The 2024 film “We Live in Time,” directed by John Crowley, will be released on Blu-ray Disc on January 7th via A24. It stars Andrew Garfield, Florence Pugh, and Grace Delaney. This movie has been deemed “Certified Fresh,” based on critic reviews, over at Rotten Tomatoes.

The Blu-ray’s tech specs include a 1080p HD video presentation in the 2.39:1 aspect ratio and Dolby Atmos sound. The standard Blu-ray is now available for preorder at Amazon. NOTE: This marks one of the first, if not the first, A24 release to get distribution via other retailers for a standard Blu-ray release. However, as you’ll hear me discuss a bit further down, the A24 store will bring out an exclusive Special Edition version on Blu-ray. The bonus materials set to be included with the release(s) are listed below.

  • Commentary with Director John Crowley and Writer Nick Payne
  • “A Whole Life: The Making of We Live in Time” Featurette

It’s certainly worth noting, as previously discussed, that “We Live in Time” will get a Special Edition Blu-ray Disc release available exclusively via the A24 store, in January. It will feature exclusive artwork and packaging as well as physical extras in the form of six collectible postcards featuring on set photography by Peter Mountain. The Special Edition Blu-ray is now available for preorder directly via A24’s store.
