Avengers: Endgame Digital And Blu-Ray Trailer, Release Date, Special Features Revealed

The biggest movie Marvel has made thus far may be gearing up to take another trip around cinema screens for an epic re-release, but in just over a month, Avengers: Endgame fans won't ever have to head out to theaters to witness the superhero action again. 

Marvel has announced the release dates for the Avengers: Endgame digital and Blu-ray releases. The studio dropped the news through an announcement trailer, uploaded to the Marvel Entertainment YouTube channel and shown above, then shared in a press release the special features included on both versions of the film.

Those interested in owning Avengers: Endgame in digital format can score it on Tuesday, July 30. Marvelites who prefer physical copies of their favorite movies will be able to pick up the Blu-ray version of Endgame two weeks later, on Tuesday, August 13. 

The digital release of Avengers: Endgame includes an exclusive bonus feature called "Steve and Peggy: One Last Dance," which highlights the love story between Chris Evans' Steve Rogers and Hayley Atwell's Peggy Carter as it evolves throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This clip is available on the Digital 4K Ultra HD, HD and SD versions of Endgame, but isn't tucked into the Blu-ray release. Anyone who is a sucker for Steve and Peggy's relationship should definitely consider scooping up Endgame on digital on July 30. 

Both the digital and Blu-ray versions of Avengers: Endgame are packed with extra content, which Marvel Studios claims amounts to "hours of additional screen time," in the form of deleted scenes, a blooper reel, and several featurettes. Bonus content includes a tribute to the late Stan Lee, the comic book mastermind behind a number of the Marvel heroes we know and love; the in-depth true story of how Robert Downey Jr. landed the role of Iron Man; the tale of how Captain America came to be on the silver screen; and the "dramatic story arc" of Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, who – spoiler alert — sacrificed herself during the time heist in Avengers: Endgame. 

Those keen on learning what it's like to direct a Marvel movie can watch co-directors Joe and Anthony Russo recount their experience helming Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. Fans of Chris Hemsworth's squishier physique as the god of thunder Thor in Endgame can discover how the film's team created "Bro Thor." Additionally, the digital and Blu-ray releases of Endgame include a featurette detailing how the all-female battle sequence that came near at the end of the film was made. 

Though there isn't a making of documentary focused on Endgame itself, viewers can enjoy an audio commentary from the Russo brothers and screenwriters Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus.

Marvel promises that there is much more bundled on Avengers: Endgame's home release, focused on fans' "favorite cast members and filmmakers who have shaped the Marvel Cinematic Universe." 

There are several ways to pre-order Avengers: Endgame on Digital 4K Ultra HD, HD and SD: through iTunes, Amazon Prime Video, Vudu, Google Play, Movies Anywhere, Microsoft Movies & TV, and Xfinity. 

Marvel has packaged the physical release of Endgame in various ways as well, giving fans the freedom to choose the type of in-home watching experience they're after. Viewers can pick up the 4K Cinematic Universe Edition (4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and Digital Code) version of Avengers: Endgame, purchase the Multi-Screen Edition (Blu-ray and Digital Code) of the movie, or go the simplest route and order a single DVD. Additionally, both Target and Best Buy are offering store-exclusive versions of Avengers: Endgame. Those wanting to marathon the Avengers franchise in preparation to watch Endgame from their couch with a big bowl of homemade popcorn can purchase the digital bundle that includes The Avengers, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame.

Having already raked in $2.751 billion worldwide, Avengers: Endgame is only going to earn Marvel Studios even more money with its upcoming re-release (which starts on Friday, June 28) and the digital and Blu-ray launches of the film. However, some fans may be disappointed to know that the theatrical re-release apparently doesn't include a lot of what is loaded onto the home release, and could skip out on seeing it in theaters another time in favor of waiting for the digital and Blu-ray launches. Hopefully Marvel's mission to make Endgame the top-earning movie in history is still successful.
