From Universal Pictures Home Entertainment: Sisters

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif., Feb. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Comedy superstars Tina Fey ("30 Rock," "SNL") and Amy Poehler ("Parks and Recreation," "SNL") reunite in Sisters, the uproarious hit coming to Digital HD on March 1, 2016, and Blu-ray™, DVD and On Demand on March 15, 2016, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. From Pitch Perfect director Jason Moore, Sisters is a "hilarious, heartfelt and downright dysfunctional" (Rama's Screen) delight, perfect to share with friends — and relatives. The Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital HD versions feature even more of Tina and Amy's outrageous shenanigans in a new Unrated Version, as well as over an hour of deleted and extended scenes, gag reel and more!

When the Ellis sisters, the always-responsible Maura (Poehler) and impossibly hotheaded Kate (Fey), receive word from their retired mom and dad that their family home is on the market, they discover they have one weekend left to clean out the old junk in their bedroom. As they comb through the artifacts of their teen years, Maura and Kate's trip down memory lane leads them to a seemingly crazy plan. Looking to recapture their glory days, the sisters throw one final "Ellis Island" blowout for their classmates, resulting in the cathartic rager that a bunch of ground-down adults really need.

Produced by Tina Fey and Jay Roach (Meet the Parents franchise) and executive-produced by Amy Poehler from a script by Paula Pell ("Saturday Night Live," "30 Rock"), Sisters also features an all-star comedy cast including Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids), Ike Barinholtz (Neighbors), John Leguizamo (Ride Along), John Cena (Trainwreck), James Brolin (Catch Me If You Can), Dianne Wiest (Hannah and Her Sisters), Rachel Dratch ("30 Rock"), Samantha Bee ("The Daily Show") and Kate McKinnon ("Saturday Night Live").
