What are the plans for the DVD release of the Trilogy?
According to sources, the DVDs will feature interviews with the cast and crew, a “Making of” documentary, behind the scenes footage, and possibly out-takes. Also included will be the original 36-minute documentary that Jackson used to persuade New Line to invest in the film trilogy, which includes design sketches, CGI tests, location models, creature concept art, and test shots of Helm’s Deep battles. It is likely that theatrical trailers and other standard DVD extras will be included as well. There is no information at this point regarding release dates for the DVDs, or whether they will be released individually or as a boxed set. If demand for the DVDs runs high enough, we will probably see individual DVD releases of each film, as well as a boxed set of the trilogy once all three films have completed their theatrical runs.
