From Disney and Visionary Director Tim Burton
A Disney Legend for a New Generation Comes Home
On Digital, 4K Ultra
HD™, Blu-ray™ and Movies Anywhere June 25
Extras explore how one of cinema’s most
imaginative filmmakers and an award-winning
cast and crew collaborated with Disney
to bring to life this beloved classic for the entire family
BURBANK, Calif. (May 29, 2019) — “Dumbo,” the
grand live-action adventure from Disney and visionary director Tim
Burton, which expanded on the beloved animated classic and sent spirits
soaring, prepares for a landing on June 25. Disney invites
fans to fall in love again with this heartfelt story, in which
differences are celebrated, family is cherished and dreams take flight,
when it swoops into homes on Digital in HD and 4K Ultra HD™ and Movies
Anywhere, and physically on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray™ and DVD — with
never-before-seen bonus features, deleted scenes, Easter eggs and
bloopers.
Stunning
extras will transport viewers to the set of “Dumbo,” where cast members
Danny DeVito (circus owner Max Medici), Michael Keaton (opportunistic
businessman V.A. Vandevere), Colin Farrell
(war-veteran-turned-elephant-keeper Holt Farrier), Eva Green (stunning
aerialist Colette Marchant), Nico Parker (Farrier’s daughter, Milly)
and Finley Hobbins (Farrier’s son, Joe) share their personal stories of
courage and character. Features explore how Disney’s timeless animated
story was brought to life with an incredibly expressive, lovable, fully
computer-generated baby elephant; the longtime collaboration of Burton,
production designer Rick Heinrichs and costume designer Colleen Atwood,
which resulted in jaw-dropping sets and costumes; and the creation of
the visually colossal Dreamland parade sequence. Also included are nine
deleted scenes, hidden and not-so-hidden Easter eggs, bloopers and a
special performance of “Baby Mine” by Arcade Fire.
In
“Dumbo,” struggling circus owner Max Medici enlists former star Holt
Farrier and his children to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized
ears make him a laughingstock. But when they discover that Dumbo can
fly, the circus makes an incredible comeback, attracting persuasive but
sinister entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere, who recruits the peculiar
pachyderm for his newest, spectacular, larger-than-life entertainment
venture, Dreamland.
“Dumbo”
will be released in several different formats, giving families the
flexibility to watch it on a variety of devices. Viewers can watch the
film in Digital 4K UHD, HD and SD, and bring home a physical copy of
the film as the 4K Ultra HD Edition (4K UHD, Blu-ray and Digital Code),
