Caprica Comes to DVD

Want to be the first person to see the Battlestar Galactica prequel Caprica? Simply get up bright and early on April 21st and buy the Digital Download. This limited-edition uncut and unrated version will be also be available on DVD so you can see it all long before the series’ broadcast premiere on SyFy in 2010.

Here’s how it goes:
An astonishing breakthrough is taking shape on the planet Caprica. The rapidly evolving spheres of human and mechanical engineering have collided, along with the fates of two families. Joined by tragedy in an explosive instant of terror, two rival clans led by powerful patriarchs, Joseph Adama (Esai Morales, Jericho) and Daniel Graystone (Eric Stoltz, The Butterfly Effect) duel in an era of questionable ethics, corporate machinations and unbridled personal ambition as the final war for humanity looms.  The latest phenomenon from the executive producers of Battlestar Galactica (Ronald D. Moore and David Eick), set in a time over 50 years earlier, Caprica is entirely its own world – provocative, thrilling and startling relevant to our own.

The DVD has several great bonus features including commentary by Ronald D. Moore and David Eick, video blogs, “The Director’s Process,” “The Birth of a Cyclon,” “The V Club” and “What the Frak is Caprica.”  Learn more about the DVD by visiting the official site.
