“Daphne & Velma” on Digital, Blu-Ray, and DVD This May

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will be releasing Daphne & Velma on Digital, Blu-ray, and DVD on May 22, 2018! Get ready to enjoy a story about the early days of the two iconic female characters from the Scooby-Doo franchise.

I’ve been looking forward to Daphne & Velma ever since the upcoming live-action film was announced back in November 2017. Produced by Ashley Tisdale and Jennifer Tisdale’s ‘Blondie Girl Productions,’ the movie stars Sarah Jeffery (Disney’s Descendants: Wicked World) and Sarah Gilman (ABC’s Last Man Standing). Courtesy of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, Daphne & Velma will carry a suggested retail price of $19.98 (DVD) and $24.98 (Blu-ray). The total run time is 72 minutes.

Here’s the official synopsis:

State of the art robots and high-tech gadgets are common sights at Ridge Valley High, an innovative center of learning for some of the brightest minds in the country, including new transfer student, the bright & optimistic Daphne Blake (Sarah Jeffery) who is excited to finally go to school with her online bestie, the whip-smart & analytical Velma Dinkley (Sarah Gilman). But not everything is as innocent as it seems as mysterious disappearances begin to plague the top-performing students on campus. Once cheery and full of life, kids now appear in a “zombiefied” state – lifeless and shells of themselves. Can Daphne and Velma learn to work together and save the students or will they become the next victims? Get ready for thrills and laughs as we follow the first adventures of Mystery Inc.’s fierce female duo.

Such a colorful trailer!

“Daphne and Velma, the smart and resourceful women of Scooby-Doo fame, come to life in this all-new mystery,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, WBHE, Vice President, TV Marketing, Family & Animation. “Young girls will be delighted to discover how these clever heroines come together for their very first mystery demonstrating that no mystery is too big for these “meddling” girls to solve!”

Daphne & Velma is produced by Blue Ribbon Content and Blondie Girl Productions with Production Services provided by Lifeboat Productions Inc. Ashley Tisdale (Young & Hungry), Jennifer Tisdale (Her Universe Fashion Show), Amy Kim (Confess, Chosen), Jaime Burke (Cassandra French’s Finishing School, Quantum Break) and Suzi Yoonessi (Olive and Mocha: First Kiss) serve as producers. Yoonessi is also directing from a script written by Kyle Mack & Caitlin Meares.

The bonus features include:

• Daphne & Velma: A New Ambition
• An Updated Classic Mystery
• Iconic Styles of Daphne & Velma Reimagined
• Gag Reel

The Scooby-Doo franchise is one that gels well with other properties and knows how to stay relevant decades later. I’m excited about what the upcoming film brings to the table.
