‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’ Digital HD, Blu-ray, & 4K Release Includes Deleted Scene, Easter Eggs and More! [Trailer]
While Jason Reitman‘s Ghostbusters: Afterlife isn’t quite the smash-hit Columbia Pictures was hoping for, it performed well enough to breathe new life into the franchise. This official sequel continues to haunt audiences in theaters, but is also heading home to Digital HD on January 4, 2022. Yes, you can watch the third Ghostbusters at home next week.
As reported last week, it will then make its way to 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on February 1, 2022, albeit we now have a full list of extra features, which include a single deleted scene, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and, no commentary. Here’s a breakdown:

Watch the Opening ‘Mortal Kombat II’ Battle Scene Now Ahead of Physical Media Release in July
Sequel Mortal Kombat II is now available to watch at home on Digital before heading to physical media in July, but you can test your might now and watch the opening scene.
Mortal Kombat director Simon McQuoid returns to the helm for the new sequel from a script by Jeremy Slater (“Moon Knight,” Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire).
In Mortal Kombat II, the fan-favorite champions — now joined by Johnny Cage (Karl Urban) — are pitted against one another in the ultimate, no-holds barred, gory battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders.
Adeline Rudolph, Jessica McNamee, Josh Lawson, Ludi Lin, Mehcad Brooks, Tati Gabrielle, Lewis Tan, Damon Herriman, Chin Han, Tadanobu Asano, Joe Taslim, and Hiroyuki Sanada are also part of the ensemble cast of Mortal Kombat II fighters.
Watch the opening below, which introduces a young Kitana (Sophia Xu) as Emperor Shao Kahn (Martyn Ford) prepares to conquer her father, King Jerrod (Desmond Chiam), and her kingdom of Edenia. It sets the sequel’s entire plot in motion.
From New Line Cinema, James Wan’s Atomic Monster, Broken Road Productions, and Fireside Films, Mortal Kombat II is rated R for “strong bloody violence and gore, and language.”
