Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has officially announced that it will release on Blu-ray Ben Falcone's comedy Life of the Party (2018), starring Melissa McCarthy, Gillian Jacobs, Christina Aguilera, Julie Bowen, and Adria Arjona. The release will be available for purchase on August 7.
When her husband suddenly dumps her, longtime dedicated housewife Deanna (McCarthy) turns regret into reset by going back to college…landing in the same class and school as her daughter, who's not entirely sold on the idea. Plunging headlong into the campus experience, the increasingly outspoken Deanna—now Dee Rock—embraces freedom, fun and frat boys on her own terms, finding her true self in a senior year no one ever expected.
Falcone's behind-the-scenes creative team includes director of photography Julio Macat ("The Boss," "Horrible Bosses 2," "Daddy's Home"), production designer Rusty Smith ("The Boss"), editor Brian Olds ("Central Intelligence"), and costume designer Louise Mingenbach (the "The Hangover" franchise) with music by Fil Eisler ("How to Be Single," TV's "Empire"). A New Line Cinema production, "Life of the Party" will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
McCarthy and Falcone co-wrote the screenplay and produced through their production company, On the Day Production. Chris Henchy is also producing the film, with David Siegel serving as executive producer.
