Next year, Summit Entertainment will bring 50/50 to Blu-ray. Director Jonathan Levine's dramedy focuses on a young man (Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Inception) diagnosed with cancer.
Summit's Blu-ray presents the film in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 with a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track. The disc also contains the following bonuses:
Audio commentary
Three behind-the-scenes featurettes:
- The Story of 50/50
- Life inspires Art
- Seek & Destroy
Deleted scenes
In addition, Amazon is offering a special $5 coupon to be used towards 50/50 pre-orders. Consumers who wish to take advantage of this offer need to add the 50/50 Blu-ray to their Amazon shopping cart and start the checkout process. When "5O5OFILM" is entered in the "Gift Cards & Promotional Codes" box that appears during the "Shipping and Payment" stage, $5 will be deducted from the order total.
Currently, Amazon has set the Blu-ray's cost at $21.49, which the coupon drops to $16.49. Should Amazon reduce the price between now and whenever 50/50 officially streets, the $5 discount will also apply to the lower price, provided customers lock in the coupon while Amazon is still offering it.
The online retailer has not specified for how long the promotion will be available.
50/50 is expected to street on January 24th, 2012.
