After a couple weeks of charming audiences in theaters and doing some decent box office numbers, Universal has set Dreamworks' The Wild Robot for 4K UHD and Blu-ray on December 3rd. If you can't wait for the physical release, it starts theater-at-home streaming on October 15th.
I may not completely understand the wherewithal decision-making by sending a film that's still earning solid box office dollars to digital so quickly, but, Universal has set this beautifully animated adaptation of Peter Brown's book series for a holiday disc release frame. I figured it'd come to digital sooner than later, but when your flick just outpaced Joker and hasn't dropped out of the Top-Five at the box office, October 15th (i.e. TOMORROW) sounds pretty damn fast for a Theater-At-Home release. Nevertheless, Universal is pulling a Fall Guy. This film will hit Blu-ray and 4K disc on December 3rd, no sight or sound of a retailer-exclusive or 3D Blu-ray as of yet.
Here's everything we're getting on disc:
