It may look similar to Cars, but Disney’s new PLANES movie is related merely in visual vibe, as it focuses more on an underdog airplane than a fan-favorite race car. But that visual approach is surely enough to intrigue kids and parents alike, so listen up to this news about the Planes Blu-ray release date: Disney’s letting the movie fly into retail on November 19. The movie will touch down that day on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital HD and On-Demand featuring a cargo hold full of bonus features.
Planes follows the tale of a crop-dusting plane named Dusty with sky-high dreams. The story took the film to the top of the U.S. box office this summer, holding the #1 family movie in America four weekends in a row. After spreading its wings in theaters, Planes will soar onto Blu-ray with never-before-seen bonus features, including a musical number “Franz’s Song,” deleted scenes and some behind-the-scenes featurettes.
The movie’s bonus features include:
- Exclusive Franz’s Song (approx. 1:40) – Produced exclusively for Blu-ray and HD Digital, this never-before-seen completely finished animated song features the German mini-car, Franz Fliegenhosen, who encourages Dusty on his flight
- Klay’s Flight Plan (approx. 15:00) – Follow Director Klay Hall’s personal journey during the making of “Planes” and discover why his family connection to aviation made “Planes” his perfect project. Fly along with Klay as he lands on a working aircraft carrier to get first-hand experience on the flight deck.
- Deleted Scenes (approx. 3:46) – Director Klay Hall and Producer Traci Balthazor-Flynn introduce deleted scenes from the movie.
- Training Montage (approx. 2:38)
- Taj Mahal (approx. 1:08)
- Meet the Racers (approx. 5:50) – Featurettes introducing racers El Chupacabra (1:15), Ripslinger (1:15), Dusty (:90), and Ishani (:90).
- Top 10 Flyers (approx. 8:00) – ESPN’s Colin Cowherd hosts a fun, fast-paced countdown of the greatest aviators in history
