Hairspray will be coming to Blu-ray exclusively in the fourth quarter of 2007, according to the dual-format supporting studio, New Line Home Entertainment.
The title will hit shelves on November 20th for Blu-ray and standard DVD. The HD-DVD version will be released later in the first half of 2008 due to the format’s lack of regional coding.

The DVD two-disc set and Blu-ray versions will both feature a special packaging design, with a unique two-sided transparent cover, that can either show the adult cast or teenage cast.
Both the two-disc edition and high-def versions will be packed with extras, among them being a behind-the-scenes bonus features which will include a bonus music track -(“I Can Wait”). Also included is a “You Can’t Stop the Beat” documentary, a “Hairspray Extensions” featurette showing performed dance breakdowns, audio commentaries and last but not least, delete scenes.
