Despite being considered as divisive to some fans, Star Wars: The Last Jedi still managed to be one of the most successful movies to come out of 2017, and the home video release is set for this May. A new trailer has come out for the in-home launch, and it promises to contain over two hours of bonus features.

Movies don't usually promise this much amount of content, but with Star Wars being as big as it is, it will definitely be a treat for some die-hard fans. I thought the movie was fine in itself, but I would still like to see what scenes didn't make the cut. Not to mention I'm also a sucker for all things behind-the-scenes.
Lucasfilm has been trying their best to juggle marketing for Solo: A Star Wars Story and the home release of The Last Jedi. Hopefully with this out of the way, they can put more focus on selling the Solo spinoff now, without any distraction to the fans.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi hits digital March 13, and Blu-Ray/DVD on March 27.
