Universal Pictures Home Entertainment Locks Into Mar. 21 For Director Gerard Johnstone's M3GAN

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment announced this past week that director Gerard Johnstone’s robotic creep-out tale, M3GAN, will be arriving in the home entertainment packaged media marketplace on Mar. 21 as both DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack editions.

The ARR is 74 days and domestic box office receipts are a rock-solid $91 million and likely to continue to expand in the weeks ahead … the film has marvelous legs and will likely spawn not only a sequel (M3GAN 2.0 target for early 2025), but a film franchise series.

Although star billing goes to Allison Williams (Horizon Line, The Perfection, Get Out … and as Marnie in the Girls TV series) as Aunt Gemma, the developer of the Model 3 Generative Android, and Violet McGraw (Separation, Doctor Sleep) as her niece, Cady, the eight-year-old who is the target of M2GAN’s “affections,” the super-star of the film is gymnast/dancer Amie Donald (voiced by Jenna Davis), who gives an over-the-top performance as the pychopathic android with a mind of its own.

Bonus goodies include a trio of production featurettes — “A New Vision of Horror,” “Bringing Life to M3GAN” and “Getting Hacked.”
