American Gods Blu-ray Details Have Been Announced

I say "announced" but "gleaned" might be a more appropriate word. According to Blu-ray.com, Lionsgate Home Entertainment and Starz have, in fact, announced that American Gods: The Complete Season One will be available for purchase on October 17. Beyond that, the only detail is that the Blu-ray will contain "over 2 hours of supplemental features".

However, Amazon UK already has the American Gods Blu-ray/DVD releases in stock, which lists the following as bonus features:

• San Diego Comic-Con Panel Footage: Showrunners Bryan Fuller and Michael Greene are joined by Bruce Langley, Yetide Badaki, Pablo Schreiber, Ricky Whittle, Ian McShane and Neil Gaiman at a San Diego Comic-Con panel to celebrate the series

• Ian McShane Interview: The legendary Ian McShane talks candidly about American Gods, Mr Wednesday and the freedoms a show like American Gods gains by not being on network television

• Ricky Whittle & Emily Browning Interview:Your new favourite dysfunctional married couple, Shadow and Laura Moon, discuss their unique dynamic and what it means to them to be part of American Gods

• American Gods Origins with Neil Gaiman:Neil Gaiman returns to Reykjavik to reminisce about how the city fuelled his fascination for Norse folklore, which in turn led to the creation of American Gods.

• Bruce Langley Interview: Technical Boy Bruce Langley talks about the most unpredictable of the New Gods

• Ian McShane and Ricky Whittle Interview: Having been thrust straight into the pantheon of great double acts, the men behind Shadow Moon and Mr Wednesday discuss bringing the characters to life

• Book Vs Show: The defining question when it comes to adaptations, this featurette examines what fans of the book will get from the series and vice versa

• New Gods: A look at the New Gods of American Gods, including Media (Gillian Anderson), Mr World (Crispin Glover) and Technical Boy (Bruce Langley).

• Old Gods: Learn about the cultural roots of the Old Gods seen in the series, from fertility god Bilquis through to the deathly horror of Czernobog and, of course, the enigmatic Wednesday

• What is American Gods? Exclusive insight into the most exciting television event of the year

In addition to the standard American Gods Blu-ray release, it appears that a Steelbook edition exists. I'm not seeing a 4K option or a digital code here, which is a bit of a letdown. However, the U.S. release could be different than the UK version - we'll have to wait and see.
