When Will Dear Evan Hansen Be On Disney Plus
Okay, let's talk about something that's been low-key stressing me out: Dear Evan Hansen and Disney Plus. I need it. Like, yesterday.
We all know Disney owns basically everything, right? Seriously, they're like the world's biggest entertainment vacuum cleaner. So, where's our awkward, anxiety-ridden musical masterpiece?
The Streaming Struggle is Real
Right now, Dear Evan Hansen chills on other platforms. You can rent or buy it on places like Amazon Prime Video. But that's not the same! I need it nestled amongst the Disney classics. And, you know, the Marvel movies I've seen approximately 87 times.
Must Read
Maybe it's a rights issue? Perhaps some legal shenanigans are holding it hostage? Whatever the reason, I'm impatiently tapping my foot.
My Unpopular Opinion (Maybe?)
Here's a confession. I actually... liked the Dear Evan Hansen movie. I know! I know! Hear me out!
Yes, Ben Platt was maybe a tad too old. Okay, way too old. But the songs? Still slappin'. And the message, while flawed, still resonated with me.
Plus, I genuinely enjoy the "Sincerely Me" number. Fight me. (Just kidding… mostly.)
Why Disney Plus Makes Sense
Think about it. Disney Plus is already a haven for musicals. We've got Hamilton. We've got the Newsies pro-shot. We even have High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. (Try saying that five times fast.)
Dear Evan Hansen would fit right in! It would be like welcoming a slightly emo cousin to the family reunion. A cousin who might need a hug and a therapist.
And imagine the singalongs! Okay, maybe not singalongs. More like quiet, introspective humming. But still!
Let's Get Real (But Still Be Funny)
Look, I get that Dear Evan Hansen isn't everyone's cup of tea. It deals with heavy themes: anxiety, depression, suicide. That's intense stuff.
But Disney Plus isn't just for kids anymore. They're aiming for a broader audience. And Gen Z? They're all about the real feels. This movie, despite its imperfections, explores those feelings.
Plus, think of the subscription revenue! Disney would be swimming in money. Just saying.
So, When?!
The question remains: When will Disney Plus finally give the people what they want? When will they liberate Dear Evan Hansen from streaming purgatory?
Is there a secret handshake I need to learn? A ritualistic dance I must perform under a full moon? Tell me! I'm desperate!
In the meantime, I guess I'll just keep re-watching the soundtrack on YouTube. And maybe sending strongly worded (but polite!) tweets to Disney. One can dream, right?
My Final Plea (For Now)
Disney, if you're reading this (and let's be honest, you probably aren't), please hear my plea. Add Dear Evan Hansen to Disney Plus! Make my awkward musical dreams come true!
Do it for the theater kids. Do it for the anxious adults. Do it for the memes!
Do it... because I asked nicely. (With a hint of desperation.)
Until then, I’ll just be here, waiting. And humming “Waving Through a Window.” Hopefully, I won’t have to wait too much longer.
