The cover of the Blu-ray, DVD and Digital set of co-writer-director-producer Justin Lin’s ‘F9,’ from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.

In an ever changing and at-times frightening world, the bond of family is often what keeps people’s spirits lifted and gives them hope that they can survive. That’s certainly the case for the cast, crew and characters of the hit action franchise, ‘The Fast Saga.’ Its latest entry, ‘F9,’ is proving that overcoming conflict is what the characters do best, even when the most terrifying aspects of life are a direct result of one of their relative’s actions.

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment is releasing the drama today, September 21 on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD. The series’ eighth sequel is also currently available digitally. ‘F9’s disc home release includes the original theatrical release and the Director’s Cut, and more than an hour of exclusive bonus content, including feature commentary for both the theatrical and director’s cuts with filmmaker Justin Lin, a gag reel and such featurettes as ‘Justice for Han,’ ‘A Day on Set with Justin Lin’ and ‘John Cena: Supercar Superfan.’

In ‘F9,’ Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) thought he’d left his outlaw life in the rear-view mirror, but not even he can outrun the past. When his forsaken brother Jakob (Cena) unexpectedly resurfaces as an elite assassin, the crew comes back together to help Dom confront the sins of his own past and stop a world-shattering plot.

‘F9’ also stars returning franchise cast members Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Nathalie Emmanuel, Jordana Brewster and Sung Kang, with Helen Mirren and Charlize Theron. The eighth follow-up was helmed by Lin, who also directed the third, fourth, fifth and sixth installments of the series. He also co-wrote the screenplay with Daniel Casey, and served as a producer, alongside Diesel.
