Disney's Lilo & Stitch, the blockbuster live-action adaptation of the 2002 animated classic, is coming soon to digital streaming.
Lilo & Stitch opened in theaters on May 23. In the film, a furry blue alien experiment gone awry is sent to Earth where he lands in Hawaii and befriends Lilo (Maia Kealoha) and an orphan being cared for by her teenage sister, Nani (Sydney Agudong).
Before too long, Stitch (voice of the animated film's director Chris Sanders), who is believed to be a dog — and a very mischievous one at that — helps the heartbroken Lilo and Nani feel like they have a family again.
Directed by Marcel the Shell with Shoes On filmmaker Dean Fleischer Camp, Lilo & Stitch also stars Zach Galifianakis, Billy Magnussen, Tia Carrere, Courtney B. Vance, Amy Hill and Kaipo Dudoit and the voice of Hannah Waddingham.
Lilo & Stitch is expected to arrive on digital streaming via premium video on demand on Tuesday, July 22, as confirmed by a new listing on Prime Video. The film is available for pre-order for purchase for $29.99. Since PVOD rentals are typically $5 less, Lilo & Stitch will be available to rent for 48 hours for $24.99.
In addition to Prime Video, the film will be available to purchase or rent on PVOD on a variety of digital outlets, including Apple TV, Fandango at Home and YouTube.
How Was 'Lilo & Stitch' Received by Audiences And Critics?
Lilo & Stitch to date has made $415.6 million in domestic ticket sales and $580.1 million internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $995.8 million against a $100 million production budget before prints and advertising costs, per The Numbers.
The film earned a 71% 'fresh' rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 206 reviews.
The RT Critics Consensus reads, 'Recapturing the adorable charm of the original if not quite matching its rambunctious sense of imagination, Lilo & Stitch emerges out of the crate as one of the better live-action remakes of a Disney classic.'
Audiences, meanwhile, gave Lilo & Stitch a 92% 'fresh' Popcornmeter score based on 10,000-plus verified user ratings. The RT audience summary reads, 'Old and new fans beware: Cuteness and mischief team up in Lilo & Stitch to make sure nobody gets left behind.'
Rated PG, Lilo & Stitch will be released on PVOD on July 22.

'Media Buzz' host Howard Kurtz said that CBS axed Stephen Colbert simply to gain Trump's approval.

Fox News host Howard Kurtz isn't buying that CBS axed Stephen Colbert solely for financial reasons. Kurtz called out CBS' parent company Paramount on Media Buzz Sunday, accusing it of cancelling The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in order to gain President Donald Trump's approval. 'This is about Shari Redstone, who needs Trump administration approval to have this sale to Skydance go through and make a lot of money, in my view, really tarnishing the network of Murrow and Cronkite,' Kurtz told guest Brian Steinberg, who is a senior TV editor at Variety.
