Last month, the extended Director's Cut of Ari Aster's Midsommar played in select theaters, but unfortunately this version of the film isn't scheduled for a physical release here in the US. As far as we know, the Director's Cut will on be available exclusively on Apple TV here in the states.
But the folks across the pond are a bit more fortunate, as Amazon has now listed the Director’s Cut of Midsommar on UK Blu-ray, which is dated for release on October 28th. Of course, if you live in the US and have a Region Free player, you could also pick this release up.
"After a family tragedy, a young American couple joins some friends at a midsummer festival in a remote Swedish village. What begins as a carefree summer holiday takes a sinister turn when the insular villagers invite their guests to partake in festivities that grow increasingly unnerving and viscerally disturbing. From the visionary mind of Ari Aster, comes this dread-soaked cinematic fairy tale where a world of darkness unfolds in broad daylight."
The film stars Florence Pugh (upcoming Black Widow and Little Women) as a young woman who reluctantly joins her boyfriend on a summer trip to a remote Swedish village for a midsummer festival, which becomes more and more sinister as the days pass. The film also stars Jack Reynor (Kin, Free Fire, TV’s "Strange Angel"), William Jackson Harper (TV’s "The Good Place", They Remain), and Will Poulter (The Maze Runner, The Revenant).
The theatrical cut of Ari Aster's follow up to Hereditary will be arriving on Digital and On Demand on September 24th, and on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD on October 8th.
