The One and Only Ivan is a heartwarming family film about the titular Ivan, a 400-pound silverback gorilla who lives with a range of other animals in a shopping mall. The cast is stacked full of stars including Sam Rockwell as the voice of Ivan, with Angelina Jolie (who also produces), Danny DeVito, Helen Mirren, Chaka Khan and Ron Funches also on board to lend their voices. Bryan Cranston, meanwhile, leads the live-action cast.

The other highlight of today’s haul is 2017’s Beauty and the Beast. Yes, the live-action remake of the 1991 animated classic, starring Emma Watson and Dan Stevens as the fairy tale couple, is finally up on D+. With the original movie already available on the site, you can now watch both versions of the tale as old as time back to back this weekend if you feel like it. Remember, a spinoff series for Luke Evans’ Gaston and Josh Gad’s LeFou is on the way, too.
