While attending Comic-Con this past July in beautiful San Diego, a highlight every year for me, I was lucky enough to score free passes to attend a little known movie at the time, The Devil’s Double. If it wasn’t for the preview I caught of the film months before, I would have probably walked in expecting it to be a cheesy horror film and I would have been SO wrong. Thankfully, for everyone who missed the edge of your seat flick, Lionsgate will be delivering the goods this fall with a Blu-ray release this November. Check out the short press release below and pre-order your copy now!
| Based on the action-packed, unbelievable true story of money, power and opulent decadence, Lionsgate brings The Devil’s Double to Blu-ray Disc, DVD, Digital Download and On Demand this November. This white-knuckle trip deep into the lawless playground of excess and violence is highlighted by a star-making turn from Dominic Cooper (Captain America: The First Avenger) in an unforgettable dual performance as Saddam Hussein’s sadistic party-boy son, the “Black Prince” Uday, as well as army lieutenant Latif Yahia, the man thrust into the highest echelons of the “royal family” when he’s ordered to become Uday’s body double.
Hailed as “remarkable and award-worthy” (Pete Hammond, Backstage Magazine), the film was directed by Lee Tamahori (Die Another Day). The Devil’s Double bonus materials include two featurettes examining the “making of” the film and a behind-the-scenes look at Dominic’s performance and transformation into these characters, plus an interview with the real “Devil’s Double,” Latif Yahia and an audio commentary with Tamahori.
