The certified fresh (Rotten Tomatoes) quirky comedy Asteroid City featuring an ensemble cast including Jason Schwartzman, Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Bryan Cranston, Tilda Swinton and many more is bound for Blu-ray on August 15. Digital arrives on August 11.
A fictional American desert town, circa 1955. Junior Stargazers and Space Cadets from across the country assemble for the annual Asteroid Day celebration -- but the scholarly competition is spectacularly upended by world-changing events.
