There are a lot of things that are going well outside of the house, Cramer said, adding "I think the story is changing." 

Disney stock isn't just a COVID-19 pandemic play, it's a post-pandemic play for the reopening, he said.

Cramer told CNBC that people want to get out of the house and they want to go to places like Disney World.

Disney is scheduled to report financial results on Aug. 12.

DIS Price Action: Disney has traded as high as $203.02 and as low as $113.37 over a 52-week period.
