It looks like North American Jeffrey Dean Morgan fans will have something new to view after all. The Accidental Husband is finally coming to DVD in North America November 10! We’ll get our chance to see what the rest of the word has known about for a while. Unless you bought the UK DVD, or watched it online.
But apparently there will be behind the scenes footage with the cast, something the UK release lacked! So this is definitely an Amazon pre-purchase.
Here’s the official news:
– Viewers will be swept off their feet when Sony Pictures Home Entertainment ushers the whimsical romantic comedy The Accidental Husband onto DVD on November 10, 2009 for the SRP of $24.96. A steady stream of shenanigans ensue when a jilted firefighter (Jeffrey Dean Morgan – TV’s “Grey’s Anatomy,” P.S. I Love You) seeks revenge on relationship expert and talk show host, Dr. Emma Lloyd (Uma Thurman – The Producers, Be Cool), who advises his fiancée to leave him at the altar. Directed by Griffin Dunne (Practical Magic, Addicted to Love) and produced by Thurman, The Accidental Husband features an all-star cast including Colin Firth (Mamma Mia!, Bridget Jones’s Diary), Oscar® nominee Sam Shepard (Felon, The Right Stuff), Isabella Rossellini (Wyatt Earp, Infamous) and Justina Machado (TV’s “Six Feet Under,” Torque). The special features promise to deliver satisfaction with the making-of featurette that explores the fun the cast had behind-the-scenes.
The Accidental Husband Synopsis
Firefighter Patrick Sullivan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) finds his life turned upside-down when his fiancée suddenly calls off their pending nuptials per the recommendation of radio love guru Dr. Emma Lloyd (Uma Thurman). Determined to get back at this “love doctor,” Sullivan forges a fake marriage license, “accidentally” marrying him to Emma, who’s already engaged to Richard (Colin Firth). But as Patrick’s charms begin to wear Emma down, she must decide which of these bachelors is her “Mr. Right.” Also starring Sam Shepard, Justina Machado and Isabella Rossellini in this romantic comedy that proves even the experts need to learn a few love lessons now and then.
This is the UK DVD packaging, not North American!
