The movie starring Tina Fey, Margot Robbie, Martin Freeman, and Billy Bob Thornton deploys to Blu-ray next month.
In an early announcement to retailers, Paramount will be releasing 'Whiskey Tango Foxtrot' on Blu-ray on June 28.
Based on real-life reporter Kim Barker’s revealing and funny memoir about covering the war beat in the Middle East, WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT is a sharp and savvy film that critics are calling “boldly entertaining” (Stephanie Zacharek, Time). A satirical take on combat journalists and an illuminating story of self-discovery, the film follows Kim (Fey) as she decides to shake things up by taking a dangerous assignment in Afghanistan. There, in the midst of chaos, Kim discovers her true strength as she risks it all to find the next big story. The film features an all-star ensemble cast including Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street, Suicide Squad), Martin Freeman (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey), Billy Bob Thornton (“Fargo”), and Alfred Molina (Spider-Man 2).
The Blu-ray combo pack will feature a DTS:X soundtrack and supplements will include: All In: The Making of Whiskey Tango Foxtrot; War Reporter: The Real Kim; Embedded In Reality – Find out how the military played a pivotal role in bringing the movie to life; Wedding Party - Delve into the rich Afghan culture with a fun featurette on the joyous wedding celebration from the film; Laughing Matters – See how the characters relied on drinking, partying and other vices to cope with the constant threat of danger; and Deleted and Extended Scenes.
