Paramount Home Media Distribution announced today that Robert Zemeckis’ Flight, starring Denzel Washington, will be available on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital Download and On Demand on February 5th.
Written by John Gatins, the film tells the story of Whip Whitaker (Washington), a commercial airline pilot who miraculously lands a plummeting airplane during a breathtaking sequence. But despite his heroics, Whip comes under investigation and begins what may be an even more harrowing personal descent.
Flight also stars John Goodman, Don Cheadle, Kelly Reilly, Bruce Greenwood, Melissa Leo and Brian Geraghty.
The film will be available in a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack with UltraViolet and special features that take audiences behind-the-scenes to learn about the film’s journey to the screen, how the filmmakers created the terrifying plane crash, and more.
