Editing That Thing You Do! (section)

==Home media==
===Initial release===
''That Thing You Do!'' was first released in mid-1997 on VHS and Laserdisc. In 1998, the film became available in the [[DIVX]] format (as with all [[20th Century Fox]] films), rather than [[DVD]].

===First DVD===
After DIVX failed, the film was released on DVD on June 5, 2001. It included the featurette "The Making of ''That Thing You Do!''", and two music videos.

===Extended Edition DVD===
On May 8, 2007, ''Tom Hanks' Extended Edition'' was released on DVD. The film's theatrical cut and an extended cut with 39&nbsp;additional minutes of deleted scenes are included.

Many of the deleted scenes are devoted to character development. A tastefully steamy look at Guy's "make-out" session with Tina at his apartment is included. The extended version also goes more in-depth with Guy's developing relationship with Faye (via mild flirting) and his deteriorating relationship with Tina, as well as Tina's budding relationship with her dentist, Dr. Collins. It also suggests that the character portrayed by Tom Hanks (Mr. White) is not only gay but in a relationship with a man played by former [[National Football League|NFL]] defensive lineman [[Howie Long]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.indiewire.com/2017/10/that-thing-you-do-gay-subplot-twenty-years-later-lgbt-1201883706/ |title='That Thing You Do!'

More camera time is also devoted to the tryst between the bass player and one of the singers of the Chantrellines. In the theatrical cut, this romance was depicted mainly as an unrequited crush on the part of the bass player; in the extended cut it is clearly shown that his efforts were successful.

At the end of the Extended Edition, rather than becoming a studio drummer on the recommendation of Del Paxton, Guy becomes a disc jockey for the jazz station KJZZ and records a documentary series of interviews with legendary jazz musicians.

===2007 DVD repackage re-release===
''That Thing You Do!'' was packaged with ''[[Bachelor Party (1984 film)|Bachelor Party]]'' and ''[[The Man with One Red Shoe]]'' in the ''Tom Hanks Triple Feature'' DVD anthology set. The actual DVD appears to be the original 2001 disc, with the featurette and music videos.

===Blu-ray release===
[[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment]] released the film on Blu-ray on April 2, 2013. The Blu-ray includes the Theatrical and Extended cuts as well as all of the bonus features found on the two-disc DVD.
