The remaining two discs are packed with bonus features, including introductions by directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, a making-of documentary, video essays, lyric videos, and an art book. The DVD and Blu-ray editions also include bonus content, showcasing Criterion's commitment to presenting films "as its maker would want it seen."

The release, available for preorder at $49.95 from both Amazon and Criterion.com, signals a rare physical release for a Netflix original title and is a significant milestone for fans and collectors.
