Warner Bros. has confirmed that Interstellar will enter near-Earth orbit on March 31, when Christopher Nolan’s cerebral sci-fi will become available on Blu-Ray.

Charting the bold and ambitious endeavours of Matthew McConaughey and Co., Nolan’s latest takes place in the not-so-distant and terrifyingly believable future where humanity is clutching at straws to resolve the planet’s crippling food crisis. With unforgiving dust storms forcing the remnants of society back to their agrarian roots, a small band of survivors pull together to go boldly where no man has gone before, entering a wormhole in the hope of finding a new habitable planet to call their own. Joining McConaughey for the mind-bending journey are Anne Hathaway, Wes Bentley and two wise-cracking AI robots known as TARS and CASE.

When it released last year, many moviegoers were chomping at the bit to see Interstellar in all of its grandeur, hunting down the biggest screen and widest format they could possibly find. Unfortunately, that time has passed, but much like the majority of films in Nolan’s backlog, his bold sci-fi odyssey pretty much demands a repeat viewing, and we can’t wait to have our knowledge of phyiscs pushed to breaking point — and beyond! — when the movie docks on Blu-Ray on March 31.
