DreamWorks Animation’s hit prehistoric family adventure is heading to living rooms everywhere; bonus features including featurettes, gag reel, deleted scenes and even ‘Stone Age Snack Attack’ recipes; available on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray, and DVD February 23.

DreamWorks Animation presents The Croods: A New Age, on Digital February 9, 2021 and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray, and DVD February 23, 2021, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Keep the adventure going with The Croods: A New Age and go beyond the film with two exclusive animated shorts, a gag reel, deleted scenes and activities the whole family can enjoy together.

The first prehistoric family is ready for another rocking adventure! The Croods have survived fanged beasts, natural disasters, and even young love, but now they must face their biggest challenge yet: another family! In search of a new home, the Croods discover a walled-in paradise created by the sophisticated Betterman family (emphasis on the “better”). As they try to coexist, differences between the two families escalate into a full-blown feud. But when a new threat forces both families to embark on an epic adventure, they must all learn to work together...or they will all go extinct!

The animated family comedy adventure is brought to life with a star-studded cast, including Ryan Reynolds (Free Guy, Deadpool); Emma Stone (La La Land, The Amazing Spider-Man); Nicolas Cage (Face/Off); Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones); Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars: Episode VIII); and Leslie Mann (Blocked, Knocked Up). The Croods: A New Age is directed by Joel Crawford (Trolls Holiday) and produced by Mark Swift (Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted, Captain Underpants, Penguins of Madagascar).
