Daisy Ridley tackles a harrowing true story in another movie role, and there are different options for where to watch Young Woman and the Sea. The 2024 biographical drama stars the actress best known for playing Rey in the Star Wars franchise. Young Woman and the Sea‘s true story sees Ridley play competitive swimmer Trudy Ederle, who became the first woman to swim across the English Channel in 1926. The film is directed by Joachim Rønning, who previously directed Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil for Walt Disney Studios.
Development on Young Woman and the Sea originally began at Paramount, but Disney took over the production later on. The film was envisioned as a Disney+ release during the initial phases of Disney’s involvement. However, the studio changed Young Woman and the Sea‘s release plans after seeing how it all came together and the success of The Boys in the Boat and Nyad. Those interested in seeing another of Daisy Ridley’s movies now have the opportunity to do so through different formats.

When Will Young Woman And The Sea Release On Streaming?
Young Woman And The Sea Will Stream On Disney Plus
Young Woman and the Sea‘s streaming release date has not been confirmed. As a Disney release, it is known that the movie will stream on Disney+ when the time comes. The studio typically has longer exclusive theatrical runs than the rest of Hollywood, but Young Woman and the Sea‘s streaming release plan could be different since its theatrical release is only for a limited time. The shortest window to move a film from theaters to streaming that Disney has used recently is 62 days. This would mean Young Woman and the Sea could be released on Disney+ in August 2024.
When Will Young Woman And The Sea Release On Digital?
No Digital Release Date Has Been Announced
Those wanting to watch Young Woman and the Sea at home without needing a streaming service subscription can do so through its digital release. Disney has not confirmed the film’s PVOD release date. The studio’s shortest gap with other modern releases is 46 days. It is possible that there could be an option to buy or rent Young Woman and the Sea in July 2024. This could happen much sooner if Young Woman and the Sea‘s theatrical release does not last long.
