Lionsgate Home Entertainment Looks To Feb. 19 For The Home Entertainment Launch Of Director Otto Bathurst’s Robin Hood


DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey
Lionsgate Home Entertainment announced this past week that a three-SKU helping of director Otto Bathurst’s Robin Hood will be ready for consumers to pick through on Feb. 19.   

This is a re-imagining of the Robin of Loxley fable — that would be the legendary Crusader (played by Taron Egerton — Kingsman: The Secret Service, Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Billionaire Boys Club, etc.) who returned home with a Moorish companion (Jamie Foxx — Baby Driver, White House Down, etc.) and together they set about to right the wrongs perpetrated by the Sheriff of Nottingham (Ben Mendelsohn) in his absence.

The ARR is 88 days and box office receipts from the film’s Thanksgiving Holiday launch currently stand at $30.8 million.  It did not perform as was hoped by the studio during its theatrical run (perhaps the home entertainment marketplace will be more receptive).

Planned for home entertainment distribution are a stand-alone DVD edition, a Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack selection and a 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack presentation.

Bonus features in include deleted scenes, outtakes and the seven-part “documentary” titled “Outlaws and Auteurs: Reshaping Robin Hood.”
