Disney has announced the next wave of Marvel/Star Wars Disney+ series to be getting physical releases, all of which arrive next month!
After Disney finally gave some of their Disney+ exclusive shows physical releases last year (all of which were impressive and proved the need for them), fans have been eagerly awaiting the next slate of releases. Today, Disney announced four new 4K Ultra HD/blu-ray releases coming on April 30th:
Marvel Studios’ The Falcon and The Winter Soldier: The Complete First Season
Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight: The Complete First Season
Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi – The Complete Series
Star Wars: Andor – The Complete First Season
Whew! Andor and Obi-Wan Kenobi! The Star Wars fan in me is absolutely jumping for joy (hopefully the final season of The Clone Wars happens soon too), but the Marvel offerings are also solid. As someone who enjoyed Moon Knight more than most, and it’s visual style, I’m super excited to revisit it next month.
As with the previous releases, the Steelbook Collector’s Editions come with new box art designed by Attila Szarka, and will include some concept art cards to boot. Below you can find the details on each individual release, including all the bonus features that will be included!
