On the first Friday of the month, we have several films made available to stream which fans will definitely want to check out. These include 2010’s video game adaptation Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, family animated flick The Peanuts Movie and X-Men, the original entry in the Fox franchise which celebrated its 20th anniversary this very week. Speaking of Marvel films, the MCU’s Ant-Man and the Wasp is likewise added the following week.

In the second half of the month, some of the most notable additions include the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast, Johnny Depp sequel Alice Through the Looking Glass and, again with Marvel, 2005’s Fantastic Four. The 2015 version turned up on the site the other month, but this is probably the one you’ll prefer to watch again. Across August, there’s also new episodes of Muppets Now, One Day at Disney and Weird But True coming every Friday.

It’s going to be a good month for Marvel fans, then, but let us know what you’re looking forward to catching on Disney Plus in August in the comments section below.
