“Hamilton” is coming to Disney+ in July, and that’s really all you need to know.
Sure, the Walt Disney Co. DIS, +0.57% streaming service is also adding a new Muppets series, “Muppets Now” (July 31), and movies like “Solo: A Star Wars Story” (July 10) and “The Mighty Ducks” (July 3), but the one true highlight will be the filmed version of the Broadway smash, starring Lin-Manuel Miranda and the rest of the original cast. “Hamilton” was scheduled to be released in theaters in October 2021, but due to the pandemic, it’ll drop instead on July 3, just in time for Fourth of July celebrations, which are likely to be more indoors this year.
