Amazon and Best Buy are currently taking pre-orders for this on DVD only. Amazon has a listing for the Blu-ray but says it is currently unavailable. Best Buy does not currently appear to have a listing for the Blu-ray at all.

Knock on wood, but I almost wonder if they have decided to drop the Blu-ray release due to the film's low box office gross. Its total is only $367,849.

I am looking forward to a blind buy of this film. Due to the pandemic, I did not feel comfortable attending when it briefly screened here a couple months ago. But I love both Eva Noblezada and Lea Salonga as performers and am excited to see the film when it becomes available. If the Blu-ray doesn't materialize, I would still get the DVD, but it's very weird that one format has gone up for pre-order before the other one. That is not usually the case.

Here's hoping that Sony has not decided to deviate from the press release and will indeed release this on Blu-ray. Aside from combo packs, I don't remember the last time I bought a DVD. At the moment, I've locked that in from Amazon for $14.99, although would love to cancel it and replace it with a Blu-ray order if the option to do so does come through.

Amazon finally did put up the Blu-ray version for pre-order.
