The Broken Lizard comedy troupe has officially returned to the small screen as Searchlight Pictures brings its latest feature, Super Troopers 3, to subscription streaming services. Following a theatrical run that began on August 7, 2026, and a digital retail launch in September, the R-rated comedy sequel makes its debut on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ in the United States on Thursday, November 5, 2026.

The streaming arrival marks a milestone for the comedy franchise, landing 25 years after the original 2001 movie first introduced audiences to the chaotic squad of Vermont state troopers. Directed by Jay Chandrasekhar and written by the Broken Lizard collective, the third installment reunites founding members Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, and Erik Stolhanske alongside a mix of returning veterans and new cast additions.

Streaming Details and Home Video Rollout

According to What's On Disney Plus, the November 5 streaming launch arrives roughly 90 days after the film first hit theaters. In the United States, subscribers can watch the movie directly through the Hulu app, where plans start at $12.49 per month, or via the Hulu on Disney+ hub for eligible bundle subscribers. Viewers outside the United States can access the film directly on Disney+ internationally starting the same day.

For audiences who prefer to own or rent the movie without a streaming subscription, Super Troopers 3 has been available on digital platforms since September 22, 2026, according to Just Jared. Digital retailers carrying the title include Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.

Physical media collectors also received an option just ahead of the subscription streaming rollout. Searchlight Pictures released the film on Blu-ray and DVD on November 3, 2026, with retail pricing set at $40.99 for the Blu-ray edition and $34.99 for the standard DVD, as detailed by Media Play News. Both the physical disc and digital retail releases include nearly 10 minutes of bonus supplemental material. The extras feature two brief deleted sequences—one involving the troopers pranking Farva with a new electronic patrol car—alongside a two-minute set and trailer tour hosted by actor Paul Soter, and a five-minute blooper reel where the cast jokes about their own screenplay.

Plot, Cast, and Franchise Evolution

The plot of the third entry revolves around an unexpected romantic crisis within the squad. After Farva (Heffernan) rescues Sarita (Hannah Simone)—the sister of squad leader Thorny (Chandrasekhar)—from a car wreck, the two enter a wild, over-the-top Indian engagement. Determined to prove to his family that Farva would make a terrible husband, Thorny schemes to use the debauchery of the bachelor party to break up the relationship before the wedding takes place.

While navigating the internal relationship drama, the troopers must also investigate a new drug smuggling operation. The case leads them to a pair of brothers played by Chace Crawford and Jon Rudnitsky, who were previously busted for marijuana possession. In a direct nod to Broken Lizard's filmmaking history—specifically Chandrasekhar's 2005 big-screen adaptation of The Dukes of Hazzard—the brothers drive a souped-up sports car featuring an American flag painted on the roof. The suspects live on a local farm with their cousin (Lisa Gilroy) and end up renting their barn out as the venue for Farva's wedding, tying the investigation and the nuptial chaos together.

Alongside the core five Broken Lizard members and the new additions, the ensemble cast brings back familiar franchise faces including Brian Cox, Marisa Coughlan, and Lynda Carter. Rounding out the supporting roster are Nat Faxon, Andrew Dismukes, Sakina Jaffrey, and Iqbal Theba.

The production timeline of the trilogy highlights how studio backing has shifted for the comedy group. After the original film became a cult hit in 2001, it took 17 years and a dedicated fan crowdfunding campaign to get Super Troopers 2 into theaters in 2018. Following The Walt Disney Company's acquisition of 20th Century Fox and its Searchlight banner, the studio greenlit and financed the third installment without the need for public crowdfunding, cutting the wait between sequels down to eight years.

To promote the home release, Searchlight Pictures and Broken Lizard also staged a three-day interactive fan activation at Los Angeles Comic Con at the Los Angeles Convention Center from October 30 through November 1, 2026, allowing convention attendees to step into a recreated scene from the movie and meet members of the comedy team.
