Space Chimps Blasts onto DVD November 25
From one of the primates that produced Shrek comes Space Chimps, a side-splitting intergalactic CGI animated comedy from Vanguard Animation (Valiant, Happily N’Ever After), rocketing onto DVD and Blu-ray Disc (BD) on November 25th from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and Starz Media. A chimp-errific hilarious adventure that is “delightful from beginning to end” (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times), Space Chimps centers on the story of Ham III, the grandson of the first chimpanzee in space, who is recruited to join two NASA chimps, the fearless Lieutenant Luna and the uptight Titan, on an important mission to retrieve a wayward craft. However, things get a little hairy when they find out that they were sent on a space ship with no plans to return to Earth. Ham III has to muster the courage and channel his inner chimp to get them home, while saving the peaceful inhabitants of a distant planet from their evil dictator.
The Space Chimps DVD is filled with bonus features the whole family will go bananas over, including a behind-the-scenes casting session, still gallery and more, plus the Blu-ray Disc includes a fun-filled BD-exclusive space-themed trivia track! The Space Chimps DVD will be priced to own at $29.98 U.S. / $43.48 Canada and the Blu-ray Disc will be available for $39.99 U.S. / $49.98 Canada.
