‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit?’ gets Blu-ray release

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? will be released on Blu-ray in 2013 to mark its 25th anniversary.

Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the 1988 hit blends live action and animation to tell a comedy noir story where cartoon characters live alongside real people.

Bob Hoskins stars as private detective Eddie Valiant, while Charles Fleischer provides the voice of the titular bunny. Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd also feature among the film’s cast.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? found success thanks to financial backing from Steven Spielberg and Amblin Entertainment, and went on to win three Academy Awards.

There has been talk of a sequel in recent years, though there have been no developments since producer Don Hahn prompted speculation back in 2010.

The Blu-ray edition will come with three remastered shorts, but a full list of bonus features is yet to be revealed.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? 25th Anniversary Edition will be available from Disney Blu-ray in 2013.
