Disney and Pixar’s “Hoppers” arrives on digital platforms — including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV and Fandango at Home — April 28, followed by a 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD release June 2.
Disney and Pixar’s latest animated film follows Mabel, a compassionate animal lover who uses cutting-edge technology to hop her consciousness into a robotic beaver. On a mission to save a precious glade from destruction, Mabel encounters creatures of all kinds — beavers, bears, reptiles, birds, insects, fish and even an unexpected shark. The heartfelt yet laugh-out-loud adventure explores what it means to be part of something bigger: community, nature and family.
“Hoppers” delivers what critics are calling a “funny, wildly entertaining ride” (Joey Paur, Geek Tyrant). The home release enhances the experience with 4K Ultra HD featuring Dolby Vision visuals and Dolby Atmos audio.
The 4K UHD edition will also be available as a collectible limited-edition SteelBook featuring the film’s cast of furred, feathered, winged and scaled characters.
