Welcome to Castle Rock, the small rural town carved out of the deepest woodland in Maine, in which many of acclaimed, best-selling author Stephen King’s most-loved works of fiction come to life. This forgotten little town is now the setting of one of television’s newest original series, Castle Rock. Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release Castle Rock: The Complete First Season on 4K Ultra HD™ ($44.98 SRP), Blu-ray™ ($29.98 SRP) and DVD ($24.98 SRP) on January 8, 2019. Consumers will be able to own all 10 episodes of the horror series’ exciting debut season along with exclusive bonus features. The 4K Ultra HD™ release will include Blu-ray as well as a Digital Copy of the series. The Blu-ray™ release will feature a Digital Copy of the series.

From Stephen King (Mr. Mercedes, It, 11.22.63) and J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Westworld, 11.22.63), Castle Rock is a new psychological-horror series set in the Stephen King multiverse. Castle Rock, which first premiered on Hulu, is an original story that combines the mythological scale and intimate character storytelling of Stephen King’s best loved works, while weaving an epic saga of darkness and light that’s played out on a few square miles of Maine woodland. Castle Rock has been picked up for a second season on Hulu.

The first season of Castle Rock follows Henry Deaver (André Holland, American Horror Story), a Death Row attorney who returns to Castle Rock, Maine, his hometown, after he receives an anonymous phone call from the infamous Shawshank State Penitentiary. The call is about a nameless young man (Bill Skarsgård, It) who is found locked in an underground cage that’s located in a long-abandoned cell block beneath the prison. Upon his discovery, the mysterious young man, with a sinister and unnerving presence, whispers Henry’s name. Curious about how and why someone left this boy imprisoned, Henry is drawn into the case and attempts to help him. But there are reasons why “The Kid” was imprisoned. And reasons why he should never be set free.

Permeated with a sense of foreboding and dread, the haunting small town of Castle Rock is not willing to let Henry leave. Aside from now having to deal with the strange young man found in the prison, Henry is faced with the fact that his adoptive mother (Sissy Spacek, Carrie), who lives in Castle Rock with retired Sheriff Alan Pangborn (special guest star Scott Glenn), is struggling with the onset of dementia. Reluctantly, Henry stays to figure out just who “The Kid” is and how he wound up imprisoned under such appalling circumstances.

Screw Digital its smoke. Blu-Ray all the way of course !

I honestly wan't expecting a home video release for this, but the fact it's a 4k/Blu combo is amazing. Even though I'm a die-hard Hulu subscriber, this is still a day 1 purchase for me! Here's hoping that "A Clockwork of Horror" is a decent featurette and not some promotional fluff...

Never thought I'd see that sentence in my lifetime.

I honestly didn't think this was good enough to buy. I totally sprung for the 'DVD only' release of Mr. Mercedes, though. It's funny, but prior to seeing either, I would've thought things would shake out the other way around.

I'm surprised this is getting a 4K release, but I'm happy as I think I'll be buying it.

[Aunt Peg]

I really can't wait for this. I thought with JJ Abrams being involved that a Blu Ray release was likely and as I don't stream and its not even playing in my part of the world to have it released so quickly is like a dream come true.

[bryantburnette]

It's crap, but I've got every other Stephen King movie and series, so I'm honor-bound to buy this. Nice to see it getting a physical release; wish I'd actually enjoyed it.

Granted I bought Stranger Things Season 1, but am I the only one who thinks it’s a little redundant to purchase physical media of streaming titles from Hulu, Netflix or Prime?

[bryantburnette]

Yes. Yes you are.
