Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment has announced that Sleeping Beauty: Diamond Edition will be available to own on Blu-ray on October 7, 2014. It will also be available in Digital HD and Disney Movies Anywhere same day.

The 2-Disc Diamond Edition Blu-ray Superset (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy) contains digitally restored picture and sound, a digital copy of the film, and a variety of magical new bonus features, including ‘Once Upon A Parade,’ in which ‘Modern Family’ star Sarah Hyland tells us the tale of Walt Disney World’s new ‘Festival Of Fantasy Parade,’ ‘Art of Evil: Generations Of Disney Villains,’ a legacy piece spotlighting Disney’s favorite villain animator and Maleficent creator Marc Davis, and ‘@DisneyAnimation: Artists in Motion,’ in which Walt Disney Animation Visual Development artist Brittney Lee goes through the process of creating a three dimensional sculpture of Maleficent, completely out of paper.

Additional all-new bonus features include never-before-seen deleted scenes ‘The Fair’ (with deleted character, The Vulture) ‘The Curse is Fulfilled’ and ‘Arrival Of Maleficent,’ plus the Beauty-Oke sing-along to ‘Once Upon A Dream’ in addition to classic DVD bonus features.

Sleeping Beauty tells the wondrous tale of a princess cursed by an evil fairy, protected by three loving fairies and, ultimately, saved by ‘true love’s kiss.’ Featuring the voice talents of renowned opera singer Mary Costa as Sleeping Beauty and Disney stalwart Eleanor Audley as the evil fairy, Maleficent, the film’s vibrant visuals were created by a team that included Milt Kahl and Ollie Johnston, two of Disney’s legendary Nine Old Men and an Academy Award®-nominated score, 1959, adapted from the incandescent music of Peter Tchaikovsky. Sleeping Beauty is the sixteenth animated feature in the Disney animated features canon and was the last animated feature produced by Walt Disney to be based upon a fairy tale. It is the tenth film released as part of Disney’s prestigious Blu-ray Diamond Collection.

I'll be buying this day 1. There is one thing I am confused about though. The 2008 50th Anniversary was 2 Blu Ray discs, did they squeeze all the special features from both discs onto a single disc for this release?

EXCLUSIVE: Watch the deleted Sleeping Beauty scene you've waited 55 years to see

This drawn, deleted scene from Sleeping Beauty is so cool

We love Sleeping Beauty and we're super excited for the diamond edition DVD and Blu-ray release on Oct. 7. Can't wait until then? Take a peek at this special scene that was sketched out, but never fully animated, for the film. We think it's awesome.

The Walt Disney animated film, Sleeping Beauty, was originally released in theaters in 1959. Based on two fairy tales, Little Briar Rose by the Brothers Grimm and The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood by Charles Perrault, Aurora has since become one of our favorite princesses.

This epic animated film took nearly a decade to make and was the last Disney film to use hand-inked cels. But even before the animation began, a live-action version of the film was shot, using actors to help the director and animators get a feel for exactly what should be animated to appear onscreen.

If you've ever traveled to Germany, you may know that Disney's famous Sleeping Beauty castle was modeled after the magnificent Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria. The castle inspires the imagination and makes the perfect setting for a fairy tale.

In this exclusive clip, the three good fairies have just returned Aurora to the castle and given her a crown. Now alone, Aurora sits at her mirror, daydreaming about Prince Phillip, when she hears a voice whisper her name.

She follows the voice up the stairs of the castle where she finds a tiny sewing room. An ugly hag is there waiting for her and tempts Aurora to try her magical "wishing wheel". Well, no princess can turn down a chance to wish to see her true love. Watch our video to find out what happens next!

We can only scratch our heads and wonder why this dramatic scene didn't make it into the film, but we sure are glad we get to see it now.

The Sleeping Beauty diamond edition DVD and Blu-ray will be available on Oct. 7 for your own little princess.
