Harmony Korine’s edgy Spring Breakers starring James Franco, Ashley Benson, Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, and Rachel Korine will be partying on Blu-ray and DVD beginning July 9.
Spring Breakers was made on the cheap for $5 million in Panama City Beach, Florida and has gone to earn $13.8 million domestically to date. The film is rated fresh at Rotten Tomatoes with a 65% score and should be a hit on Blu-ray and DVD considering the theatrical release never expanded much further beyond 1,100 locations.
Spring Breakers comes to Blu-ray in 2.35:1 1080p video and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. Extras include:
- Breaking it Down: Behind Spring Breakers – A Behind-the-Scenes 3-Part Documentary

Aria struggles with seeing Ezra in the wake of their breakup, and Emily starts to make plans for life after high school. Meanwhile, “A” sets Toby on a new path, what’s in the trunk is revealed, and a shocking discovery reverberates through Rosewood.

Pretty Little Liars has staged sensational surprises in nearly every single episode over the last three seasons, but the biggest shocker to date happened off screen as it was announced on April 30 that ABC Family’s recently announced spin-off was bringing Tyler Blackburn’s Caleb along for the Ravenswood ride.
Now, for the first time, PLL executive producer and Ravenswood co-creator Marlene King is exclusively revealing why Hanna’s hottie was tapped to front the new series.
“In terms of the mythology of Ravenswood, there is a reason his character was chosen,” King tells ETonline. “Caleb has an ambiguous past. He doesn’t know as much about where he comes from compared to the other [characters] and we’re going to use that as we unfold the Ravenswood story.”
Once fans got over the initial shock, thoughts — and Twitter trending topics — immediately turned to the following question: “OMG!!! What does this mean for Haleb?!?!?!?!” Turns out, Ashley Benson had the exact same thought after finding out her scene partner was packing up his laptop and amazing conditioner.
“I was so sad,” Benson recalled of hearing the big news. “This is the thing, I’m so happy for Tyler, he deserves it so much, but he’s like my other half! He’s just amazing. When the day comes to shoot his last scene, I’m not going to be able to do it. I mean, I don’t want to give him away to these other people. But, I talked to Marlene about [how Caleb will be written off PLL] and I’m excited for people to see that because I’m pretty happy with how she told me their story would end.”
So what did Marlene tell Ashley? You know I got that answer. “Hanna and Caleb are such a great couple and we’ve designed this beautiful Casablanca moment for them,” King teased. “Hanna really gives Caleb permission to leave Rosewood and, basically, go to this other show [laughs]. I hope our fans embrace it as much as we’ve embraced it as writers. That’s important to us.”

Today, we have another look at the international trailer for “Spring Breakers” but unlike the first one that was released not long ago, expect to see some uncensored scenes so be warned! It offers a lot more unseen footages from the film just when I thought I couldn’t be any more excited for the premiere!
Ashley Benson, Rachel Korine, Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens are girls gone wild in the just-released, redband-worthy international trailer (via French co. Mars Distribution) for Harmony Korine‘s R-rated Day-Glo coed crime romp, which sneaks racier peeks at what the domestic previews have held back: Drug use, nudity, guns galore, and gratuitous f-bombs dropped by soon-to-be-former tween idols. James Franco also stars as a blinged-out thug rapper with gold in his grill and a gleam in his eye. Spring Breakers releases stateside March 22, 2013 via A24 and Annapurna Pictures.
