Walt Disney to release collector’s edition DVD of Hannah Montana on 18 November
MUMBAI: The Walt Disney will release a special collector’s edition DVD set of its hugely popular series Hannah Montana on 18 November in US and Canada.
The special edition DVD set – Hannah Montana: The Complete First Season – will have 26 episodes of Disney Channel‘s original series in four-discs.
Miley Cyrus stars as the 14-year-old pop superstar with a double life, joined by Emily Osment, Jason Earles, Billy Ray Cyrus, Mitchell Musso and Moises Arias as her friends and family. At home and school, she‘s Miley Stewart, a typical teenager, but when the lights go down and the curtain goes up, she emerges as the glamorous and talented Hannah Montana.
Having the ‘best of both worlds’ is a complicated proposition, and keeping her identity under wraps leads Miley and her friends into some hilarious capers as she tries to balance her normal life with her rock star persona.
The package will have 17 episodes never before offered on DVD and a behind-the-scenes featurette with Miley Cyrus. The bonus features include Back Home Again with Miley, where fans can join her for a visit to her hometown: Nashville Tennessee.
The DVD set is priced at $39.99 and the running time is 588 minutes.
