Synopsis

Release Date:

March 2,2010

Escape to a land of fantasy when Where the Wild Things Are arrives on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD March 2nd from Warner Home Video. Based on the highly awarded, critically acclaimed children’s book, innovative director, Spike Jonze, collaborates with celebrated author Maurice Sendak to bring one of the most beloved books of all time to the big screen...a classic story about childhood and the places we go to figure out the world we live in.

Where the Wild Things Are follows Max, a rambunctious and sensitive boy who feels misunderstood at home, as he escapes to where the Wild Things are. Max lands on an island where he meets mysterious and strange creatures whose emotions are as wild and unpredictable as their actions and who are desperately longing for a leader to guide them, just as Max longs for a kingdom to rule. When Max is crowned king, he promises to create a place where everyone will be happy. But Max soon finds that ruling his kingdom is not so easy and his relationships prove to be more complicated than he originally thought.

Where the Wild Things Are is directed by Academy Award™ nominee Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation) and stars newcomer Max Record, Emmy Award™ winner James Gandolfini (The Sopranos), Academy Award™ winner Forrest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland, Street Kings), Academy Award™ nominee Catherine Keener (The Soloist, Into the Wild), Mark Ruffalo and Academy Award™ winner Chris Cooper (Syriana, Adaptation).

Where the Wild Things Are will be available on Blu-ray Combo Pack and on single disc DVD. The Combo Pack includes Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Copy of the movie.

An adaptation of Maurice Sendak's legendary children's story in which Max, a disobedient little boy, is sent to bed by his mother without any supper. Feeling hurt and unloved, he channels his anger, and instead of continuing his mischievous antics in his room, he creates his own imaginary world which includes a forest, a massive ocean and a small boat, which he uses to sail away to a land inhabited by monsters - Wild Things - who crown him king.
