After opening in April to widespread acclaim from critics and audiences alike, Jon Favreau’s live-action adaptation of The Jungle Book has grossed over $911 million worldwide. And on August 23rd, you can snag your digital copy of the family favorite, a week before it hits store shelves.
While that earlier date may be enticing for those of you who are clamoring to see the film again, the Blu-Ray will be worth the wait. The behind-the-scenes features will give us a glimpse into the intricacies and artistry behind Favreau’s ambitious production, and (fingers crossed) they may even take us into the studio to watch Bill Murray, Idris Elba and Lupita Nyong’o craft their characters.
Details remain shrouded in secrecy, but one thing’s for sure: the Blu-Ray will give you much more than the bare necessities.
