When did Ballerina come out?

Streaming catalogs change, and that listing does not establish availability in other countries or guarantee that it remains available; check the service in your territory for its current status. Hulu labels it a 2026 movie on the catalog page, but that is a catalog label, not the film’s original U.S. release year.
