Once Upon a Snowman via Disney+

Frozen is by far one of the most successful franchises from the Walt Disney Animation Studio, and they are now serving yet another really great slice of this beautiful universe with Once Upon a Snowman. We're going to watch Once Upon a Snowman online, and we thought you'd want to join us as well.

Once Upon a Snowman tells the story of the innocent and insightful snowman that Elsa brings to life in the first movie. Olaf is easily one of the most wonderful and beloved characters - and has been since Frozen's 2014 release. The love of Olaf was only strengthened in 2019 when the second film was released.

This new Disney film follows Olaf's first steps as he comes to life and tries to find his identity in the mountains around Arendelle. It's certainly going to be an excellent film, and we are quite eager to enjoy it all. Plus, we get to appreciate Josh Gad again, so it's definitely a great bonus.

When and Where to Watch Once Upon a Snowman?

Once Upon a Snowman is an original short film that will be released on Disney+ on October 23rd. Read below how to watch it.

How Can I Stream Once Upon a Snowman?

If you're hoping to watch Once Upon a Snowman online, then you have a single option since this short is an original Disney+ creation. This means you're going to watch Once Upon a Snowman with a Disney+ subscription, which is fairly easy to get. 

In fact, in order to subscribe to Disney+, you'll have to pay a subscription that will cost you $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. You can also go for the subscription option that bundles up Disney+ with ESPN+ and Hulu, which should help you enjoy all of these services for $12.99 per month.

The Disney+ subscription brings you access to a ton of original content, as well as movies and series that Disney has created over the past decades. Disney+ also features content from Marvel, Star Wars, and the fantastic National Geographic, so you can definitely enjoy some of those beautiful documentaries, as well.

Disney+ has apps for pretty much any movie platform you want to, including iOS and Android smartphones and tablets, Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Roku, and quite a few others.

Can I Watch Once Upon a Snowman Elsewhere?

Unfortunately, since this is a show created specifically for Disney+, there won't be other platforms to enjoy it on. Perhaps, sometime in the future, we'll get to watch the short on Hulu as well. But, at this point in time, there is no other alternative.

It's also unlikely that you'll get to purchase this short film. Even if it were put up for purchase on platforms like Google Play or iTunes, it would be a lot more expensive than it is to subscribe to Disney+.
