It’s happening — digital is going analog. Fans of Marvel, Star Wars, and/or physical media will be excited to hear that some Disney+ original shows will soon be available in Blu-ray and 4K UHD collections.
What’s Happening:
- Disney has announced that four new physical media sets will be released for select Marvel and Lucasfilm Disney+ shows.
- The initial slate includes:
- Loki: The Complete First Season: September 26, 2023
- WandaVision: The Complete Series: November 28, 2023
- The Mandalorian: The Complete First Season: December 12, 2023
- The Mandalorian: The Complete Second Season: December 12, 2023
- All four of these titles will be available to pre-order starting August 28th.
- These Collector’s Edition 4K UHD or Blu-ray collections will feature Steelbook packaging, concept art cards and some never-before-seen bonus features. The art for these collections comes from Attila Szarka.
- While full details have been announced for the Loki collection (which arrives just ahead of the show’s season season), at this time, only the art has been revealed for the subsequent sets.
Quick commentary:
- As awesome as it is that fans will finally be able to own some of these shows, it’d also be great if Disney released some of the films and shows that are no longer available on the streaming service such as The Mysterious Benedict Society.
