Warner Bros. has announced the release of their 2011 superhero flick Green Lantern. The release will feature an extended cut of the film and will be available in a 3D combo pack (Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital Copy) for $40.99 and a standard Blu-ray combo pack (Blu-ray, DVD, Digital Copy) for $35.99. Note that the extended cut will not be featured on the Blu-ray 3D disc. Both combo packs will include Ultraviolet compatibility, which allows consumers to stream or download the film to various devices.
Green Lantern hit theaters back in June but failed meet the studio's box office expectations. The critically panned film was directed by Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) and featured Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan alongside Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard and Mark Strong. Warner is hoping the DC film will perform better on home video.
Technical specs have yet to be confirmed, but a list of special features has been made available. These include:
Maximum Movie Mode with PIP
The Universe According to Green Lantern
Ryan Reynolds Becomes Green Lantern
Deleted Scenes
"Justice League #1" Digital Comic
Preview of Green Lantern: The Animated Series

Access code for Sinestro Corp Batman Skin on the Warner Bros. Interactive video game Batman: Arkham City
A Friday release date of October 14th, 2011 has been set for Green Lantern. Stay tuned for an update when pre-orders go up on Amazon.
Update: Pre-orders for both combo packs are now available on Amazon.
