Shout Factory is bringing Spike Jonze’s Adaptation starring Nicholas Cage, Meryl Streep and Chris Cooper to Blu-Ray via their Shout Select line on October 20, 2020. The film was nominated for four Academy Awards including Best Actor for Nicolas Cage, Best Actress for Meryl Streep, Best Adapted Screenplay for Charlie Kaufman, and a Best Supporting Actor win for Chris Cooper.
Synopsis: Director Spike Jonze delivers a stunningly original comedy that seamlessly blends fictional characters and situations with the lives of real people: obsessive orchid hunter John Laroche (Chris Cooper), journalist and author Susan Orlean (Meryl Streep), Hollywood screenwriter Charlie Kaufman (Nicolas Cage), and his twin brother Donald (also Cage). As Charlie struggles to adapt Orlean’s best-selling book The Orchid Thief, he writes himself into his own movie. The various stories crash into one another, exploding into a wildly imaginative film. Adaptation, 2002’s most-talked about movie, is at once a hilarious drama and a moving comedy.
