'Kinky Boots' is heading to Blu-ray and might be a stay-in gem
As I prepare for an onslaught of fresh Date Night or Nahhh…. bae’downs in the coming days, buzz about Kinky Boots heading to Blu-ray on May 31st might be one you can save some popcorn money on and have a true stay-in date night experience.
The official details are below but rest assured, if given the opportunity to review - you can prepare to find out if this is worth getting your hands on for the traditional wine and dine indoors at home or if it’s worth gifting for a family member or friend.
The hilarious and inspiring classic KINKY BOOTS arrives for the first time ever on Blu-ray May 31, 2022 from Paramount Home Entertainment.
Featuring a Golden Globe®-nominated* performance by Chiwetel Ejiofor (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness), as well as terrific performances by Joel Edgerton (The Green Knight), Sarah-Jane Potts (The Chameleon), and Nick Frost (Shaun of the Dead), KINKY BOOTS is a refreshing, feel-good film that proves the best way to fit in is to stand out. The film was inspired by the real-life story of a family-owned shoe factory in England and ultimately inspired a Broadway musical that earned six Tony Awards, including Best Original Score, Best Actor and Best Musical.
For generations, the Price family has made very sensible, very conservative shoes for men. But to save the business from imminent bankruptcy, young Charlie Price (Edgerton) turns to an unlikely new creative consultant: a fabulous drag performer (Ejiofor) whose creative style and wild designs are a breath of fresh air in the stuffy old factory.
The KINKY BOOTS Blu-ray features access to a digital copy of the film and legacy bonus content, including audio commentary with the director and members of the cast, deleted scenes, and behind-the-scenes featurettes. Bonus material is detailed below:
