A Disney Legend for a New Generation Comes Home On Digital, 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and Movies Anywhere June 25th, 2019.
DUMBO, the grand live-action adventure from Disney and visionary director Tim Burton, which expanded on the beloved animated classic and sent spirits soaring, prepares for a landing on June 25th, 2019. Fall in love again with this heartfelt story when it swoops into homes on Digital in HD and 4K Ultra HD and Movies Anywhere, and physically on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD – with never-before-seen bonus features, deleted scenes, bloopers and more! Check out the official movie trailer below.
Stunning extras will transport viewers to the set of “Dumbo,” where cast members Danny DeVito (circus owner Max Medici), Michael Keaton (opportunistic businessman V.A. Vandevere), Colin Farrell (war-veteran-turned-elephant-keeper Holt Farrier), Eva Green (stunning aerialist Colette Marchant), Nico Parker (Farrier’s daughter, Milly) and Finley Hobbins (Farrier’s son, Joe) share their personal stories of courage and character. Features explore how Disney’s timeless animated story was brought to life with an incredibly expressive, lovable, fully computer-generated baby elephant; the longtime collaboration of Burton, production designer Rick Heinrichs and costume designer Colleen Atwood, which resulted in jaw-dropping sets and costumes; and the creation of the visually colossal Dreamland parade sequence. Also included are nine deleted scenes, hidden and not-so-hidden Easter eggs, bloopers and a special performance of “Baby Mine” by Arcade Fire.
In “Dumbo,” struggling circus owner Max Medici enlists former star Holt Farrier and his children to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized ears make him a laughingstock. But when they discover that Dumbo can fly, the circus makes an incredible comeback, attracting persuasive but sinister entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere, who recruits the peculiar pachyderm for his newest, spectacular, larger-than-life entertainment venture, Dreamland.

I sat down with both of my kids last weekend to watch the movie. If you hold family movie nights, its a great title to add to your viewing list. In my honest opinion, its a movie that the entire family will enjoy (little kids up through older adults). It’s rated PG and runs for approximately 111 minutes.
The story line is entertaining and well-written. The four main actors in the movie are: Colin Farrell, Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito and Eva Green. Both of my kids loved the story line of a baby elephant who can really fly and becomes the hero in the story. The movie is entertaining from start to finish with plenty of humor along the way. On our movie rating scale we rate it 7 1/2 popcorn buckets out of 10 popcorn buckets. A great addition to your movie and DVD collection.
