A fascinating look inside the brilliant mind of Edward Snowden and the unveiling of the U.S. government's top secrets, Snowden debuts on Blu-ray and DVD on 3rd April 2017 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Directed by Academy Award® winner Oliver Stone (Platoon, Nixon), this suspenseful drama tackles one of the most important and incredible true stories of the 21st century. The Blu-ray and DVD showcase captivating bonus content including deleted scenes, a behind-the-scenes featurette, and an interview with the elusive Edward Snowden himself.

The film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (50/50, Inception) as Edward Snowden alongside an all-star cast including Shailene Woodley (The Fault in Our Stars, Divergent), Zachary Quinto (Star Trek, American Horror Story), Tom Wilkinson (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Selma), Melissa Leo (The Big Short, The Fighter) and Scott Eastwood (Suicide Squad, Fury).

Snowden, the politically-charged, pulse-pounding thriller reveals the astonishing untold personal story of Edward Snowden (Gordon-Levitt), the controversial figure who exposed shocking illegal surveillance activities by the NSA and became one of the most wanted men in the world. A hero to some and a traitor to others, the riveting story of what led him to that fateful decision makes for what critics call "the most important and galvanising political drama by an American filmmaker in years" (Owen Gleiberman, Variety).
