Even though The Hunger Games continues to rake in the dough in theaters, fans of Katniss Everdeen won't have to wait long before they can bring her heroic fight home for themselves. Lionsgate has confirmed that The Hunger Games will hit DVD and Blu-Ray at 12:01AM on August 18th. That's a Saturday, people. The $630M+ blockbuster will be available on 2-Disc DVD, 2-Disc Blu-Ray, VOD, and digital download.
The 2-Disc sets will each feature over three hours of bonus content, marking this as the biggest home entertainment launch in Lionsgate's history. Of course there will be an interview with director Gary Ross, and an 8-part documentary titled The World is Watching: Making of The Hunger Games. The full-length propaganda film shown during the Reaping scene will also be included.
Lionsgate's 12-week build up to the August 18th release begins on May 25th when The Hunger Games is made available for pre-order. So on Friday, be sure to head here to be the first to buy your copy! Check out the special DVD trailer below....
