Now That's What I Call Disney is a compilation album from the Now! series released in the United Kingdom as a 3-disc set on November 21, 2011.

The US version, at 20 tracks, contains songs only from Disney and Pixar animated features. In the United States, Now That's What I Call Disney 2 was released on November 2013 and Now That's What I Call Disney 3 was released on October 2014.

Reception
Reviews for the UK edition say it's "pretty hard not to love this album" and "a perfect Christmas treat for anyone with children, grandchildren or a sense of nostalgia".
In his review of the US version for Allmusic, John Bush claims that the album "is understandably heavy on films that came after Disney's '90s renaissance," but also says "the collection finds plenty of space for songs from the earlier generation of Disney classics."
