HBO Video is set to release The Hard Easy on DVD May 22nd with a suggested retail price of $19.97. 

Directed by Ari Ryan, this “action-packed thrill ride” stars Henry Thomas (E.T., Gangs of New York), David Boreanaz (“Bones”, “Buffy The Vampire Slayer”), Nick Lachey (“Newlyweds”), Vera Farmiga (The Departed), Bruce Dern (“Big Love”, Monster), Peter Weller (“24”) and Gary Busey.
 
Synopsis:
Paul Weston (Thomas) and Roger Hargitay (Boreanaz) do not know each other, but have a similar problem.  Both owe a lot of money and have no conceivable way to pay it back.  A shady opportunity presents itself when they are both approached by separate groups of thieves looking for accomplices in a bank robbery.  At the outset, the heists look simple.  However, an “easy” job gets complicated when the men find themselves involved in the same hold-up at the same time. 

Things heat up as the two protagonists, a used car salesman and yuppie stock broker, are caught in a gun battle with each other and the authorities.  Tension mounts as Paul and Roger get caught up in the criminal underworld and begin to realize that nothing is as it seems and only the lucky survive.
 
Special Features include:
Bloopers
Behind-the-Scenes interviews with cast and crew and an audio commentary with the director Ari Ryan and producer Scott Gold.

The Hard Easy is now available for pre-order at Amazon. As of yet, there is not a release date for the UK. Visit the DVD database for more information.
