ray and DVD on May 3rd as well if you’re waiting for it to come out then. I enjoyed this one so much and can’t wait to keep watching it more. I’ve already seen it a few times with my daughters. We love this one so much. I thought there was a lot to learn from this movie.

LOS ANGELES, CA (April 11, 2022) – Disney and Pixar’s Turning Red debuts on all major digital platforms April 26 and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on May 3, just in time for Mother’s Day. Pixar fans can transport back to the early aughts and experience all the warm and fuzzy red panda Mei-hem with never-before-seen bonus material including seven deleted scenes, three featurettes and audio commentary with Director Domee Shi. Turning Red is also streaming on Disney+.
Film Synopsis
In Disney and Pixar’s Turning Red, confident, dorky 13-year-old Mei must balance being a dutiful daughter with the chaos of adolescence. Her slightly overbearing mom is never far from her daughter. And, as if changes to Mei’s interests, relationships and body aren’t enough, whenever she gets too excited, she “poofs” into a giant red panda!
