It appears Ang Lee's visual feast is coming to both Blu-ray formats this March!
In an early announcement to retailers, 20th Century Fox will be bringing 'Life of Pi' to Blu-ray on March 5.
'Life of Pi - 3D' (2D included) will also be available on the same date.
Based on the best-selling novel by Yann Martel, 'Life of Pi' is a magical adventure story centering on Pi Patel, the precocious son of a zoo keeper. Dwellers in Pondicherry, India, the family decides to move to Canada, hitching a ride on a huge freighter. After a shipwreck, Pi finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a 26-foot lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a 450-pound Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, all fighting for survival.
Specs and supplements have yet to be revealed for the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy combo packs, but suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $39.99 and $49.99 for the Blu-ray 3D.
