For the week of February 16th, Disney and 20th Century Studios have a Blu-ray and 4K UHD release for Dan Trachtenberg's Predator: Badlands, starring Elle Fanning, Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi, Ravi Narayan, Michael Homick, Stefan Grube and Reuben de Jong.

Also coming from Disney and Searchlight Pictures is a Blu-ray for Hikari's Rental Family, starring Brendan Fraser, Takehiro Hira, Mari Yamamoto, Shannon Mahina Gorman, Akira Emoto and Helen Sadler.
Description: Set in modern-day Tokyo, HIKARI's Rental Family stars Academy Award®–winning Brendan Fraser as a has-been American actor searching for purpose and belonging in a society where he feels increasingly adrift. An unexpected acting call leads him to a "rental family" agency, where he is hired to play stand-in roles for strangers seeking connection. As performance begins to blur with reality, the immersive role-playing awakens his humanity and compassion, drawing him deeply into his clients' lives and pushing him off-script whenever his empathetic heart takes over. Searchlight's Rental Family channels the emotional depth of award-winning director, producer, and co-writer HIKARI (Beef, Tokyo Vice, 37 Seconds), who believes cinema "allows us to view others with empathy, creates space for conversation, and see parts of ourselves we did not know existed."
Disney's Blu-ray of Rental Family contains deleted / extended scenes and the featurette Rental Family Revealed.
