Being someone who grew up during the VHS era, I remember full well what it was like to seemingly wait forever for a movie to arrive on home video. And though the turnaround gradually lessened over the years, I didn’t ever think a three-month window would become the standard – especially for films that rake in more than $2 billion over the course of their theatrical runs.
Speaking of which, you’ll be able to add Avengers: Infinity War to your personal collection soon enough. Right now, I could make the obligatory and highly appropriate “faster than you can snap your fingers” joke, but I’m guessing it won’t take you one month to accomplish that.
So, if you’ve been keeping up with the latest news pertaining to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, you probably figured that a full unveiling of the home video release was right around the corner. Factoring in an extended Blu-ray trailer dropping earlier today, I’d certainly say you were right.
As it turns out, we’re now able to bring you the full rundown of bonus content that’ll be offered, in addition to the cover art (seen above). Fortunately, Disney opted to once again make use of my favorite promotional poster, which happens to be the one where Iron Man looks like he’s telling everybody to make room because he’s about to bust a move.
Getting back to the subject of extras, here’s what you can expect to find:
Strange Alchemy (5:08)– Share the thrill of characters from across the MCU meeting for the first time—and discover why some were teamed up together.
The Mad Titan (6:34) – Explore the MCU’s biggest, baddest villain, his trail of influence through the stories, and the existential threat he represents.
Beyond the Battle: Titan (9:36) – Dive into the climactic struggle on Thanos’ ruined world, including the epic stunts and VFX, to uncover the source of its power.
Beyond the Battle: Wakanda (10:58) – Go behind the scenes to find out how the filmmakers pulled off the most massive and challenging battle Marvel had ever attempted.
