'Lilo & Stitch' releases on digital VOD: Where to watch
The live-action reimagining of Disney's beloved animated classic officially made its way onto select digital platforms on July 22, a couple months after the film premiered in U.S. theaters.
"(Lilo & Stitch) brings new energy into the hilarious and heart-warming tale of Lilo and her cute-yet-chaotic adopted 'pet' Stitch," Disney said in a statement. "Lush tropical settings provide welcoming visuals as warm as the 'found family' that Lilo and Stitch create together, while also authentically honoring the cultures and beauty of Hawai'i."
The remake has proved to be a profitable venture for Disney, grossing approximately $1 billion (and counting) at the global box office. Given its significant commercial success, it should come as no surprise that a sequel is "currently in development," according to Disney.
USA TODAY's Brian Truitt gave the film ★★½ out of four, writing that "Director Dean Fleischer Camp's family adventure feels like an excessively earnest Disney Channel movie compared with the delightfully unhinged 2002 cartoon."
"That's great for those who want more of a human connection but not so much if you're more jazzed about Stitch wrecking a bunch of stuff," Truitt adds.
Here's what to know about the "Lilo & Stitch" digital release, including when it will be available to stream.

The White House is feuding with ‘The View.' Here's why.
From late-night show hosts to the animated sitcom South Park, the feud between President Donald Trump and the entertainment industry shows no signs of slowing down. Now the administration finds itself in a dispute with ABC's 'The View' after a White House spokesperson suggested the long-time talk show could be coming to an end. The comment comes after CBS canceled late-night comedy 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' after 33 years, a decision Trump celebrated on social media. During a July 23 episode, co-host Joy Behar said Trump is jealous of former President Barack Obama because 'Obama is everything that he is not.' She added that, unlike Trump, Obama is 'trim, smart, handsome, happily married, and can sing Al Green's song 'Let's Stay Together' better than Al Green. And Trump cannot stand it. It's driving him crazy.' Following the dig, White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers referred to Behar as 'an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.' 'It's no surprise that The View's ratings hit an all-time low last year. She should self-reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump's historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off air,' Rogers said in a statement. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives of 'The View' for comment on Rogers' statement. When asked for a comment on behalf of Behar, her manager Bill Stankey told USA TODAY, 'On behalf of me……..Release the Epstein files.' In May, Attorney General Pam Bondi had reportedly told Trump that his name appears several times throughout the criminal case files on the late financier and convicted sex offender Epstein, according to CNN and the Wall Street Journal. How did this start? The latest tension between the White House and 'The View' started after an Oval Office meeting with Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos on July 22, when Trump accused Obama of treason. The president called the Democrat a 'ringleader,' adding that his actions were 'seditious.' Later that day, Obama addressed a July 18 report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence that claimed the former president 'manufactured and politicized intelligence to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup' against Trump's presidential victory against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2016. Obama also said he supported the U.S. intelligence community's conclusion that Russia tried to influence the 2016 election. He dismissed the allegations against him, calling them the typical 'nonsense and misinformation' emerging from the Trump White House. On the next morning's episode of 'The View,' Behar defended Obama with a sly remark against Trump regarding the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. 'First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on Jan. 6? Who was that again? That was not Obama,' she quipped. Late-night talk show hosts also make jabs at Trump Before the beef with Behar, Trump was at odds with his usual late-night foes, starting with Colbert, who during a July 17 episode announced that 'The Late Show' would be ending in May 2026. 'I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings,' Trump wrote on Truth Social July 18. He later made a jab at ABC's Jimmy Kimmel, insinuating that his show would be the next to end and that he 'has even less talent than Colbert.' Kicking off his July 21 episode monologue, Colbert asked, 'How dare you, sir?' 'Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go (expletive) yourself,' Colbert said. Trump fired back on a July 22 Truth Social post, writing: 'The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, (Jimmy) Fallon will be gone.' 'These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It's really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!' the president wrote. Fallon's show is slated to continue until at least the end of 2028 when his contract with NBCUniversal ends. In 2022, Kimmel extended his contract through his show's current 23rd season.

‘Ginger Twinsies' review: Campy off-Broadway ‘Parent Trap' parody is millennial catnip
Theater review GINGER TWINSIES 80 minutes with no intermission. At the Orpheum Theatre, 126 Second Ave. Am I seeing double? If the answer is 'yes' at 'Ginger Twinsies,' you might be suffering from heatstroke. Because the funniest bit of writer-director Kevin Zak's stage parody of 'The Parent Trap' that opened Thursday night at the Orpheum Theatre in the East Village is the title characters' complete lack of resemblance. Advertisement The 11-year-old twin sisters, Hallie and Annie, both played by pasty, redheaded Lindsay Lohan in the 1998 film, are taken on here by a white guy, Russell Daniels, and a black woman, Aneesa Folds. They're a pair of hilarious adults, with Red Bull coursing through their veins, who couldn't look less alike. It's ludicrous that the girls' estranged parents, posh British fashion designer Elizabeth (Lakisha May) and salt-of-the-earth Napa Valley vintner Nick (Matthew Wilkas), can't tell these obviously different people apart. But we go along with it. And the result, stupid as it gets, is very funny. The entire off-its-rocker off-Broadway show, whose sole sin is occasionally trying too hard, is lovably loony. So, for that matter, is watching a room full of millennials, drunk on nostalgia, mouthing every word and knowing every beat of a 27-year-old kid's movie. Advertisement If you're 29 to 44 and fall into the 'Parent Trap' obsessive category, that would be a fruitful topic to bring up with your therapist next time. If you don't, well, congratulations. The Disney language barrier of 'Ginger Twinsies' will take a few minutes to ease into. But once you get the gist — and it ain't hard — the comedy amounts to an onslaught of wrecking-ball subtle jokes, barked so loud by the eight-person cast that the bowls of borscht a block away at Veselka vibrate. 4 Aneesa Folds and Russell Daniels star as Hallie and Annie in 'Ginger Twinsies.' Matthew Murphy 4 Lindsay Lohan's breakout role was as both twins in the 1998 film. Courtesy Everett Collection Advertisement Zak's smart realization is that 'The Parent Trap' actually functions as a solid stage farce. All the pieces are there: mistaken identities, a love triangle, English accents. Amping up the mischief, since the adult-aimed play can kick the cute movie's PG rating to the curb, plenty of sex humor is tossed in. As in the Nancy Meyers flick, after British Annie and American Hallie unexpectedly meet at summer camp and discover they're long-lost sisters, they decide to swap personas. Hallie jets to London and Annie heads to California to meet mom and dad and, eventually, force them back together. From there, 'Ginger Twinsies' takes fond childhood memories and stomps on them with ruthless mockery, a trivia night's worth of 1990s and aughts pop culture references, filthy humor and nuclear energy. Frankly, at times the show is too high-pitched; a Lindsay's Boot Camp at which even the slightest break is not permitted. So few breaths are taken, the actors' faces become redder than their wigs. Advertisement 4 The one-act comedy sends up Nancy Meyers' 1998 Disney movie. Matthew Murphy The octet runs like hamsters on a wheel on Beowulf Boritt's cabin set covered in kitschy cutouts. Think Big Ben hand-drawn in Crayola. But when the play confidently finds its groove in the middle, the Napa and London scenes, the ensemble's comedic skills knock us over like Lindsay Lohan was in that amnesia Christmas movie. Phillip Taratula is a scream as Meredith — Nick's viperous 26-year-old fiancée. The actor plays the misunderstood minx as a pantomime villain, who enters wearing an absurdly large hat only to take it off to reveal smaller and smaller versions of the same accessory. 4 As Meredith, Phillip Taratula enters wearing a gigantic hat. Matthew Murphy As the household help, Jimmy Ray Bennett sneeringly hops between upper-crust butler Martin and Annie's grandpa by barely lifting a hand-held mustache to his lip. And Grace Reiter plays vineyard worker Chessy like she's Roseanne Barr singing the National Anthem. In what could hardly be called a twist, Wilkas' Nick, the Dennis Quaid role in the movie, takes a sleeveless Village People turn. And May's Elizabeth goes on a hotel bender, making Whitney Houston cracks. The Orpheum's most famous tenant, 'Stomp,' opened years before 'The Parent Trap' hit theaters, and closed in 2023 after nearly three decades. Since then, the tricky venue has been something of a Goldilocks. Advertisement Some shows have proved too boffo. Others have been too amateurish or niche. While I don't suspect 'Ginger Twinsies' will find much of an audience beyond Disney+ subscriber millennials or curious St. Mark's bar-flies, it's the first tenant there in two years to strike me as just right.
