Based on the real-life courtship between Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, The Big Sick tells the story of Pakistan-born aspiring comedian Kumail, who connects with grad student Emily after one of his standup sets.
The film will be available to stream on September 5 before hitting Blu-ray and DVD on September 19.
In a time of the year usually reserved for gigantic explosions and killer robots, Kumail Nanjiani and Emily Gordon‘s The Big Sick was one of the surprise hits of the past few months.
And like all good comedies, not everything filmed for The Big Sick made its way into the final cut.
