Universal Studios Home Entertainment has officially announced that it will release on Blu-ray Scott Speer's film Midnight Sun (2017), starring Bella Thorne, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Rob Riggle, Quinn Shephard, and Ken Tremblett. The release will be available for purchase on June 19.

Synopsis: 17-year-old Katie Price (Bella Thorne) has been sheltered since childhood with a rare disease that makes even the smallest amount of sunlight deadly. During the day she is housebound, but after nightfall, Katie can venture out to the local train station and play her guitar for travelers. One night, her dreams come true when she's noticed by Charlie (Patrick Schwarzenegger), whom she has secretly admired for years, and decides to hide her condition from him as the two embark on a uniquely powerful romance over one nearly perfect summer.

Special Features and Technical Specs:

-Midnight Sun: An Inside Look - Featurette
-Optional English SDH and Spanish subtitles for the main feature

Saw this 7x in theatres (without the help of MoviePass) and can't wait to own it on blu.

I can't wait to buy it on Vudu in 4 hours.

It doesn't look like Best Buy will be carrying this in stores, which is surprising for a movie that had a wide theatrcial release.

Well on their website it can be purchased for the low, low, low price of $27.99, which is the price in their weekly circular.

Target has Midnight Sun on shelves.

Supposedly Wal-Mart does too. $19.96.

I was going to wait for $12.99 or less, but might just get it now. Best Buy is really the only retailer who sets sale prices (Amazon will match to follow suit). Without them in the picture, this probably won't be going on sale any time soon.

My local used book store had a previously viewed copy of this Blu-ray for sale a week before release somehow. Not sure if this is indicative of the quality of the movie. I actually have the original Japanese film on Blu-ray, but the movie mainly works because of YUI.

wasn't this made before under a different name: "Everything Everything" ? (with Amandla Stenberg and Nick Robinson)

Haha! There have a been a ton of these movies made over the past 10 years. Two teens fall in love... who seem meant for each other... but one of them has a "rare" incurable disease... and dies at the end... to which the surviving teen's life has been forever changed.

Wish I had known this. Target's website just said "pre-order now" so I figured it wouldn't be in stores. Wal-mart had like 6 copies when I got there today but all the slips had some small damage. I picked the best conditioned one.

Great film. Got it today from the US. Works perfectly on my Region B player. Such a nice movie.

Is it blasphemy for me to admit I actually enjoyed this?

Bella Thorne is super easy on the eyes, Patrick looks quite a bit like his old man and the story is actually rather solid.

Not a knockout like The Fault in Our Stars, but a good film nonetheless.

They're both gorgeous. And it's a good love story.
