Disney has announced details of the home video release of the 20th Century Studios film, “The Amateur”, which will be available on digital platforms and physical media later this summer.

This film tells the gripping journey of Charlie Heller (Rami Malek) is a brilliant, but deeply introverted decoder for the CIA working out of a basement office at headquarters in Langley whose life is turned upside down when his wife is killed in a London terrorist attack. When his supervisors refuse to take action, he takes matters into his own hands, embarking on a dangerous trek across the globe to track down those responsible, his intelligence serving as the ultimate weapon for eluding his pursuers and achieving his revenge.

The home video versions will allow audiences to uncover additional intel through bonus features that shed new light on Heller’s world including deleted scenes that explore his relationship with wife Sarah (Rachel Brosnahan) and reveal more about his enigmatic informer, Inquiline (Caitríona Balfe).
