The Last Jedi Blu-ray trailer announces March release date

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI wasn’t met with the same kind of uproarious praise and admiration from fans that THE FORCE AWAKENS was, but that didn’t stop the movie from being the biggest one of the year. No doubt it will be one of the biggest Blu-rays of 2018, and now we have confirmed date for when we can storm the stores and beat each other whilst grabbing for copies – March 27. The announcement came via a trailer for the at-home release, showing off tons of footage they wouldn’t dare show before the movie’s release, like of ghost Yoda and Luke (Mark Hamill) on Crait.

The trailer also teases some of the special features, including a making-of documentary and 14 deleted scenes. That’s a pretty good amount, and no doubt all us fanboys will be pouring over them with a level intensity and focus we wouldn’t even dream of applying to any other aspect of our lives. You can also get a closer look at the Blu-ray covers and other special features below, as well as the Target exclusive cover! (via Blu-ray.com)
