We told you yesterday that Jon Turteltaub’s The Meg will be hitting home video on November 13, being released on Blu-ray, 3D Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD. Prior to that date, the mega-sized shark attack flick will be unleashed digitally on October 30.
Today brings special features info, and unfortunately, no director’s cut or even deleted scenes will be found on the discs. A bummer, given Turteltaub has stated outright that a good deal of gruesome carnage was cut out of the film, but not surprising given the fact that the effects work on much of that excised content was never actually finished.
Here’s what you will be getting on the discs:
- Chomp On This: The Making of The Meg
- Creating the Beast
In The Meg, “A deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below…bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.”
