Han’s solo flight is coming home to Blu-ray and DVD in September.
Disney and Lucasfilm have today announced a September 25th launch date for Solo: A Star Wars Story‘s home video release, when budding fans will be able to purchase either the Blu-ray 4K Ultra HD version, or the regular old Blu-ray.
DVD copies will also be available for you purists out there, though if you’re wanting to skip ahead of the queue, you’ll be pleased to hear that Solo has set a course for a digital debut on September 14th, when the Anthology flick will also go live via Disney’s Movies Anywhere service.
As for bonus content, Star Wars enthusiasts can look forward to eight deleted/extended scenes, including “Proxima’s Den,” “Corellian Foot Chase,” “Han Solo: Imperial Cadet,” “The Battle of Mimban: Extended,” “Han Versus Chewie: Extended,” “Snowball Fight!,” “Meet Dryden: Extended,” “Coaxium Double-Cross.”
