Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced that it will bring to Blu-ray Scott Cooper's crime thriller Black Mass (2015), starring Johnny Depp, Benedict Cumberbatch, Dakota Johnson, Juno Temple, Kevin Bacon, and Peter Sarsgaard. The release will be available for purchase on February 16, 2016.
In 1970s South Boston, FBI Agent John Connolly (Edgerton) persuades Irish mobster James "Whitey" Bulger (Depp) to collaborate with the FBI and eliminate a common enemy: the Italian mob. The drama tells the story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement, consolidate power, and become one of the most ruthless and powerful gangsters in Boston history.
Cooper directed "Black Mass" from a screenplay by Mark Mallouk and Jez Butterworth, based on the book by Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neill. John Lesher, Brian Oliver, Scott Cooper, Patrick McCormick and Tyler Thompson produced the film, with Brett Ratner, James Packer, Peter Mallouk, Ray Mallouk, Christopher Woodrow, Brett Granstaff, Gary Granstaff, Phil Hunt and Compton Ross serving as executive producers.
The behind-the-scenes creative team was led by director of photography Masanobu Takayanagi ("Silver Linings Playbook," "Out of the Furnace"), production designer Stefania Cella ("The Great Beauty"), Oscar-nominated editor David Rosenbloom ("The Insider"), and costume designer Kasia Walicka-Maimone ("Foxcatcher").
