Disney Plus and Meta have teamed up to offer “3D” versions of several movies through the Meta Quest 3 and 3S headsets. “Premium subscribers can enjoy select content on Meta Quest in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos,” the news release reads. The films are presented in “immersive themed environments” like Tatooine or the Scare Floor from Monsters, Inc. These 3D versions are included as part of a Disney Plus subscription (which keeps getting more expensive), provided you have Meta’s latest headset. In addition to these Meta Quest headsets, Meta’s upcoming VR Glasses will also support 3D films, but with “IMAX Enhanced content.” These $1,299.99 VR Glasses are set to release sometime in Spring 2027. What films are available to watch in 3D? As for Star Wars, the 3D catalog currently includes five of the six most recent Star Wars films: Episodes VII through IX, Rogue One, and The Mandalorian and Grogu. Star Wars: A New Hope is eventually getting the 3D treatment as well, which could end up being timed around the movie’s 50th anniversary on Feb. 19, 2027. Disney previously announced that A New Hope is getting an IMAX release next year, including its first-ever digital IMAX and 70mm showings. Beyond Star Wars, most of the Marvel movies are available in 3D, including all the Avengers films, the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy, and more. Other standouts include multiple Pixar flicks, like Toy Story 5 and Incredibles 2; the Avatar trilogy; Frozen 2; and the most recent Tron movies. What’s next for Star Wars in 2027?
