Just about half a year after a great opening reception, Disney’s live-action adaptation of Cinderella (2015) hits the shelves on Blu-Ray and DVD. Presented in stunning HD, the film can now be watched again and again, just like its cartoon predecessor.

Along with the film itself, the usual sound and caption settings, and previews for new films, the disks also contain various special features that can make your experience watching Cinderella even better.

The DVD’s special features include:

  • Ella’s Furry Friends: This feature gives audiences a closer look at the animals of Cinderella. Interviews with the crew in charge of the animals reveal how much work goes into making the cutest cast members work well together.
  • Frozen Fever: This Frozen-themed short, already well-known for its humor and catchy song “Making Today a Perfect Day”, shows what happens to the characters on Anna’s 18th birthday.

The Blu-Ray is loaded with even more bonus content:

  • A Fairy Tale Comes to Life: In this special feature, the minds behind the film discuss the universality of Cinderella’s story. This feature traces not only the history of the Cinderella, but also allows the writers, actors, and creators to speak on the changes they chose to make in this modern re-telling of the tale.
  •  Costume Test Fun: This silly feature shows clips of the cast and crew modeling the costume work of designer Sandy Powell and her team. Fun and lighthearted, these clips show the cast interacting with one another while displaying the diversity of the costumes made for the film.
  • Staging the Ball: This feature has cast and crew interviews describing the work that went into making the fairy tale ball, including the classic staircase and dance scenes.
  • Alternative Opening: Ella’s Childhood: Director Kenneth Branagh presents a different opening of Cinderella which includes more of young Ella’s relationship with her family and her animal friends.
  • Ella’s Furry Friends
  • Frozen Fever

Whether or not you’ve already seen the film (it’s great for all kinds of audiences!) this copy of Disney’s live-action adaptation is sure to add a magical touch to any movie collection.

The Blu-Ray + DVD set of Cinderella is available now, so be sure to pick up your copy today!
