Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has tabbed Nov. 5 as the street date for both Blu-ray and DVD editions of director/actor Justin Baldoni’s film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s 2016 best selling novel, It Ends With Us.

The ARR comes in at 88 days and the domestic box office for this Blake Lively vehicle currently stands at an impressive $148 million.   This is against a reported production budget of $25 million, which makes this a very profitable film production for all involved (especially when you add in foreign markets … and the other revenue streams). 

Sony inserted a premium VOD window 46 days into the theatrical run (Sept. 24), which gave eager “Helpers” a full six weeks to peddle their own Blu-ray (and DVD) editions to unsuspecting fans.

There are no bonus features included with this initial release.    

In other release news from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, Oct. 15 will be the release date for a 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack edition of filmmaker Eli Roth’s Thanksgiving.   DVD and Blu-ray selections were initially released at the end of January (not uncommon for the 4K option to arrive later in the physical media release cycle). 

Bonus features (archived from the initial Blu-ray outing) include commentary from writer/director Eli Roth and co-writer Jeff Rendell, deleted and extended scenes, outtakes and a trio of featurettes — “Massachusetts Movies: Eli & Jeff's Early Films,” “Behind the Screams” and “Gore Galore.”

New bonus are two featurettes — “Carve Diem” and “Giving Shanks.”
