ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: CHIPWRECKED to be Released on DVD, 3/27

Alvin, Simon and Theodore, and their female companions, The Chipettes, have the time of their lives during a family vacation they'll never forget in ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: CHIPWRECKED, debuting on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download on March 27 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. The live-action comedy will also be available as an "Island Adventure" edition on Blu-ray and 2-Disc DVD.

The Chipmunks, Chipettes and their caretaker Dave Seville (Jason Lee; "My Name is Earl") embark on a trip of a lifetime aboard the Carnival Dream cruise ship. Seeking fun and excitement, the Chipmunks turn the luxury cruise liner into their own personal playground. But the ultimate vacation quickly becomes a disaster when the Chipmunks, Dave and Carnival cruise pelican mascot, who turns out to be the chipmunks' old manager, Ian Hawke (David Cross; Megamind), accidentally fall overboard and find themselves 'chipwrecked' on a remote island. Stuck in an unfamiliar territory, the six furry castaways are separated from Dave and must figure out a way to survive on their own for the first time in their lives.

Written and produced by husband and wife duo Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. and Janice Karman, ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: CHIPWRECKED features a star-studded voice cast with Justin Long (Dodgeball) as Alvin, Matthew Gray Gubler ("Criminal Minds") as Simon, Jesse McCartney (Horton Hears a Who!) as Theodore, Christina Applegate ("Up All Night") as Brittany, Anna Faris (What's Your Number?) as Jeanette, and Amy Poehler ("Parks and Recreation") as Eleanor.
