Universal Pictures Home Entertainment Circles Dec. 3 On Its Physical Media Release Calendar For The 4K Ultra HD Debut Of Writer/Director Edgar Wright's Shaun Of The Dead

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment has a newly-minted 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack edition of writer/director Edgar Wright’s Shaun of the Dead — a twentieth anniversary edition at that — ready for delivery on Dec. 3.

Bonus delights begin with four — yes, count’em four — commentary options!   The first features writer/director Edgar Wright and actor/co-writer Simon Pegg, the second option is with cast members Simon Pegg (as Shaun), Nick Frost (Ed), Kate Ashfield (Liz), Lucy Davis (Dianne) and Dylan Moran (David), the next option features cast members Bill Nighy (as Philip) and Penelope Wilton (“Barbara”) and finally, the fourth commentary is by “Zombies.”

Additional bonuses include an extensive collection of outtakes and deleted scenes, the newly prepared featurette titled “Shaun of the Dead: 20 Bloody Years!,” a collection on on-set video diaries, casting tapes, make-up tests and more!!

In other release news, stand-alone DVD and Blu-ray edition, plus a 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack purchasing option of the animation directing team of Chris Renaud and Patrick Delage’s Despicable Me 4 has been dropped into the Sept. 24 release slot.

The ARR works out to 81 days and the domestic box office take was a most-excellent $358 million.   The premium VOD window was launched on Aug. 6, which gave the all-too-eager “Helper” community seven full weeks to distribute their own DVD and Blu-ray editions of the film.

Bonus goodies included deleted, extended and alternate scenes, two animated short films — Benny’s Birthday and Game Over and Over — the “how to draw” tutelage and five featurettes — “The Making of Despicable Me 4,” “Despicable Dialogue,” “Meet the Cast,” “Mega Minion Mayhem” and “Rogues Gallery.”
