The best action movies on Disney+ right now

If you’re looking for action on Disney+, then you’ve come to the right place. Marvel and Star Wars movies could give you all of the action you would ever need. Fortunately, Disney+ doesn’t stop there, and there are a number of animated and live-action Disney projects which hold up as great action flicks in their own right. For the moment, there are only three R-rated films on Disney+, but the rest are fairly family-friendly. So keep that in mind when making selections from our list of the best action movies on Disney+ right now. Forty-five years ago, director George Lucas changed the landscape forever with Star Wars. From this single miracle of a movie spawned a franchise that remains to this day. But the original film, A New Hope, is still among the best sci-fi flicks ever created. While Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) and the Rebel Alliance attempt to evade Darth Vader (David Prowse with the voice of James Earl Jones), she entrusts the plans of the Death Star to two droids on a barren world. From there, Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), and a scoundrel named Han Solo (Harrison Ford) will attempt a daring rescue to free Leia before facing the full might of the Empire itself.
Love on the Spectrum is one of the best and most heartwarming reality shows. Originally set in Australia, Love on the Spectrum is a dating show centered around people on the autism spectrum looking for love and guidance on dating.

Gold & Greed: The Hunt for Fenn’s Treasure (2025)
Sci-fi fans, is it fair for Hulu to take away all of the Alien and Predator movies for a few months and then trot them back out as if they’re fresh additions to the library? Those films should have permanent places among the best sci-fi movies on Hulu, rather than seasonal passes.
Before we eventually readmit some of those films to this roundup, we’re throwing the spotlight on a new arrival called O’Dessa, starring Sadie Sink, who was recently cast in the next Spider-Man film. Our other pick for the month is The Prestige, which does veer into science fiction territory in a uniquely entertaining way. You can find these films and the rest of the best sci-fi movies on Hulu below.
